Cal Poly is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 road games and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games as a road underdog while the under is 4-0 in their last 4 Thursday games. CSU-Fullerton is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 Thursday games and 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following an ATS loss while the over is 11-1 in their last 12 games against a team with a losing record.
I get the case to be madefor an underdog in certain spots, but Cal Poly’s offensive issues that have plagued them in recent seasons are still lingering and that’s not good against a Fullerton team that’s playing arguably some of the best ball in the Big West right now. It’s a big number, but I think the Titans win by 15+ so I’ll lay it and play it here.
