As is typical in the Big West, Cal State Fullerton is much better at home (8-3, 5-2) than it is on the road (4-9, 1-4). This bad news for the Aggies as they only lost by 5 at Davis partly because the Titans missed 13 free throws. They continue to score in the 80s while allowing about the same number of points per game. They have four players who average in double figures, led by Joshua Ward who dropped 19 on UCD in their earlier loss. There is little doubt that they will have extra incentive to win this game as they only trail the Aggies by one game in the battle for the fourth seed. We really need to hope that the guys can shake their problems away from the UCU and pull out a critical win in this one.
I was surprised that the Titans were as good as they were in Davis since they’ve been down the past few seasons.
I’ve been meaning to look at our record on Thursday night road games vs Saturday (limited sample size). I assume, we bus to Sac, fly down, kill time somewhere and then play - I can’t imagine we fly and stay Wednesday. Of course, SOCal teams have that same issue coming up here on Thursday (they must stay Friday before a Saturday afternoon gsme).
