California-Irvine Anteaters at California-Davis Aggies Prediction
Irvine’s position at the top of the Big West standings is fueling this market. However, Davis remains undefeated on their home court this season and that is something worth focusing upon. The environment in Davis will assuredly be animated be that this is a game of consequence and is more than just a rivalry feud for bragging rights. Essentially, the winners take the inside path to winning the top seed in the Big West Tournament. For Davis in particular this would be landmark, given the fact they had a very disappointing 2015-16 campaign. With Davis looking for their first win against the Anteaters in two years, now is a great time to step in on the Aggies be that no one knows what effects will materialize on the Anteaters’ psyche after they suffered the Cal Poly loss on their own court in Irvine. Conversely, Davis is soaring after their big win in Hawaii and they can take that with them on their own court against their most despised rival. A victory for Davis puts them in the pole position of this conference race and given the fact Irvine is still on top of the pecking order even with the Cal Poly loss, they are still bound to yield a reaction from the general public. The Aggies have won their last two outright on the road as an underdog. What this says to us here is that there is an abundance of value on this likely undervalued Aggies team.
