San Diego State at Boise State picks and predictions

Prediction

San Diego State 63, Boise State 61

Moneyline

Boise State is a fine shooting team, but SDSU is more efficient on offense, getting points from more varied sources, in half-court sets, transition, put-backs, etc. The visiting team is a lean. They’re worth a play at +115 or better. PASS otherwise.

Against the spread

The Aztecs are 7-3 ATS in the last 10 series meetings. They are 3-0-1 ATS in their last 4 games against winning teams. The Broncos are 0-6-1 ATS in their last 7 games overall.

San Diego State is on a nice roll and focused on getting the best possible seed in the NCAA Tournament. BACK THE AZTECS +2.5 (-105).

Over/Under

The Under has hit in 5 straight SDSU-BSU games and by a margin of more-than-9 points in 4 of those games. These teams play superb defense and will mostly avoid any quick-run spiral from 3s and 1s (free throws). TAKE THE UNDER 133.5 (-105).
