PICK: I’ll probably stay with UC Davis in this one. This should be a good matchup, though. The Aggies are 5-2 over their last seven games and only lost that pair by two points apiece. UC Davis has scored well pretty much all season long; they’ve hit 72 or more points in all 10 games and should post a decent total here as well. As for Eastern Washington, they’ve hit 70 or more points in five of their last six outings. If both teams are on point this should be a fairly high-scoring affair.
