April's Fool: No Foolin' Around... FAU +130

**Headsterx** · 04-01-23, 12:34 PM

The Action:

The Owls are the far more flexible team in this matchup. San Diego State is stubborn about playing at its preferred slow pace, grinding out a game over 40 minutes. Florida Atlantic, meanwhile, is deep and capable of finding which style works for a given matchup.

In FAU’s seven games that saw 60 or fewer possessions, the Owls went 7-0. That included sweeping very slow conference rival North Texas, with one game that featured fewer than 100 total points that the Owls stole on the road.

San Diego State has allowed one of the lowest 3-point shooting percentages in the nation, yet of the four teams remaining, allows the highest rate of shots to come from long range. That’s good news for FAU, which took the most 3s in Conference USA and often plays lineups where every player is ready to fire from deep.

On the other end of the floor, FAU cuts off passing lanes and forces teams into isolation, allowing the second-lowest rate of assisted buckets in the nation. For San Diego State, that means Matt Bradley and Darrion Trammell will need to execute with the ball in their hands.

Bradley will need a bounce-back performance after hitting just 6-of-27 shots in his last three outings.

If FAU is finding 3s offensively and forcing Bradley to answer from the midrange at the other end, I like the Owls to advance.

Yeah, I might bite and take under 130.5 as SDSU loves to grind it to a halt.
