U San Diego @ Santa Clara U 7:00pm EST

Even though Santa Clara is a significantly better team on paper — sporting a 12-4 record and a double-digit favorite at home — San Diego has shown flashes of competitiveness that suggest they can keep this game closer than expected. Santa Clara’s performance against the spread has been shaky recently, going 1-4 ATS in their last five games, which indicates they don’t always dominate by large margins even when they win outright.  Additionally, San Diego has covered reasonably often this season as an underdog, going 8-6 ATS overall, showing they can outperform expectations against stronger competition.  San Diego’s offense can spike in spurts — as evidenced by their ability to score 93 points against a top-ranked Gonzaga team — meaning they aren’t hopeless offensively and might well keep pace in stretches.  The Broncos’ pace and scoring strength also suggest this could turn into a high-variance game, where San Diego’s offense benefits from a fast tempo and keeps the deficit manageable. Lastly, San Diego is dealing with injury questions for key players including Ty-Laur Johnson and D’Arrae Goodwin, which could artificially compress the spread and make expectations of a blowout less realistic if their status is limited or absent.
