Stephen Nover's CBB Monday Top Ticket
(NCAAB) Chicago State vs. Fairfield, 03/25/2024 4:30 PM, Score: 74 - 77
Point Spread: -5.00 | -114.00 Fairfield (Home)
Result: Loss
The 23-12 Fairfield Stags are a solid team that has a good offense, ranks 14th in 3-point shooting percentage and 35th in free throw percentage.

Chicago State has a lower-tier offense and is 13-18. The Cougars have a number of bad losses, including a 12-point loss to DePaul.

The Cougars, though, were able to take advantage of a disinterested San Diego team to pull off a first-round upset in their CBI opener. I don't see it happening again. This is just the Cougars' second game since Feb. 19.
