Point Spread: -5.00 | -110.00 San Diego State (Away)
Result: Win
San Diego State is healthy and too strong defensively for a down UNLV team.
The Aztecs beat the Rebels by 15 at UNLV last season and then clobbered the Rebels, 92-56, in their final meeting. The Rebels could manage to average only 54 points versus the Aztecs last year and are worse this season.
The Rebels are shooting only 36 percent from the field in their last five games. By contrast, opponents are hitting 48 percent of their field goals during this span.
San Diego State has a front court edge with big man Malik Pope. Put it all together and this is a cheap price to lay with a much superior foe.
