Marquette @ West Virginia (Over/Under 142.5)
These two could top out a regulation game in the (73-75) Possession range. WVU carries in (1.05+) PPP and Marquette holds an efficient (1.05). I will be very surprised to see this one not cross the (150) threshold.

Picks are generated from an Excel spreadsheet which tracks/compares stats across 30+ categories and projects match-up results.
Dayton @ Duquesne (Over/Under 148.5)
This should should be an up and down the court Offensive slug-fest. Duquesne comes in averaging (73.9) Poss Per Game and (1.05) PPP. Dayton enters the game at (68.8) Poss Per Game and (1.03) PPP. Expect to see each team end with (72-74) Poss and at that pace will only need to average (1.01) PPP to cover the (148.5).
OVER 148.5

I've followed Sports Betting for 7-10 years and worked with Excel for
10-12. Finally smartened up, and decided to combine the two and create a
spreadsheet designed to organize, calculate, and display stats for
college basketball teams. To take it a step further I added a predictive
element aimed towards projecting points for each side and the total
overall. Stats tracked include:
True Shooting - Off/Def
Effective Shooting - Off/Def
Possessions per Game w/expected Possessions for match-up
Rebound % - Off/Def/Total
Extra Scoring Chances (per game)
Four Factors
Strength of Schedule, and many more
If you're interested in securing the spreadsheet, please send me a
message and I'll send you the details. Even if you choose not to make
sure of the predictive feature, this is a valuable tool for anyone
looking to display multiple match-ups in a single, easy to read, screen.
