Play Rating: 5%
Play: Total Under 127.0 (-110)
Indiana Hoosers vs the St. Mary's Gaels primetime Thursday night from Portland, Oregon sets the stage for our first 5% Best Bet of the NCAA Tournament. St. Patricks day will hopefully get even greener come 10pm on the east coast as we are attacking this matchup from a totals standpoint with value under the total.
First Four to Final Four is what the Hoosiers are attempting to do just one year removed from UCLA's impressive run accomplishing the rare feat. After watching this Indiana defense stifle a very good Wyoming team that ranks similarly with St. Mary's and plays at a faster tempo. It is surprising to see the opening total at 127. The Gaels are one of the slowest tempo teams in the country, actually have only played in one game this calendar year with 70 possessions or more. St. Mary's also has the ninth best defensive effiency rating in the country.
The market is already starting to move, seeing 126.5 now and some of the sharper sports books moving lower. Two top 20 defenses, low possessions, neutral court, win or go home situation setting up for a solid under environment. Bet under- Let's cash!
