The Texas A&M Aggies and Ole Miss Rebels face off on Saturday in a college basketball showdown at The Pavilion.
The Texas A&M Aggies can’t be happy with the way they have played so far this season and coming into this game they sit with a 7-5 record overall but they have lost three of the last four games. In the last game against MIssouri the offense really struggled scoring only 52 points and that led to a 16 point loss. On the season, Texas A&M is averaging 64 points per game while their defense is giving up 64.7 points per game. Texas A&M is shooting 42.6 percent from the field but deep they have struggled shooting only 29.8 percent from deep. Texas A&M is led by Emanuel Miller who averages 15.9 points and shoots 57.8 percent from the field.
On the other side of this matchup is the Ole Miss Rebels who sit with a 7-6 record overall and their biggest issue has been their inconsistency. Ole Miss had lost three games in a row before losing their last game against Mississippi State. Ole Miss’s defense was elite in the last game giving up only 46 points and that led to the victory. Ole Miss on the season is averaging 71.2 points per game while their defense is giving up 62.5 points per game. In this game if they want to come away with a victory, Ole Miss is going to need the defense to be elite. Ole Miss is led by Devontae Shuler who averages 14.7 points and shoots 40.2 percent from the field and 36.8 percent from deep.
The under is 9-0 in Texas A&M’s last nine overall. The under is 12-3-1 in Ole Miss’s last 16 games overall. The under is 6-1-1 in Ole Miss’s last eight games against the SEC. The under is 6-2-1 in Ole Miss last eight home games. The under is 7-1 in Texas A&M’s last eight road games.
All signs point towards under and I expect that will be the case in this game. Look for a slower paced game that stays under the total. Back the under to cash.
