Northern Arizona Blown Out in Last Game

Northern Arizona in the last game faced off against Stanford in the last game and it wasn’t a pretty one. Northern Arizona scored only 64 points while the defense gave up 90 points and that led to the 26-point defeat. As a team, Northern Arizona shot 44.6 percent from the field and 36.4 percent from behind the three-point line. Trenton McLaughlin was the top player putting up 20 points, two rebounds, and two assists. Guard Oakland Fort also had a strong game putting up 13 points, two assists, and two rebounds. The other two teams were against non-D1 teams so there are still a ton of questions surrounding this team. 

Can Pacific Bounce Back?

Pacific won their first two games of the season, but they were defeated in the last game. Pacific’s offense scored only 66 points against Hawaii and that led to the defeat. At halftime, they were up by two points, but in the second half they scored only 29 points and that led to the defeat. Elijah Fisher had a strong game putting up 21 points, seven rebounds, and one assist. Forward Elias Ralph also put up 17 points and eight rebounds. In the first game of the season against San Jose State, Pacific scored 80 points and ended up winning by 13 points. Pacific will take on Arkansas and Missouri after this game.

Northern Arizona vs Pacific Prediction

Give me Northern Arizona here as the underdogs. Pacific really didn’t look good in the last game against Hawaii and that has to be a concern. Pacific scored only 66 points in the game and they are going to struggle to get the offense going here. Northern Arizona’s offense is going to find success here, and it’s going to be the Lumberjacks that will cover the spread. Back Northern Arizona against the spread.
