Cal Poly is now 7-14 while the Titans sit at 11-11. A couple offensive numbers to keep in mind before tip-off: Cal Poly is stumbling into the contest with the 353rd fewest points per game in college basketball, having accrued only 61.9 on average. Cal State Fullerton has experienced some struggles of their own as they have only been able to knock down 42% percent of their shots, which is the 41st lowest field goal percentage in college basketball. It's possible one of these Achilles' heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
