New Mexico State vs. Sam Houston

Sam Houston is one of the most explosive teams in Conference USA. The Bearkats average 83 points per game. But the Bearkats enter this Conference USA Tournament quarterfinal matchup against New Mexico having scored just 72 points against Liberty in their last game this past Saturday. Now, Sam Houston has to deal with a neutral-site setting, with this game being played at Propst Arena in Huntsville, Alabama, and facing a tough defensive foe in New Mexico State. The Aggies hold opponents to an average of 72.4 points per game, which ranks 114th. New Mexico State ranks 37th in defensive field goal percentage and 53rd in 3-point defense. The Aggies, however, are a below-average scoring team, averaging fewer than 76 points a game. They rank 296th in field goal percentage and 256th in 3-point shooting. Take the UNDER.
