Just call Colorado State the ‘Arkansas’ of the Mountain West Conference.
Heading into the final three games of the regular betting season, the Rams have won every one of their conference home games and have lost all of their NHL Betting Strategy league road contests.
Yes, CSU is an intimidating 12-1 SU at Moby Arena after shocking mighty New Mexico last Tuesday – but its only road wins came way back in December against the likes of Northern Colorado and UTEP.
The Aztecs were the MWC leaders entering the UNLV game on February 11 but after dumping three of their last four contests, they’re now tied for second place with Las Vegas behind New Mexico.
Steve Fisher’s team should be red-faced and ready here. San Diego State got thrashed by CSU, 77-60, as 2-point road chalk a month ago (arguably the Rams’ most impressive win of the season) but they’ll be back in their comfort zone for the rematch.
That’s because SDSU has won 50 of its last 55 games SU at Viejas Arena, plus the hosts are 7-0 SU and 5-2 ATS versus CSU on this court of late. The sun worshippers are also a sparkling 23-7-1 ATS (9-1 ATS the last ten) in SU revenge wins as a college basketball betting picks favorite.
Those are hand-in-glove numbers matched against Colorado State’s lowly 0-7 SU and 1-6 ATS mark away versus winning foes this year.
SDSU guards Chase Tapley and Xavier Thames combined to hit a horrid 5 of 28 shots in the earlier loss at Fort Collins, a fl uke that won’t be repeated today. Aztecs blister the Rams in a bonafi de blowout.
