Portland State Vikings at Santa Clara Broncos Prediction

The Vikings have been a broken slot machine against the spread this year and whilst they continue to be undervalued the general public we will go ahead and step in and snag the value. The Vikings have all the makings of an outfit that cannot only make a deep run in the Big Sky but perhaps take the conference hardware and punch its ticket to March Madness. The Vikings are a physical bunch on the boards. In fact, Portland State averages 34.9 rebounds per game in comparison to Santa Clara who average just 26.5 boards per game. This is a substantial difference and will have impactful influences in the outcome of this contest. One other thing makes Portland State a potent choice in this market: tempo. The Vikings own the 4th ranked fastest offense in all of America. Santa Clara likes to play a sluggishly-slow style of basketball as they sit at 330th, among the slowest in the land. The Vikings can overwhelm the Broncos here and are also worth a look as a Money Line play here.
