BYU loves to run, but Pepperdine is outstanding on defense. The Pepperdine Waves rank as one of the best defenses in the WCC (and are second nationally in three-point field-goal percentage defense). That defense helps Pepperdine on the road, where they have a winning record. Pepperdine is 7-3 UNDER the total after a victory and just held Pacific to 61 points and 41% shooting in a win. And the UNDER is 4-0 when the Waves face a team with a winning record. They know how to control the tempo against BYU too, as the UNDER is 4-0 in the last four meetings. Play this one UNDER the total.
