My Prediction
San Diego State Aztecs by 8As we gear up for this juicy showdown between the California Golden Bears and the, yes you heard it right, #23 ranked, San Diego State Aztecs, let our ears listen attentively, and let the numbers do some whispering.
California with basketball hot-shots like Andrej Stojakovic, hammering it down with 21.6 points per game, and Jeremiah Wilkinson bringing some punch with 16.7 points in the past month, show some promise. Remember, we are not in the business of handing out participation trophies here. Sitting pretty with a decent 7-4 record for the season, the Bears definitely aren't in the den hibernating. However, a bit of a rollercoaster in their recent performances, with a couple of losses sprinkled in, could hint at some shaky nerves.
Facing off against them are the San Diego State Aztecs, ranked well, hence the pressure. Nicholas Boyd with 12.2 points per game and Miles Byrd with 14.2 in the past month are my picks from this talented lineup. Blessed with a strong 7-2 record, the Aztecs have shown they aren't mere historical relics but pretty good at oblong ball-hooping. Furthermore, they've been quite consistent, their recent victory against the Lancers seals their fine form leading up to this game.
Remember folks, our last meeting saw the Aztecs jump over the Bears by 9 points, thereby lending a deja vu feel to the proceedings. So, keeping all this in mind:
Albert’s Prediction: San Diego State Aztecs by 8
