    I've already bet it and the Cal Poly game.

    LONG BEACH ST is 44-25 ATS (+16.5 Units) in road games when playing against a team with a losing record since 1997.
    CAL POLY-SLO is 1-8 ATS (-7.8 Units) as a home underdog of 3 points or less or pick over the last 3 seasons.
    CAL POLY-SLO is 0-6 ATS (-6.6 Units) in home games against conference opponents this season.
    I'm on La Tech and long Beach so far.

    I notice two respected ‘cappers have this game too close to call, but my model has a lean towards Idaho because of their home court presence.
    Idaho is a certainly a picture of mediocrity with a 14-14 overall record and 7-7 in conference, plus Idaho avg’s. 66 pts/gm and defensively allow 66 pts/gm.. ….But wait a minute. LA Tech is a weak 5-12 on the road and Idaho is 10-3 at home To further add, Idaho scores over a pt./minute at home and LA Tech gives up the same. LA Tech scores less than a pt/min on the road and Idaho allows the same. I have this game being played at 63 possessions. I think the line is a hair high, but can see it a lean for Idaho.

    Good Luck on your action...

    I would guess that home advantage, more points per game, better FG% and less turnovers per game warrant Idaho a slight fav in this match up.

    idaho has been decent this year-especially at home
    they have the altitude advantge going for them too
    i'm not a fan of taking favorites at all but la tech is not exactly duke or memphis

    idaho seems considerably better this year than any prvious year i can recall so dont go by history too much

    I'm basing this off this season.Past seasons mean nothing to me but I do look at this year
    La Tech is hot right now and covered the last 8 games winning 6 of them SU.
    but who kows what happens when they step on the court.
    we will see

    I am playing Idaho tonight, its a meaningless game for Louisiana Tech and a long way to travel, and Idaho isn't exactly a pushover on their home court. Idaho has better shooters and as long as they hustle for boards I think they win this one by a comfortable margin, I think Louisiana Tech cant keep up with them on the road where they have been noticeably weaker....good luck with your play.
