The CBI will feature a first-round game in Daytona Beach, FL as the North Alabama Lions take on the Southern Utah Thunderbirds. Southern Utah won 22 games on the season. Northern Alabama made a late-season run with a 5 game-winning streak as the offense was playing well, but followed the run by losing their final 3 games. The offense that built the winning streak scored just 66 and 48 points in 2 of the 3 losses. Northern Alabama started the season at 5-1 over the total, but from that point on they were 13-9 to the under. Southern Utah averaged over 82ppg, but they played just 1 game with a total higher than 156.5 on the season. Northern Alabama played just 1 game with a total of higher than 156.5. This is a new arena for both teams, and it takes time to adjust to shooting backgrounds, so this total looks unreachable. Mke the play on the UNDER.
