Pacific vs San Francisco Prediction

In this Pacific vs San Francisco Prediction, San Francisco is coming as -4.5 home favorites. Pacific has been the better team this season and have been in good form lately, as they are 6-2 in their last 8 games and 3-0 against the spread. On the other hand, San Fran is 1-3 in its last 4 games and just 2-7 against the spread and it is hard to trust them against a Pacific team that shoot the ball better from the field and have been playing elite defense in its last three games, having allowed just 56.3 points per game in that span. I like the guests to keep this one close, so take Pacific and get the +4.5 points.

Nikos Lagouretos's Pick: Pacific +4.5
