Cal has opened the season with some pretty easy games, but the Golden Bears’ first real test comes against a San Diego State team that has given them fits. Cal has lost its past three meetings with San Diego State, including a 72-58 beating last season.
- Cal is 0-4 ATS in its last 4 games against the Mountain West.
- Cal is 28-2 SU in its last 30 games on Monday.
- San Diego State is 0-3 ATS in its last 3 games with 4 days off between games.
Cal has yet to send a healthy team to the court, as Ivan Rabb still hasn’t played after spraining his toe in a scrimmage almost a month ago. The senior guard duo of Jabari Bird and Grant Mullins both missed Cal’s last game as well.
San Diego State has more than its fair share of injuries as well, as Valentine Izundu, Matt Shrigley, Montaque Gill-Caesar, Dakarai Allen, Malik Pope, Max Hoetzel and Ben Perez are all dealing with injuries. The Aztecs have been leaning on the guard duo of Jeremy Hemsley and Trey Kell, who have scored nearly 50 percent of the team’s points.
