Why Fresno State Will Win
The Bulldogs should have no problem hitting the 90-point mark against Northridge. In its season opener Friday, Fresno State pounced on UC Santa Cruz 96-65 thanks to six double-digit scorers. CSUN could have a tough time defending this high-powered Fresno offense, as the Matadors ranked 332nd in adjusted defensive efficiency last season. Fresno went 12-24 from deep on Friday, and CSUN allowed opponents to connect on 38.4% of attempts in 2017. That’s a recipe for disaster for Northridge.
