Betting Prediction:
UNLV turned things around and played better recently. The team won 4 of its last 6 games and are currently on a 2-game winning streak. They are playing okay offensively, averaging 73.5 points per game on 41% shooting. Kris Clyburn is the team’s leading scorer with 12.5 points and 4.9 rebounds per game. The Rebels have also played well defensively, allowing 70.7 points per game.
The New Mexico Lobos have also played well recently. They won their last 3 games and 4 out of their last 6. The Lobos are averaging 78.9 points per game on offense with 43% shooting from the field. Anthony Matis is the leading scorer with 16.4 points per game while Vance Jackson is averaging 11.9 points and 7.1 rebounds per game. Defensively, the Lobos haven’t been that solid, allowing 75.9 points per game.
The Lobos have played well against the spread, covering six of their last 7 games. The Rebels, on the other side, have struggled against it and I expect this to continue.
