Texas shut down North Carolina State as an underdog to advance, 68-66, shooting 37% but allowing 39%. Texas is seventh in the 16-team SEC in points scored. BYU last played in the Big 12 tournament, turning on the defense in a 68-48 win over West Virginia, before falling to Houston, 73-66, both sailing UNDER. Look for both teams to lean on defense again. Play Texas/BYU UNDER the total.

Pro Picks
Texas vs. BYU
BYU has done their best to play the running game, but their last two have not gotten to this total, and opponents are starting to do what they can to take them out of the running game as much as possible, yet the totals in their games continue to rise. Texas is 4-0, and has not allowed any team to score more than 73 against them. The Horns seldom get into a track meet with anyone, and no team has scored more than 86 against them since seven games prior to the end of the 2011-12 season. The Cougars have been slowed vs. better than .600 teams as they are 8-3 to the UNDER in their last 11 facing them, as well as at a neutral site where they are 8-2 to the UNDER in their last 10. Play the UNDER.
