Cal Poly SLO averages 79.6 points and shoots 45.2% from the field with a five-guard lineup anchored by 6-5 senior Owen Koonce (17.7 ppg. 5.3 rpg). The defense is improving after a rough start, on a 3-1 run UNDER the total. They lost at Hawaii, 68-55, sailing UNDER by 30 points, beat UC-Santa Barbara (75-72) as a +4.5 underdog that went UNDER, and come off a 65-54 loss to UC Davis that went UNDER by 37 points.

They've already lost fifth-leading scorer Andre Henry, and 6-7 senior Devin Tillis, second on the team in scoring and rebounding, missed the last game. Cal Irvine is 12-5 UNDER the total this season.
