TOP PLAYS
3 UNIT PLAYS
Oregon State/ Arizona State Under 116: No matter who they play, this Oregon State team refuses to be sped up. Their last 6 Pac-12 games have averaged 109.3 ppg and that includes a game at uptempo Washington state, in which just 109 points were score, a game at home vs UCLA, which 121 points were scored, at Washington (109) and at home vcs ASU (102). This team just consistently plays low scoring grinder games and I see them doing that here as wll. ASU has not been an uptempo team this year so they do not mind the low scoring games. ASU does average 73 ppg at home but did score just 59 on this floor vs Utah and 56 here vs Harvard and will be taking on a Beavers squad that has allowed just 58.4 ppg on the road and just 52.7 ppg in their last 6 Pac-12 games overall. ASU has allowed 60.5 ppg at home, but Oregon State has averaged just 56.2 ppg on the road and 57.6 ppg in their last 5 games. Look for 110 or less to be scored here.
Air Force/ San Jose State Under 123: Both defenses come in struggling right now, but that's okay because these offenses couldn't score right now if it was 5 on 4. LOL. Air Force comes in averaging just 55 ppg in their last 4 games and they have put up just 54.5 ppg in MWC road games so far. San Jose State comes in as one of the most pathetic offensive teams in the nation right now, as they have averaged just 46.4 ppg in their last 9 games, scoring 41 points or less in 5 of those 9 games. Even though the defenses have struggled, it's hard to see the offenses doing much here. The Under is 17-5 in Air Force's last 22 road games and 8-3 in San Jose's last 11 at home. 58-50 sounds like a good score for this one.
BEST OF THE REST
Loyola- Chic/ Wichita State Under 120.5: Wichita State has a huge game vs Northern Iowa this weekend and that is part of the reason I like the Under here, because i can't see them going totally off in this one as they look to conserve energy for their big weekend game, especially when they get up big. Loyola is a very slow paced offensive team that has struggled to score of late, putting up just 54.4 ppg in their last 5 games. Now they take on a Wichita State squad that has allowed just 47.5 ppg in their last 6 games. The Shockers have not been great on offense of late as they have averaged just 68 ppg in their last 6 games, while the Ramblers have allowed just 67.5 ppg on the road and 62 ppg in their last 5 games. 65-48 sounds about right here.
Stanford -2 over WASHINGTON: I like the Cardinal in this one. They have been a bit more consistent than the Huskies this year and I fell they will be able to take this one. Washington also be without the best shot blocker in the country after they dismissed Robert Upshaw from the team. That leads a huge void on the inside of their defense and Stanford should be able to exploit that with a very solid inside game. The Huskies are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 vs the Pac-12 and I look for that to continue here as Stanford picks up a big road win tonight.
