Total: 136.00 | -110.00 Under
Result: Win
The NIT has reached its semifinals. That means the four remaining teams play at Madison Square Garden. That's a huge plus for the Under as college teams unfamiliar with the Garden's large arena and difficult shooting background have trouble scoring.
So I'm expecting a huge defensive matchup between Washington State and Texas A&M.
Washington State ranks 64th defensively giving up 65.3 points. The Cougars have held four of their last five opponents to 63 or fewer points.
Texas A&M holds foes to an average of 66.7 points. The Aggies have given up an average of 60.8 points in their last six games.
Both teams are below average in field goal percentage. Washington State ranks 321st in field goal shooting. Texas A&M ranks 241st in 3-point accuracy and 268th in free throw percentage.
