Colorado State Rams vs UNLV Runnin Rebels Predictions | College Basketball Best Bets For 1/19/24

What a difference a month makes Colorado state was fantastic Merl to start the season everyone’s favorite top 25 and it kind of hit a brick wall here as of late certainly when conference play began and UNLV shocking the world was it Boise State we talked about that

Game on the show earlier this week and they ended up handling uh business there but another tough road game here for UNLV how are you looking at it tonight so yesterday on Thursday Joe when I said it for you I gave a free best bet at the end of the show I used

Colorado in the 10:30 Eastern FS1 game last night I’m going to come right back now and use Colorado state in the big game breakdown for the Fox Sports One game also now at 10:30 Eastern Friday night and similar angle I’ll bring up when I faded Oregon yesterday in

Colorado we’ve got UNLV playing in the thin air and altitude of Colorado State I think that’s a disadvantage and yes as you said they just beat boisey State on the road three days ago on the 16th but I think that makes the altitude spot actually tougher here I don’t think they

All of a sudden became accustomed to and now they’re playing their second game in four nights in the thin air of altitude off a straight up dog win so I think it’s a bad spot for UNLV Early money this morning also came in on Colorado States moved from six and a half to

Seven even looks like it might go to 7 and a half at some of the sharper books around the world so I do think that’s the sharp side in this game and I agree with the move as you mentioned they’re coming off back-to-back losses against Utah State and Boise State on the road

But then they bounc back with an impressive win against Air Force at home and something I’ll point out about that game is that Air Force plays slow halfcourt basketball and that’s the preferred style that Colorado State wants Utah State and Boise play more uptempo now UNLV also just played Utah

State and Boise they lost to Utah State by one beat Boise so the common opponents makes UNLV look attractive but now they’re slowing down against Colorado state after playing two Up Tempo teams so I think the pace Advantage also goes to Colorado State tonight thin air and altitude in the

Scheduling spot as well I think this is a good spot for Colorado State to get back on track and like you said this a team that started the season really strong they’re still 14 and3 straight up you know is just – seven and if you look at the offensive and defensive efficiency

Metrics they’re the better offense and the better defensive team by most counts and they’re also an excellent free throw shooting team hitting 76% including 79% at home this year in their 10 home games where they’ve gone nine and one straight up I think that also allows them to pull

Away and perhaps win this game by double digits
