Arizona already disposed of the Cougars by 24 points at home earlier this year and with a double-revenger with the Huskies on tap Saturday, it’s more likely that Sean Miller’s men will be more interested in dogs than cats tonight in Pullman.
That would be a mistake as Ken Bone’s (shouldn’t he be the coach of the Bulldogs or Huskies?) boys are 10-2 SU and 7-2-1 ATS at Friel Court this betting season.
And despite the disaster in the desert, the Cougars have covered 13 of 20 in this series since 2002, including all four when they show up as home dogs.
The Washington State University men's basketball team (13-12, 5-8) returns to Beasley Coliseum this weekend for a three-game home series. The Cougars will first face Arizona (18-8, 9-4) Thursday, Feb. 16 at 6 p.m. in a nationally televised event on FSN
Washington State also makes amends nicely when they get handled in the first meeting between these two, posting a 7-2 ATS log with same-season revenge from a loss of 7 or more points.
They may not want it, but in tonight’s catfi ght we have no choice but to throw the Cougars a ‘bone.’ Grab the points but the feeling here is you won’t need ‘em. State, outright!
Free betting pick: Washington ST over Arizona by 7.
