Grand Canyon vs. Boise State Picks

Point Spread Pick for Grand Canyon vs. Boise State

  • Boise State Broncos to cover. (4 Units)

The Broncos have won six of their seven home games, while the Lopes split their two road games. Boise State has the edge here because they play well offensively at home, scoring more than 76 points per game while making over 43 percent of their shots, while Lopes score less than 70 points per game on the road. Theyโ€™ve also done a better job at the charity stripe, making over 75 percent of their free throws. They do a good job of finding the open man, and they rebound the ball well, grabbing more than nine offensive rebounds per game, which will give them second-chance scoring opportunities. They also do a good job limiting their turnovers at home, and donโ€™t give up a lot of easy-scoring chances. The Lopes aren't playing well defensively, and gave up more than 72 points per game in their last three games, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Broncos. Take Boise State to cover the spread.

Over/Under Pick for Grand Canyon vs. Boise State

  • Under (4 Units)

The Lopes played under the total in their last two games, while the Broncos played under the total in four of their last six games. Grand Canyon averages 75.5 points per game. They play at the 238th-fastest pace in the nation, averaging 70.4 possessions per game, and theyโ€™re facing a team that is giving up 62.7 points per game at home.

They play at the 138th-fastest pace in the nation, averaging 72.4 possessions per game, and theyโ€™re facing a team that is giving up 69.8 points per game on the road. Donโ€™t expect these teams to score enough points to push the score over the total.
