What to Know
The Oakland Golden Grizzlies will square off against the Long Beach State Beach at 8 p.m. ET Friday at Baha Mar Convention Center. These two teams seek to continue their momentum from their previous wins.
It was a close one, but on Saturday Oakland sidestepped the Eastern Michigan Eagles for a 92-90 victory.
Meanwhile, Long Beach State made easy work of the Saint Katherine College Firebirds on Saturday and carried off an 84-55 win.
The Golden Grizzlies are expected to lose this next one by 3.5. Now might not be the best time to take Oakland against the spread since they've let down bettors for the past four consecutive games.
