MBB Heads to San Diego State in First Road Game
Aztecs Are Coming Off a Big Win
The Aztecs are coming off a big win over UC Riverside in their season opener. Matt Bradley led the way for San Diego State with 21 points, while Adam Seiko added 16 points and Keshad Johnson chipped in with 12 points. The Aztecs shot 50% from the field and 40% from three-point range in the win.
Rebels Look to Bounce Back
The Rebels are looking to bounce back from a season-opening loss to No. 1 Gonzaga. Ole Miss led by as many as 11 points in the first half, but the Bulldogs rallied to win the game 88-78. Jarkel Joiner led the Rebels with 20 points, while Matthew Murrell added 18 points and Jaemyn Brakefield chipped in with 12 points.
Matchup to Watch
The matchup to watch in this game will be between San Diego State's Matt Bradley and Ole Miss's Jarkel Joiner. Bradley is a preseason All-American and one of the best players in the country. Joiner is a dynamic guard who can score in bunches. The player who can control the tempo of the game and make big plays down the stretch will likely lead his team to victory.
Prediction
San Diego State is a slight favorite in this game, but Ole Miss is capable of pulling off the upset. The Rebels have a talented team and they are playing at home. However, the Aztecs are a more experienced team and they have a lot of talent on their roster. In the end, I think San Diego State will win the game by a score of 75-68.
