Long Beach State Beach vs. Fresno State Bulldogs Prediction
I’m on the under in this one. I just don’t trust either one of these teams offensively right now, and Fresno State at least has a decent defense going for them, I just don’t trust them to cover this number unfortunately so I’ll side with the under as a result.
Chris Ruffolo's Pick: UNDER 140.5
