Houston Team Total 75.5 vs Longwood
Calvin Sampson will let his team eat during this first round game. Houston, the best defensive team in the country will suffocate Longwood. The athleticism and size of the Cougars will be simply too much. Longwood is 302nd in FT%, 190th in 3PT% and 240th in 2PT%. The Houston defense is 13th in 3PT% (30%) and 4th in 2PT% (43.4%).
Nebraska vs Texas A&M +1
This game will come down to the wire and it shows in the spread. Yes, the Huskers make it rain from three lead by Keisei Tominaga, but this game will be won the boards by A&M. The Aggies average about 15 offensive boards (1st in the country) while the huskers give up 10 a game. Nebraska will really rely on efficient shooting and I dont trust them
Wisconsin vs James Madison +5 sprinkle ML +180
This game is ripe for an upset. Yes, Wisoc made it to the big ten championship game but they have been tremendously inconsistent. The shooting can have this team in the final four but you never know what Badger team will show up. The Dukes have been on a roll all year. This team is 2nd in the country defending the 3 point line which is a major cataylst for the Badgers. JMU is in the top 50 in both 3PT% and 2PT%. This team loves to play fast, so the badgers better bring their game or it could get away quickly.
