Betting Trends for vs
The Nevada Wolf Pack have had a tough time finding consistency 1st-year coach Steve Alford as they aren’t the nationally ranked program they once were, and their last game was an example of that as they only won by 1 against a bad Wyoming team. The San Diego State Aztecs are currently the undefeated team in college basketball, and they should continue their success with their defensive effort as they are holding their opponents to an average of 56.9 PPG. The Aztecs haven’t been a scoring juggernaut by any means, but Nevada has really struggled on the defensive side of the court this season as they are allowing an average of 71.1 PPG (231st in the country). Junior guard Malachi Flynn has been excellent for San Diego State this season as he is averaging 16.6 PPG and 4.8 APG, and I expect him to continue his great season at home. Final Score Prediction, San Diego State Aztecs win and cover ATS 75-59.
