To the West we go for a showdown from Pac-12, where we will try to cover a big spread here. California Bears and Washington State Cougars will be rivals, with the hosts seem capable of pushing Arizona to the top this year.
The Bears are at 4-0 (4-0 ATS), 3's victories beyond all convincing against remarkable opponents and a winning debut within. The Cougars at the bottom of Pac-12 with record 1-4, and ATS 2-3. 2 defeats and a win in both matches within.
In a full form, the Bears broke up 3 days in Washington within 82-56, easily covering -9. In today's match we meet for the first time at the conference as a favorite of two, a fair one as it runs a 4 series win with super numbers and performance in most statistical categories. This year's start is the best in 3 last years, while in the current winning streak of Cali. shoots with 52% (48% 3pt). Overall, it touches the 84 points on the conference, over 70% on shots, 34 rebounds / games, 18sticks / Matches. Defending the numbers sympathetically in an aggressive conference with passive 71, allowing 40% shooting and 31% in bands, while holding opponents near 29 rebounds. Positive return to Guard Bird's guard tonight, which makes them even stronger, missing in the previous five games (10.6 points, 4 rebounds).
For Cougars, what to say is a bit of a boxing bag in Pac12. Their defeat against the crowd did not help them, and in the next match they broke into Stanford three days ago 80-48 as an underdog of 13 points. Once again without a seat today with the children in the team do not know what has hit them. Third time this year, it will be given as a two-digit underdog with the two other matches being just a break. The team has stayed behind the 50 points in the last two games, with the assault on 48 with the 35 hit this year at the conference. Aggressive numbers include 3% shooting-56pt and 26% on shots. 33 rebounds gathers while allowing 12 and makes about 65 turnovers per match. He tries to play defensively with 44 Passive Points, but allows for a 33% shooting this season, while he has a problem in the rebound as 10 + rebounds pick up. Weak and in pressure as they stay below 18 turnovers in their matches. It has cost a lot the team the loss of the first Lacy scorer (XNUMX points) since it has no depth of team and a big problem in scoring.
Altogether in the pair Cali is 21-9 opposite State regardless of the seat from 97 'then, while the same space within 12-3. 8-6 ATS within 97 'and then for Bears.
There are two groups of different levels and goals here. That Cali. will fight for the top in Pac-12 and show no pity as he showed in the previous match. The State will look more to limit the damage tonight in back to back matchmaking mountains for the team. I do not see how they can stay close to the score here by Cougars with an attack that builds the basket more than scoring. I expect the Bears to move on the same pattern tonight, and I will be even more prominent than today. Netbet's best line is at -14.5 with a little lower @1.85.
