WAC College Basketball Spreads – Fresno State vs. Nevada
By Eric Williams
The Fresno State Bulldogs, (13-18 SU, 7-19 ATS, 15-11 O/U), and Nevada Wolf Pack, (20-10 SU, 15-14 ATS, 16-13 O/U), will meet tonight for the second consecutive game after Nevada beat Fresno State in the teams’ regular season finale 76-63 last Saturday, though the stakes are raised considerably as the loser of this contest is likely to see their season come to a crashing finish, though the Wolfpack would appear to be headed to the annual NIT Tournament should they fall in this contest.
The Bulldogs are a pathetic 3-7 in their last ten games in the BetUS.com Sportsbook and have lost three straight coming in to this game while Nevada has gone 7-3 in their last ten and comes into this contest riding a three-game winning streak.
The Bulldogs are averaging 68.6 points per game on 41.7 percent shooting but are allowing 69.1 points per game on 43.9 percent shooting.
The Wolf Pack is averaging 74.7 points per game on 48.1 percent shooting while allowing 70.2 points per game on 42.8 percent shooting.
Nevada won both regular season meetings this season, beating the Bulldogs 79-67 on Jan. 31 in addition to last week’s win over Fresno State.
Here is a look at tonight’s Key Trends, followed by my NCAA Basketball Gambling Free Picks:
The Bulldogs are 17-35 ATS in their last 52 games overall.
The Bulldogs are 22-46-2 ATS in their last 70 vs. Western Athletic.
The Wolf Pack are 4-0 ATS in their last four games as a favorite.
The Wolf Pack are 4-0 ATS in their last four vs. Western Athletic.
The Over is 6-0 in Bulldogs last six games as an underdog of 7.0-12.5.
The Over is 6-0 in Wolf Pack last six games as a favorite of 7.0-12.5.
The Favorite is 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings.
The Over is 5-2 in the last seven meetings.
Analysis: With two double digit victories over the Bulldogs this season, I don’t think there is any doubt that the Wolfpack and pull off the feat for the third consecutive time this season.
