<p>The 2021-22 college basketball season continues Sunday, February 6, with 16 games around the country, including the Mountain West Conference battle at Save Mart Center in Fresno, California, so we have prepared the best Wyoming vs. Fresno State betting pick and odds.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Wyoming meets Fresno State for the first time this term. The Bulldogs have won five of their last six encounters with the Cowboys, but they’ve covered only twice in that span. Fresno State is a 3-point home fave this time around, while the totals are listed at 128.5 points on <a href="https://bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betonline/">BetOnline Sportsbook</a>.</p>



<h2 id="the-cowboys-shoot-for-their-fourth-straight-w">The Cowboys shoot for their fourth straight W   </h2>



<p>The Wyoming Cowboys improved to 18-3 straight up and 12-7-1 ATS on the season following a 72-65 win to the Boise State Broncos this past Thursday. Playing as small 1-point home favorites, the Cowboys recorded their third consecutive victory and ninth in their last ten outings at any location.</p>



<p>Wyoming is now 7-1 in the conference play. The Cowboys sit at the second spot of the MWC standings, trailing the top-seeded Boise State by half a game. They are No. 31 in the latest NCAA NET Rankings and No. 48 in the KenPom rankings.</p>



<p>The Cowboys lean on their offense, tallying 113.9 points per 100 possessions (20<sup>th</sup> in the country) on 48.3% shooting from the field (17<sup>th</sup>) and 36.4% from beyond the 3-point line (62<sup>nd</sup>). Senior guard Hunter Maldonado leads the way for the Cowboys with 19.2 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 6.5 assists per game, while sophomore forward Graham Ike adds 20.4 points and 9.0 boards a night.</p>



<h2 id="the-bulldogs-eye-their-third-straight-victory">The Bulldogs eye their third straight victory   </h2>



<p>The Fresno State Bulldogs (16-6; 14-6-1 ATS) are coming off a nice 73-56 home victory to the Nevada Wolf Pack this past Friday. It was their second win in a row and sixth in their last eight showings at any location. Also, the Bulldogs covered for the second straight contest, playing as 10-point home favorites.</p>



<p>Fresno State is now sitting at the fourth spot of the Mountain West Conference standings with a 6-3 record, a couple of games behind the No. 1 seed. The Bulldogs are No. 56 in the NCAA NET Rankings and No. 41 in the KenPom rankings.</p>



<p>Justin Hutson’s boys rely on their stout defense, surrendering only 92.7 points per 100 possessions (25<sup>th</sup> in the nation) on 40.6% shooting from the field (57<sup>th</sup>) and 32.3% from downtown (130<sup>th</sup>). They score 107.9 points in a return (81<sup>st</sup>), while junior big man Orlando Robinson leads the way with 19.0 points, 8.2 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks per game.</p>

<h2 id="h-wyoming-vs-fresno-state-pick">Wyoming vs. Fresno State Pick</h2>



<p>The clash between the Cowboys and Bulldogs should be a dramatic one. It’s hard to separate these two foes even though they have a completely different approach. I lean the hosts because of their defense, but the Cowboys are a resilient team that could easily come out on top in this one.</p>



<p>At least, both teams play at a slow pace. The Bulldogs possess height and length to compete with the Cowboys’ prolific offense, and the hosts will look to attack the rim all night long, as Wyoming ranks 332<sup>nd</sup> in the nation in blocks per game (2.0). Orlando Robinson will be a key guy for the Bulldogs in this matchup.&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Take Fresno State -3.0 at -110&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p><strong>The Total:</strong></p>



<p>While the Cowboys average 66.4 possessions per 40 minutes (234<sup>th</sup> in the country), the Bulldogs record only 61.3 (356<sup>th</sup>). Fresno State plays at the third-slowest pace in the nation, so I have to take the under on the totals.</p>



<p>The Bulldogs know they have to slow down Wyoming as much as they can. The Cowboys are a better offensive team in this encounter, but they will be forced into a lot of tough shots against one of the most aggressive defensive units in the country.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Go under 128.5 points at -110</strong></p>

North Carolina Tar Heels vs UCLA Bruins NCAA Basketball Betting Pick & Prediction 12/21/24

<p>Could the&nbsp;<strong>Los Angeles Clippers</strong>&nbsp;complete a journey where they came back from being down three games to one to beat the&nbsp;<strong>Phoenix Suns</strong>? Nobody would have given much for their chances of doing that after Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals, especially without Kawhi Leonard, who remains out with an injury and may not be back at all.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized img-right"><a href="https://betanysports.eu/BangTheBook/"><img src="http://bangthebook.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/betanysports-e1624716042655.png" alt="betanysports" class="wp-image-702422" width="299" height="229"/></a></figure>



<p>But&nbsp;<strong>BetAnySports&nbsp;</strong>customers saw an effort that may have been the best in Paul George’s career as they went into the desert on Monday night, and suddenly they have the opportunity to tie things up as we go to the Staples Center on Wednesday for Game 6, which is slated to get underway at 9:05 PM ET.</p>



<p>George seemingly couldn’t miss, making 15 of his 20 shots, and ending up with 41 points – 30 in the second half – with 13 rebounds. And he fought his way through a bit of physical abuse as well.</p>



<p>George wasn’t alone; Reggie Jackson had 23 points, with Marcus Morris adding 22 for the Clippers.</p>



<p>With Kawhi out of action, it’s a challenge to fill a void in the scoring column. Jackson has proven to be dependable, averaging close to 22 points per contest. But admittedly it’s not the easiest thing in the world being able to distract the opposition away from focusing on George, who has the highest Usage percentage of anyone in this series at 35.3%.</p>

You can also access the “Live” tab at the top of the sportsbook interface to do real-time wagering during the game itself, through Ultimate Lines or Super Lines.</p>



<p>Here are their NBA playoff betting odds on Game 6:</p>



<p><strong>Phoenix Suns -1 (-105)<br>Los Angeles Clippers +1 (-115)<br><br>Over 215 points -110<br>Under 215 points -110</strong></p>



<p>To have George as a primary offensive option is a virtual no-brainer for coach Ty Lue. But perhaps the best decision the coach has made is to give Patrick Beverley more playing time.</p>



<p>During this playoff season, there was a stretch where Lue gave Beverley just 17 minutes of playing time over six games. And no matter who the opponents were, that was a &nbsp;paltry figure.</p>



<p>We say that taking into consideration the fact that Beverley is a three-time member of the NBA’s All-Defensive team. He is such a pest; so in-your-face, that no opponent likes to see him.</p>



<p>Phoenix has a pair of All-Star guards, and Beverley has alternated bothering both of them. Neither one of them has been all that efficient in this series. Chris Paul, who missed the first two games, has an Offensive Rating of 83 and a shooting percentage of 31.7%. Devin Booker, whose nose has been broken by Beverley (inadvertently, we think), has shot 38% with an Offensive Rating of 97.</p>



<p>Beverley plays the mental game as well. There was one sequence in which Paul went up for a jumper and fell on his back after the two made contact. It was called a flagrant foul, although truth be told, DeAndre Ayton, who was setting a screen on the play, stuck out his knee as Beverley was going by. But Beverley mocked Paul after the call was made and told him “Way to sell it” before the fee throws.</p>



<p>We agree. &nbsp;</p>



<p>Needless to say, it has been wise for Lue to start Beverley in four of the five games. What it’s told us is that the Clippers are looking more toward turning this into a defensive series rather than one where they are simply going to try and outduel the Suns on offense.</p>



<p>So&nbsp;<strong>UNDER&nbsp;</strong>is the way to go for us.</p>
