It was a winner posted on Thursday as the Penn St Nittany Lions covered an inflated point spread against the Michigan St Spartans from Big Ten conference play. For Friday we select from the Big West conference contest as the UC Riverside Highlanders lock up with the Long Beach St 49ers. They tip off this contest at Long Beach at 10:30PM Eastern Time. With our free pick we will play on the UC Riverside Highlanders +8 points against the Long Beach St 49ers.
Long Beach St had a disappointing season at 14-15 straight up. UC Riverside no longer lingers in single digit wins in regular season as the team improved to 12-16 on the year. The Highlanders have won three of their past 4 games entering the final game of the Big West Conference schedule which includes a road win at Pacific. Long Beach St is not a good defensive club that has contributed to UC Riverside’s three straight wins over the 49ers. Take the underdog with the line inflated on the favorite.
Bet UC Riverside Highlanders +8 points
