The San Jose State Spartans (7-20, 3-12 CONF) and the Colorado State Rams (18-10, 9-6 CONF) will meet on Saturday, February 22nd for a Mountain West matchup at the Moby Arena in Fort Collins, CO. The game will be played at 4:00 PM eastern time.
San Jose State is coming off an 80-62 home loss in their last game. San Jose State has now lost six straight games overall, as they are nine games under .500 in terms of conference play. Colorado State is coming off a real stinker of a loss to UNLV on the road, 80-56. Colorado State has won three of their last five, but have dropped two of their last three.
San Jose State scores 70.6 points per game on 39.4% FG shooting this season. The Spartans leading scorer and rebounder is G Seneca Knight, who scores 16.2 PPG and earns 5.8 RPG. San Jose State allows 80.7 points per game to the opposition, therefore they have a -10.1 scoring differential so far this season. San Jose State also earns 35.4 rebounds, 13.4 assists, 3.5 blocks, and 6.2 steals per game as a team.

The Rams’ leading rebounder is C Nick Carvacho, who averages 10.9 RPG. Colorado State gives up 72.0 points per game to the opposition, thus they have a +3.6 point differential so far this season. Colorado State also earns 15.5 assists, 2.0 blocks, 15.5 assists, and 6.6 steals per game as a team.
San Jose State is 12-14 ATS this season and 4-6 ATS in their last ten games. San Jose State is also 5-6 ATS on the road so far this season. Colorado State is 13-14 ATS this season and 5-5 ATS in their last ten games. Colorado State is also 5-8 ATS at home so far this season.
Colorado State is due for a statement win at home, however defeating San Jose State will not really prove much in the end. I still like Colorado State to come out and take care of business against a really bad San Jose State team, so I will take the Rams in this spot.
