Not sure who wins this game, as I haven't been sure about any college teams this year in the tournament, but I'm taking the under in this matchup solely because of the matchups both teams played before meeting in the tournament we're against weaker opponents who never had a chance to advance far. This is honestly the first test of the tourney for both sides and the defense is sure to be at a higher caliber than the games past. Texas leaned to the under all season, so I expect them to continue their slow pace play and lean on the defense to give them a better chance to win. Plus, the Under is 7-0 in the longhorns last 7 straight. If the 3s aren't hitting for Xavier, Texas should win.

Official Play: Under 149

Side Bet: Texas -4.5
