Sam Houston State is averaging 81.5 points while their defense is giving up 48.3 points per game. The defense is ranked 2nd best in college basketball, and it’s going to need to be the defense that locks down again here.

There are both strong defensive teams and I expect both defenses are going to find success here. Sam Houston State is giving up only 48.3 points per game, and they are going to lockdown again here. Look for this game to be lower scoring and it will stay under the total. Back the under to cash.
