Colorado State Looks to Pick Up Another Impressive Win
Colorado State is coming off an impressive win and they are going to look to pick up another big one here.

Isaiah Stevens had another big game putting up 20 points, seven assists, and six rebounds. Colorado State on the season is averaging 84.7 points while their defense is giving up 66.2 points per game.

Shane’s Free Pick
What Colorado State’s defense did in the last game against Creighton opened up a lot of eyes and I believe they are going to find a ton of success again here. Colorado State gave up only 48 points and although Creighton might score a few more points than that here, they aren’t going to have a great offensive game, and that will be the difference. Back Colorado State to pick up another big win and they can cover the spread.
