Cal State Northridge had one starter returning, and it took a while to get some consistency, especially on the offensive end. Still, the Matadors appear to be on their way to another successful season after finishing 22-11 in 2024-25. They have won four in a row while averaging 91.3 points, including 100-88 over Sacramento State on Monday. Josiah Davis led five double-figure scorers with 22 points, and the Matadors shot 52 percent. Larry Hughes Jr. leads the Matadors in scoring (18.4 ppg), 3-pointers (44), and steals (23). Stanford has losses to Seattle and UNLV, although the Cardinal have won their past three. This could be a lookahead spot for them as they have Notre Dame and Louisville coming up next. Also, it's a revenge game for CSUN, which lost to Stanford in March. Take Cal State Northridge on the moneyline.

CS Northridge at Stanford
10:00 PM Eastern
Cal State Northridge shot the lights out in their first two games, at over 50% in each. But in this one, I think they will be looking at a team that is interested in defending. Stanford always brings the "D," especially on their home floor where opponents have averaged just 63.4 points per game in their last 200 home contests. They just showed Harvard how difficult it is to play in Palo Alto, holding the Crimson to 37% shooting. Playing as a home favorite last season, only one opponent scored more than 73 points, so getting this one to push into the 160s will be problematic, as Stanford isn't a push-the-offense type of team. Make the play on the UNDER.
