Rice and SMU combmined to go under 124.
Both teams can't score, and Rice can't rebound.

This game will be both a brick laying, snooze festival.
First team to 50 wins.

[PRiiMO]

they beat em by 7 on the road last game
and the total was 143 last game why would they have the total so low???

Not really following your logic here.

In the previous meeting between Rice and SMU, SMU shot 56% (27-48) from the floor, 42% (11-26) from the three point line and only committed 15 turnovers (which is a lot better than their season average of 22 turnovers per game). Those are some pretty decent numbers.

As far as Rice's inability to rebound, I think you have to look at the situation rather than just overall stats. While Rice is ranked #232 in total rebounds per game, they out-rebounded SMU 32-21 and 11-2 on the offensive glass in the first matchup (pretty scary numbers considering what SMU shot that game). Not to mention that their team defensive rebounding % is ranked 7th nationally.

While I don't expect SMU to shoot the lights out again like they did the first game, you're talking about a team that has lived and died by the "three" all season long. Not exactly a team I'd want to roll the dice on the totals with, especially with so many other options on the board.

I booked it at 124 before work this morning, if it ends up on 125, I'll take the hit.
You can get 126.5 I see now at a few shops.

These two teams have been under covering machines as of late.

[stevenash]

27-18 half.
I like my chances.

Keep fading my plays, it's all good.

That was a seriously sick-ass finish to a game. And everyone who took Rice got screwed over on the spread as well.

Had the game pegged, wrong result, I still stand by it, but I'd rather be wrong and cash than right and lose. lol
