Texas vs Nevada Free Pick March 16, 2018

The Texas Longhorns will be an underdog here against Nevada in the first round of the tournament, and the Wolfpack come in looking a bit sluggish. They lost twice to San Diego State at the end of the year, including a loss in the Mountain West Tournament. The Longhorns are one of the better defensive teams in the BIG12, and they are 10-3 straight up in non conference games this season. Their defensive expertise should serve them well here in a matchup versus a Nevada team that racked up 27 wins by beating up on inferior teams in the Mountain West Conference. Texas allowed just 66 points in a total of six neutral site games this season, roughly 10 points less than the Wolfpack allowed at neutral sites. Mohamed Bamba missed three games due to injury, but returned to score 10 points on 4-of-5 shooting in just 14 minutes in a loss to Texas Tech in the BIG12 Tournament. The Wolfpack have failed to cover in four of their last five non-conference games, and they are just 1-4-1 ATS in their last six neutral site games. The under is is 24-11 in the Longhorns last 35 neutral site games. The Wolfpack have failed to cover in four of their last five NCAA Tournament games, and I like Texas to win a low scoring game here in Nashville.

Take UNDER.
