Cal State Bakersfield Roadrunners at North Dakota State Bisons (-11, 139)

8 PM ET

Now we have a uncommon rematch on this recreation, as Cal State Bakersfield and North Dakota State play a house recreation of the season. The Roadrunners gained Recreation 1 86-81, so why did this streak go from North Dakota State -8.5 to -11? We do have a current information level, however cash is hitting the board in favorites.

NDSU led that first assembly by as many as 15 and led by 13 with lower than 10 minutes left within the recreation. The Roadrunners then went nuclear on offense and scored 30 factors within the last 9:45 of play. Bakersfield had an actual out-of-body offensive expertise in that recreation, going 16-of-23 on mid-range jumpers. It is a crew that has very poor shot choice 12 months after 12 months. They’ve settled for lots of the low 2 p.c and have solely topped the nationwide common of 3P% as soon as prior to now decade.

They’re capturing 37.1% on 3s this season, however I absolutely anticipate that quantity to drop considerably as this season goes on. Additionally they rank 362nd within the nation in 3P price, so I do not understand how a lot they’re going to really profit from persevering with to shoot effectively, if it someway occurs.

In the meantime, crimes in North Dakota have been on the rise just lately. They’ve scored no less than 1.06 factors per possession in each recreation since Thanksgiving and are the house crew right here with a really excessive 3-point common. They’ve made no less than 11 3-pointers in seven of their final eight video games, together with wins over Butler, Northern Colorado and Utah Valley, all very sturdy groups.

CSUB additionally had all these photographs within the first recreation and solely had 5 assists. They do not share the ball effectively, which is one other indictment of Rod Barnes’ assault. This will likely be a low possession recreation, however I believe NDSU is making changes with a greater coach in David Richman and carries the day as the road motion signifies on the face of the primary rating.

Choose: North Dakota State -11
