Weber State Wildcats Betting Preview
The Wildcats kicked off their year with a blowout win over NWIC, then hit the skids over the next four games. Those losses came versus Oregon State, Nevada, Hawaii, and UC Irvine. Weber State got back in the win column versus Justice in their last outing, though.
Matched up against Justice on Monday, the Wildcats were up 46-14 by halftime. Weber State kept it going with 47 more points from there and took the blowout win 93-45. Blaise Threatt led the way on 16 points with four assists and three rebounds.
Bowling Green Falcons Betting Preview
Over on the Bowling Green side, they lost their first two games 77-68 versus Southern Miss and 91-85 against Davidson. The Falcons would beat Taylor and Niagara with losses otherwise to Michigan State and Bellarmine in the next quartet.
Back on Saturday versus Bellarmine, Bowling Green faced a 34-29 deficit at halftime. The Falcons didn’t get any closer on a 46-39 run from there and lost 80-68. Both Javontae Campbell and Derrick Butler had a team-high 21 points.

- Bowling Green has won three of its last four games against non-AP-ranked opponents at a neutral venue.

Weber State vs Bowling Green Prediction
I’ll lean toward Bowling Green, but I’m probably not touching this one. The Falcons lost to a struggling Bellarmine team in their last outing and looked pretty bad doing it. Bowling Green shot a tepid 41.8 percent from the field in that one and got outmuscled on the boards 32-25. The good news is that the Falcons have 68 or more points in all six games so far and should score well here also.
As for Weber State, they’ve got two blowout wins versus overmatched teams on their card this year. Otherwise, it’s been a series of ineffectual losses. The Wildcats do have 68 or more points in three straight games however, so they’ve got the potential to help push this one to a high total. I don’t think the Weber State keeps a cover/win pace, though.
