Cal is Suddenly Struggling

California is suddenly struggling heading into this game and they have lost two games in a row. Two games ago against Wake Forest, they lost 76-66, and in the last game against Duke, they were 78-57. California shot 35.1 percent from the field and 30.4 percent from behind the three-point line. Jeremiah Wilkinson had a strong game, putting up 21 points, three assists, and one assist. There were three different players that put up at least 11 points. In this game, Cal needs the defense to be better. 

California on the season sits with a 12-13 record overall and they have gone 13-11-1 against the spread. Away from home this season they sit with a 2-7 record overall. California is averaging 74.1 points while their defense is giving up 75.1 points per game. The offense is ranked 186th in the league while the defense is ranked 276th. Andrej Stojakovic is averaging 17.5 points while shooting 41.5 percent from the field. 

Can Georgia Tech Pick up Second Straight Win?

Georgia Tech faced off against Stanford in the last game and they sure looked good. The defense gave up only 52 points while the offense scored 60 points and that was enough for the victory. Georgia Tech had only seven players play in the last game, and the lack of depth could be a problem. Naithan George had a strong game putting 22 points, seven rebounds, and five assists. There were three different players that put up at least 10 points. 

Georgia Tech sits with a 12-13 record overall and they have gone 11-14 against the spread. At home this season, they sit with an 11-5 record overall. Georgia Tech is averaging 74 points while their defense is giving up 72.9 points per game. The offense is ranked 191st in the league, while the defense is ranked 224th. They are averaging 60.48 field goals attempted per game which is 96th in the league. Lance Gerry has been the top player for Georgia Tech, averaging 14.9 points while shooting 44.2 percent from the field. 

Matchup League Facts

  • California ranks 26th among Division 1 teams for opponent three-point field goal attempts per game this season (19.1).

Cal vs Georgia Tech Prediction

Yes, Georgia Tech dominated the last game, but are we sure we are really sold on this team? No chance Georgia Tech’s defense has been a major issue giving up 72 points per game and their defense is going to be a problem here. Cal offense has a balanced attack, and they are going to have no issue getting the job done here. Cal is going to end up keeping this game close, and I wouldn’t be shocked if they win this game outright. Back Cal against the spread.
