Anosike leads the Titans in scoring and rebounding with 16.1 PPG and 7.7 RPG while Damari Milstead has 11.6 PPG with a team-high 2.9 APG to lead the Titans in assists and to cap off the pair of double-digit scorers for the Titans this season. Tray Maddox Jr. and Jalen Harris each have 9+ PPG this season. As a team, CSU-Fullerton is averaging 70.9 PPG on 44.9% shooting from the field, 31.2% from three and 77.2% from the foul line while allowing 67.4 PPG on 44.8% shooting from the field and 38.4% from three this season.

UC-Davis is 22-8-1 ATS in their last 31 road games and 19-5-2 ATS in their last 26 games following a loss while the under is 6-1 in their last 7 road games against a team with a winning home record. CSU-Fullerton is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games as a favorite and 0-4 ATS in their last 4 home games against a team with a winning road record while the over is 20-8 in their last 28 home games.

I get why Fullerton’s favored here, as the Titans have been the better team over the course of the season, but UC-Davis had to cancel a lot of games so if there was an excuse to be had it’s probably there for the Aggies. With that said, the road team’s had a lot of the recent success between the two sides and Fullerton has been very streaky and right now they’re on a down streak. I’ll take my chances with the Aggies and the points here.
