The Tommies enter Thursday playing at the No. 350 pace in the country, but they are top-40 in the country in effective field goal shooting. St. Thomas&#8217; last ten games have seen an average of 149.7 points per game, and that includes a 79-66 win over North Dakota State. Eight of the Tommies&#8217; last ten games would have cleared this mark in the mid-130s. St. Thomas is top-25 in the country in three-point shot rate with 46.5-percent of the Tommies&#8217; field goal attempts coming from beyond the arc. Three-pointers account for 37.5-percent of their points this season, which is top-30 in the country. That&#8217;s a recipe for success against a North Dakota State defense that is allowing opponents to shoot 36.2-percent from three-point range this season. The Bison&#8217;s defense is No. 284 in efficiency, No. 325 in effective field goal defense, No. 346 in forcing turnovers, No. 317 in three-point defense and No. 288 in two-point defense. Seventeen of North Dakota State&#8217;s last 19 games against Division-I opponents would have cleared this total.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_83573\"  width=\"870\" height=\"489\"  data-origwidth=\"870\" data-origheight=\"489\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/kJFVe3qrh68?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=1&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;hl=en_US&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"Free Sports Picks | WagerTalk Today | College Basketball &amp; NBA Picks | UFC Fight Night Bets | Feb 22\"  src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/kJFVe3qrh68\/maxresdefault.jpg\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div><\/div><span itemprop=\"video\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"><meta itemprop=\"embedUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/kJFVe3qrh68\"><meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"Free Sports Picks | WagerTalk Today | College Basketball &amp; NBA Picks | UFC Fight Night Bets | Feb 22\"><meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"Thursday February 22 2023: Get daily free picks, sports betting tips, and advice from The Prez and Teddy Covers Monday through Friday on WagerTalk Today.
