Minnesota vs. San Francisco

San Francisco saw a need to improve its defense this season and the Dons have done so and it has resulted in a 4-2 record and they now are 7-1 ATS their past eight lined games dating to last season. San Francisco comes off a 76-60 victory over IPFW on Wednesday even while shooting just 26 percent and hitting just four 3-pointers. The defense intensity won the game as the Mastodons shot 32 percent with only three 3-pointers. Minnesota is 4-1 with the only loss being against Missouri, but that was by far its toughest opponent this season. Look for the Dons to regain their shooting touch as they still average 50.3 percent on the season. Take San Francisco.
