2/4 Card:
Wright State -4
Colorado State -2
————————————
Wright State -4 : You have to love the home advantage in this matchup tonight. As you know, this game was postponed from last night due to inclement weather. The Detroit players were forced to hang out in their hotel rooms for an extra day as they had already made the trip to Dayton. This may not mean much, but glad to have that scenario in our favor for tonight. Wright State has dominated Detroit historically as well. Last season, they won a back-to-back in Detroit by 23 & 13 points. Both teams returned big minutes from last season, so there is no reason to expect a huge difference. The Raiders can get Basile going easily, and there should be many fast break points to be had for Calvin and Holden. Wright State has a massive coaching advantage with Scott Nagy, and I expect the Nutter Center to be rocking on a Friday night. The Raiders have a very solid student section for a mid-major program. Keep an eye on Andrew Welage. He has been hitting big threes recently, and finding some form. He can be a key piece off of the bench if shots are going down.
Score Prediction: Wright State 82 – Detroit 70
Colorado State -2 : Looks like we will be gaining some massive CLV on this line. I am seeing the Rams at -4 at some books. Rightfully, so. I would have played this number to -5. This is the perfect “get right” spot for Colorado State after dropping back-to-back games. Moby Arena should be electric tonight, and that is bad news for the Aztecs. San Diego State has been downright awful on the road this season against stiff competition. They were blown out by Michigan and Utah State, and also dropped one at BYU which is starting to look more ugly as the losses pile up for the Cougars. This is also a major revenge spot for the Rams. They took their undefeated record to Viejas and got absolutely destroyed back in January. I think this will play out similarly to the Arizona/UCLA game from last night. Revenge will be served cold with a comfortable Rams victory. Look for David Roddy to have a big night. 15, 15, & 17 in his last three outings vs the Aztecs. He is a big game player. He knows they need this one.
Score Prediction: Colorado State 72 – SDSU 62
Best of luck! Let’s snipe this one y’all!!
