The college basketball season is in full swing! Letโ€™s preview the San Diego State vs Nevada Mountain West clash. They are both fighting to improve their chances of claiming an at-large bid in the NCAA Tournament.

Preview

San Diego State improved to 5-3 over their last 8 games after a solid 2-0 week. They struggled a bit on the road to start out Mountain West play, but have settled in since then. After picking up a key win over Utah State, they handled business at Air Force. The Aztecs are currently projected to receive a 5-seed in the tourney, but will still aim to further improve their standing. They face another tough road game here.

Nevada got back on track last week, after going 1-4 over their previous 5 games. The slide impacted their metrics quite a bit, putting the Wolf Pack on the outside of the projected NCAA Tournament field. That being said, they moved back in the right direction on Tuesday. They picked up a crucial 14-point road win over Utah State, their 4th Quad 1 win of the season. They can raise that total to 5 with a win over SDSU.


Prediction

Winning on the road has been even more difficult this season than in the past, especially in evenly ranked matchups. When these two teams faced off a few weeks ago at San Diego State, the Aztecs won by 12. I expect this game at Nevada to be much closer. San Diego State is the better team, but theyโ€™ll still face an uphill battle on the road. Ultimately, I see the Aztecs overcoming Nevadaโ€™s home-court advantage to win.
