AAA's 10* *SIGNATURE* "ART OF WAR!" (8-4 RUN w/ 10* NCAAB!)
(NCAAB) Eastern Washington vs. California,
Point Spread: -7.50 | -106.00 California (Home)
Result: Win
This is a 10* ART OF WAR on California.

For a number of different reasons I think that the Golden Bears come to play today and expect them to pull away down the stretch for the comfortable ATS cover. California certainly comes in with momentum, it's won six straight and is 9-1 overall. It's the team's best start since 2001. Also note, this is the opener of five straight at home for the Bears who are coming off a 67-57 victory over Princeton on Saturday. And if history is any precedence, then California has to be loving its chances tonight, the Bears have won nine straight at Haas Pavilion, while also triumphing in 16 straight non-conference home games dating back to 2012. Simply put, I can't see the Eagles keeping pace, Cal has been getting the job done with suffocating defensive play, through 10 games the Golden Bears are limiting their opposition to just 58.6 per contest. One player to keep your eyes on today is Cal's junior point guard Tyrone Wallace who is one of the countries best at his position, he's already a two-time Pac-12 Player of the Week this year and ranks second in the Pac-12 at 19.4 ppg (he ranks 20th nationally in total points). As mentioned off the top, California comes in with a ton of momentum and so to would have Eastern Washington if it didn't just come off a 76-52 loss at Sam Houston State on Tuesday night, it's first setback of the year after opening the season with eight-straight wins; in my opinion, this definitely sets up as a classic "letdown" spot for the visitors after their big season opening win streak was snapped. Note that the Eagles are just 3-5 ATS in their last eight after scoring 60 points or less, while California is 3-2 ATS in its last five as a home favorite in the 6.5 to 9.5 points range. A fantastic situational play supported by extremely strong ATS trends, there's no question in my mind that CALIFORNIA is the sharp move in this one.
