record 30-30
N. Texas -1
TCU is not a good defensive team and has struggled on the road in the past going just 2-9 last season. TCU is giving up 80 ppg and 47% shooting this season. North Texas is much better than the blowout against Indiana. Think they get an easy win in their first home game of the season..
Davidson -1.5
Davidson has some excellent shooters with 3 players over 50% from 3 pt. range with at least 16 attempts. They hung with Duke most of the game scoring 85 and beat UNC Charlotte by 19. Bonnies rely too much on the 3 and shooting just 39% from the field on the year. Think it will be hard for them to win on the road this year and think they lose their 5th straight game.
Nevada +5
Think Nevada is better than their record as their 3 losses have been by a combined 7 points. They have good experience and good depth and have done a good job on the glass outrebounding their opponent in all 5 games. Hill-Thomas and Green are shooting better in recent games after a slow start. ASU has struggled with their better opponents and struggle at the FT line shooting just 57%. Nevada could win this game SU and with ASU's poor FT shooting it could be close so will take the points.
Villanova -3
Think Nova has too much size and depth for Penn. Villanova is outrebounding opponents by 13 per game and Fraser and Wright should have their way on the inside. Nova also draws a lot of fouls shooting 25 FTs per game and if Onyekwe or Archibong get into foul trouble it could be a long night for the Quakers.
