Released this game early to beat what we think will be smarter money coming in on the Tigers as we get closer to tip. Houston's best player senior PG/ SG Marcus Sasser is dealing with a soft tissue injury that hampered him in their last two games. I say soft tissue because these type of injuries tend to need time to heal and time is not something you get a whole lot of on the turnaround from the round of 64 to the round of 32.
Auburn has at times been a lackluster roster to bet on this season. Countless times players making costly mistakes throughout the season that has cost outcomes of games. This is a athletic, bunch with quality talent. Not nessesarly the top tier talent of last year or Auburn's 2019 final four run squad, which is why we have not been more pro betting with Auburn. However, this particular matchup sets up well- the defensive acumen was on point last time out against Iowa, making this point spread too inflated by our numbers. Bet Auburn plus the points and sprinkle some on the moneyline (+200).
