Weber State Wildcats at Montana State Bobcats Prediction
Weber State qualified for the 2016 Men’s Basketball Tournament by virtue of winning the Big Sky Conference Championship. The Wildcats went 26-9 in the 2015-16 season but at this time last year they were standing at 8-5 contrary to the 5-6 record they currently sport. While much of this season remains to unfurl, it could be assessed that the Wildcats are not the same team we saw a year ago. Analytics would indicate both parties here rank towards the bottom of the list in terms of luck, meaning they both have had an overwhelming amount of misfortune. The one silver lining here for the Bobcats is that they get the Wildcats at home, where they have won all five of their victories this season. In spite of losing their previous six, the Bobcats are once again priced short as a pup. There is certainly a reason to look in to this. The Bobcats have lost five games this season by six points or less and astoundingly their average margin of victory is 14 points in their five victories. What we have here is a basketball team that has the potential to hit home runs but they often strike out on a foul-tip in the catcher’s glove (pardon the baseball analogy). With Weber State having a recent NCAA Tournament bid to bolster their name, the price here seems deceptively too good to be true and when it seems that way it is almost certainly is.
