Washington State vs Toledo Prediction 

Washington State comes into this game looking to snap a two game losing streak, but they have played pretty well in those two losses against Ole Miss and Virginia. The Cougars have been very strong defensively, as they have allowed just 44 points in their last three games. Toledo has struggled to show consistency and they are 0-2 in their last two road games. The Rockets also have a very good defense, so we should see a lower scoring game. Take the under here.
