college basketball

boise state -2 over san diego state.

[The Giant]

The ol' unranked favored over the ranked angle.

[bostonboss]

no though that angle does apply. boise plays fast up tempo and will control the speed of the game. Boise shoots the 3 ball and can take advantage of san diego state's zone defense.

[The Giant]

Good luck, boss.

[The Kraken]

The ol' fast up tempo and will control the speed of the game angle.

[bostonboss]

that's it. san diego state wants to slow it down...etc etc but Boise's 3 point shooting abilities will keep them in the game and most likely ahead in the game.... you cant play slow down basketball when you are behind and san diego state will have to change their defensive style in this game..too much to ask on the road in my opinion.

[The Giant]

That is why Kraken is a future first ballot Hall of Famer.

[RollinDo]

Under for sure in the SD State-Boise game.

I like SD State to win SU. Basically this is a coin toss...not sure why Boise is favored though to be honest.

[bostonboss]

no josh davis for san diego state he averages 9 pts/ 12 rebounds a game.

[No coincidences]

Good luck, Boss. Hope this bet doesn't get X-ed out, if you know what I mean.

I can't back Boise after what they did on Saturday at UNLV. They couldn't have thrown that game in grander fashion. Marks played like he should've been wearing a Rebel jersey after the under 3 timeout.

[bostonboss]

I saw that...but that ending sets up this game better...plus boise far better home team....im already in....but if the line moved to boise -3 or higher id pass

[BadLuckSanta]

Good luck

[bostonboss]

Moving the other way here a few at -1.5 and one just hit -1

[SilverTongueFox]

Aztecs went into Allen Fieldhouse and controlled tempo no problem. Don't see why they couldn't control tempo in Taco Bell. Boise played them tough at their place so it should be a tight game. Hard for me to pick one in this game. Should be a great game and BOL

[bostonboss]

public supporting the 19-1 team with + points......the game will float back to boise -2 or better closer to game.

[irish1]

These west coast games are unpredictable, like Portland beating the Zags, San Diego kicking SMC's ass and Boise losing to New Mexico and Wyoming. This is the kind of game I stay away from. Hey GL if your on it!

[jjgold]

What is Boise's record??

[bostonboss]

15-7 something like that

[blackeyeshamus]

Good luck, Boston.
Might play BSU myself.

(5) San Diego State (19-1) at Boise State (15-7) Wednesday, February 05, 2014 Latest Line: San Diego St +2 O/U: 133

FACTS & STATS: Site: Taco Bell Arena (12,480) -- Boise, Idaho.Television: CBSSN. Home Record: SDSU 10-1, BSU 10-2. Away Record: SDSU 6-0, BSU 3-4. Neutral Record: SDSU 3-0, BSU 2-1. Conference Record: SDSU 8-0, BSU 5-4. Series Record: San Diego State leads, 7-1.GAME NOTES: Undefeated in Mountain West Conference play, the fifth-ranked San Diego State Aztecs try to keep the good times rolling tonight as they clash with the Boise State Broncos at Taco Bell Arena.The Aztecs are in the midst of one of the greatest seasons in program history, as they shoot for their ninth straight 20-win campaign. The squad split the first two games of 2013-14, bowing to an Arizona squad that was the top-ranked team in the nation as recently as last week. Since then, SDSU has ripped off 18 straight victories, the second-longest streak in school history, and is setting a new standard in terms of starting a conference schedule undefeated as well.Over the weekend, the Aztecs went up against Colorado State at home and came away with a 65-56 win after the Rams benched one of their top scorers after only three minutes of action. Not only did the outcome get San Diego State one step closer to 20 wins on the season, it was also the 300th for head coach Steve Fisher at the school as well.Meanwhile, the Broncos are a team that opened the season with eight wins in as many games, but many of those came against questionable competition. Boise State has split the last 14 games, the most recent contest taking place over the weekend at UNLV and ending in a 73-69 loss to snap a two-game win streak.Like every other program in the MWC, the Broncos are chasing San Diego State in the standings with a record of 5-4.The Aztecs have won all but one of the previous eight encounters with Boise State, and that includes a narrow 69-66 final in the first meeting of the season back in January at Viejas Arena. The one win for the Broncos came last season in this building by a score of 69-65 in the regular-season finale.San Diego State gave up the first field goal of the game to Colorado State, but from there the hosts ripped off a 25-6 scoring run and remained out in front the rest of the way. Xavier Thames led the way for the Aztecs with 24 points, shooting a perfect 12-of-12 at the free-throw line and a not-so- impressive 6-of-17 from the floor, while clearing seven rebounds. Winston Shepard added 17 points and six boards, while J.J. O'Brien contributed 10 boards, but just a single point in 30 minutes of work.A candidate for a series of postseason accolades, Thames directs the San Diego State offense as well as anyone, producing a team-best 53 assists and 36 steals while also pacing the group with 18.0 ppg. Shepard chips in another 13.1 ppg and Josh Davis, who missed the last game due to injury, accounts for 11.6 rpg as the team beats opponents on the glass by 5.9 rpg. But more than anything else, it is the SDSU defense that is bringing home the victories as the group limits foes to a paltry 56.1 ppg.Boise State led by as many as 12 points in the first half and was up by double figures at the break versus the Runnin' Rebels at the Thomas & Mack Center, but it wasn't enough to keep the Broncos out of the loss column. Nevertheless, Derrick Marks stepped up with 22 points on 11-of-19 shooting from the floor, followed by Thomas Bropleh with 13 points off the bench. Coming away with a double-double was Ryan Watkins who dropped in 11 points and pulled down 12 rebounds, seven of those at the offensive end of the floor.On the season overall, BSU is averaging 78.0 ppg and outscoring the competition by close to 10 per contest, but when it comes to conference matchups the margin for error is greatly reduced. Granted, Watkins has been a beast for the most part in these nine conference outings, averaging 13.9 points and a massive 14.0 rebounds per game, but still the program is outscoring MWC foes by an average of only 3.7 ppg. Marks (15.1 ppg) and Anthony Drmic (13.6 ppg) remain huge factors on offense for the group.There are few teams in the nation right now that have the ability to completely shut down an opponent as well as the Aztecs do. Foes have converted just 36.2 percent from the field and a mere 26.6 percent behind the 3-point line, numbers that the Broncos will have to keep in mind when they take the floor tonight. Predicted Outcome: San Diego State 73, Boise State 64
