Cal State Fullerton vs Long Beach State Prediction

I’ll lean toward CSU Fullerton but I’m probably staying away. The Titans blew right past a struggling CSU Bakersfield team in their last outing, shooting 42.2 percent from the field with 73.9 percent (17-of-23) from the line. CSUF was out-rebounded 39-31 but also held the Roadrunners to just 39.3 percent shooting and benefited from 16 turnovers by the opposition. The Titans have won four of their last five games now, scoring 71 or more points in each win.

These teams last met up back on January 22 in a 71-61 home win for the Titans. In that one Cal State Fullerton shot a very nice 53.1 percent from the field but only 21.1 percent (4-of-19) from outside. The Titans added 13 turnovers but also held LBSU to just 37 percent shooting on defense. CSUF will need to clean up their mistakes in the road rematch.
