Why Tulane can cover
Tulane is playing its best basketball of the season, winning six of its last eight games. One of its two losses came on the road against Temple in an 80-77 final, but it covered the spread as a 4-point underdog in that game. The Green Wave bounced back with an 82-71 win at Rice on Saturday, springing the upset as 1-point road underdogs.
All five Tulane starters finished in double figures in that game, as junior forward Gregg Glenn III had 17 points, six rebounds and three assists. The Green Wave held Rice to just 28.1% shooting from the floor and 25.6% from 3-point range, as the Owls made just six field goals in the second half. They have covered the spread in five of the last six games between these teams. See which team to pick here.
Why Memphis can cover
While Tulane is one of the top defensive teams in the conference, Memphis has an offense that can put the Green Wave to the test. The Tigers have won three straight games and seven of their last eight, posting a season-high in points when they crushed UAB in a 100-77 final. They shot 62.3% from the floor, as PJ Haggerty had 23 points and a career-high nine assists.
Haggerty is one of the nation’s leading scorers, averaging 22.1 points per game. The Tigers also committed just 13 turnovers, which was their second-lowest total in their last nine games. They lead the AAC in 3-point percentage (39.5), with Hunter ranked fourth in the conference in 3-pointers per game (2.7). See which team to pick here.
