UC Riverside at Cal State Northridge Game Pick 02/14/2018

There are many components here to make the Highlanders a good bet in this market. First off, there is a recency bias being cast on the Matadors thanks to their recent successes against the Highlanders as of late. When you combine this with the tough-to-stomach road record of UCRV, the Highlanders are a tough sell to takers in this market. However, there are many reasons to feel the opposite. The Highlanders own edges in the rebounding and defense department. This statistical advantage in itself can help UCRV neutralize the effects of playing this contest on the road in a less than accommodating environment. When a deeper bench and an edge in points per game are factored in, there is an excellent chance we can take advantage of a better price with the better team. This one has upset written all over it and could offer up a tremendous outright play on the Highlanders. Don’t be afraid to play UCRV on the Money Line in this one either.
