The Denver Broncos will try to defend their only loss this season
Denver wants to avenge its lone loss. On Nov. 14, the 1.5-point underdog Hornets defeated the Pioneers 73-69. Sacramento State hit five 3-pointers to Denver's two in a statistically close game. Since then, the Pioneers have won 6 straight games, half by three points or less.
The Hornets must increase their game
The Hornets have lost four straight games. Sacramento State (+11.5) covered in a 72-65 loss at Santa Clara on Saturday. In that game, the Hornets shot just 40.6% from the field. CSUS had a season high of 51.9% against Denver on Nov. 14, despite shooting just 43.2% for the season.
In their last 6 games, the Pioneers are 4-1-1 ATS. This Sacramento State team is a favorable matchup for them. The Hornets play at a slow tempo, but their ball handling is a bit sloppy. Expect Denver to score some points off Sacramento's miscues while rebounding well against CSUS.
