Another Strong Game for San Jose State?
San Jose State has won two games in a row and they have all kinds of confidence right now. Two games ago against the Air Force Falcons, they won 75-64 and in the last game against Fresno State, they won 94-91. It took double overtime, but they scored 16 points and that was enough to secure the win. Josh Uduje had a strong game, putting up 30 points, 11 rebounds, and four assists. The offense for this team has been inconsistent at times, and three games ago, when they lost against San Diego State, they scored only 68 points.
San Jose State overall sits with a 12-12 record but they have gone 17-4-1 against the spread. The over has also gone 14-7-11 so far. San Jose State is averaging 75.1 points while their defense is giving up 72.7 points per game. The offense is ranked 162nd and they are going to need the offense to get out to a fast start here. Josh Uduje hasn’t been able to be stopped most of the year, and he’s averaging 16.8 points while shooting 51 percent from the field and 37.2 percent from behind the three-point line. San Jose State hasn’t really been talked about a lot, but this is a competitive team, and a win here would make quite the statement. I wouldn’t be shocked if they were able to make a little run in the Mountain West Tournament.
Why San Jose State Will Cover Against Boise State
- San Jose State has won three of its last four games.
Boise State is Heating Up
Boise State had gone through a little bit of a lull, and there were some questions being asked but they are heating up again and have won three straight games. Two games ago against Fresno State, they won 82-60 and in the last game against UNLV, they were able to secure a 71-62 victory. At halftime against the Runnin Rebels, they were up 33-29, and they never looked back on the way to the win. Tyson Degenhart is having a strong season, and he put up 16 points, seven rebounds, and four assists.
Boise State sits with a 16-7 record overall, and they have gone 11-11 against the spread. Boise State is averaging 77.1 points, while their defense is giving up 66.4 points per game. They are actually only averaging 55 shot attempts per game, which makes the offense even more impressive. Degenhart is averaging 17.7 points while grabbing 6.0 rebounds per game. In this game, they need to take advantage of a bad defensive team and get the offense out to a fast start. If the offense struggles early, San Jose State could stick around.
San Jose State vs Boise State Prediction
Give me the underdog here. San Jose State is averaging 75.1 points per game and they have also gone 17-4-1 against the spread. Boise State’s defense has been fine, giving up 66.4 points per game, but their defense isn’t going to be good enough against this offense. Uduje is playing really well heading into this game and he’s going to have a good game against this Broncos defense. Is Boise State going to win this game? Probably, but this is way too many points for them to lay. Back San Jose State against the spread.
