Tenn State is mostly juniors and seniors and should be able to compete for awhile at Duke, who has scored 94, 96, 88, 93 and 94 at home.

10* under 154 Duke hasn't played since December 2, a period of almost 2 weeks. They are a young team that has to be thinking of exams and moving on the Christmas break. Ga Southern was a solid team last year but is just 3-4 and lost to Auburn by 30 points. I hope to see just 148 to 152 scored on Tuesday night in Durham.

10* under 194.5 Chicago is one of the best defensive clubs in the NBA as they rate #4 overall in defensive statistics. The Bulls have 6 overs, 14 unders and 1 push so far so they tend to stay under the total. Joakim Noah is solid inside on defense. The 76ers have just one win and are shooting just 40.2% this year. They have 11 overs and 14 unders. I think we see a game in the 185-192 range that stays under.

Houston at Rhode Island 10* under 145 Rhode Island lost a key player (EC Matthews) in its first game of the season and has struggled some without him. The Rams have beaten the teams they're supposed to beat, but they're averaging just 68.7 points per game and rank 312th in the nation with just 68.2 possessions. Part of that is because the Rams are a terrible free throw shooting team, 61.8%. They did beat Valpo but the score was 58-55 (113). Houston boasts the highest point per possession ranking in the country, but the Cougars have played just one team in the Kenpom top 150 (UL-Monroe #145). In fact, according to Kenpom, Houston has played the easiest schedule by defenses faced in the country. Sagarin also says that the Cougars have played the easiest schedule in the nation. Playing at home I think Rhoddy controls the tempo, and Houston finds it hard to score now that they're stepping up in competition. I have this one at 134.8. Kenpom says 144. Massey says 137. GL!

10* under 172.5 I was hoping for a higher total as Kenpom expects a game reacing 176 points but UNC just played a high scoring game as home with Maryland as Melo Trimble and Diamond Stone and Rasheed Sulaimon made some nice shots and we had a game that went way over. UNC has Marcus Paige outside as well as Brice Johnson and Kennedy Meeks inside to score easy baskets. Davidson does have some solid players and should put up points as their game ended 90-72 (162) last year but I think this total may be too high.

They lost at home to Richmond but the game made it to 170. Arkansas did beat WF easily last year so the Deacons will look for revenge. WF is favored by 5.5and plenty has to happen to reach 166.

Pittsburgh played a 95-79 (174) game with Detroit at home. The Panthers are led mostly by juniors and seniors (Young, Artis, Luther, Robinson, Jeter).

Eastern Michigan at Oakland 10* over 151.5
Oakland is the last Division 1 team to play a game this year. They went to Spain in the summer and were 3-0. Their coach (Greg Kampe) has been at the school for 32 years. Oakland played two exhibition games and scored 113 and 130 points. They are led by 5'9" PG Kahlil Fielder, who averaged 17 ppg and 7 apg. Max Hooper scored 19 and 24 in the two exhibition games and scored his 24 on 8 3-pointers. Gibson, Daniels, Brechting, Dorsey-Walker and Cumberland should contribute.
EMU did lose key players but Tim Bond and Mangum scored double digits in a home win vs. Vermont. These two played a gane that reached 166 points early last year. The Grizzlies opened with 175 and 166 points in their first two games last year.
Hopefully, we see a fast paced game with plenty of points.
