Today's matchup is between Cal (6-7) & Colorado (9-3). Last game Colorado won 65-58 vs Utah while Cali won 84-78 vs Washington. Matt Bradley (17.8 ppg) is out for the game which leaves Betley and Foreman as the top-scoring weapons. Each is averaging just over 10 ppg. Cal is scoring 68.9 ppg and also are giving up 68.9 ppg on defense.
Colorado has looked impressive recently and has been very balanced as they have had a different top scorer in their last 3 games. Colorado is averaging 74.8 ppg offensively & giving up 62.3 ppg defensively. One big stat is Colorado is leading the country at the free-throw line shooting 84.5%.
In 2 of Cal's ranked games (Oregon & Arizona State), they lost those games by 10.5 ppg (average). That being said I feel Cal is getting great value at +14.5 so that's the play.
