Texas-Arlington opened a slight underdog. The 'dog has covered each of the last seven times in this series. But Arlington shouldn't be a home 'dog. The Mavericks would be riding a five-game win streak if not for an overtime loss to Arkansas State.
The Mavericks average eight more points per game than Texas State and give up fewer than 70 points per game. 
The Bobcats average only 66.8 points on the season. They have averaged just 63 points in regulation during their last four games.
