Tulsa at UAB

Neither Tulsa nor UAB has gotten any traction so far this season. Tulsa enters this game at 6-8 on the season, while UAB is at 7-7. This game will be played at an above-average pace, but the caveat to a total this high is that neither team is very good at knocking down 3's as they combine to shoot just 32.5% from deep. They both take a lot of 3s and average 50 a game between them. That is a lot of empty possessions from teams that take a high number of 3s at a low success rate. They also both defend the three well, as together, they allow just 33% from deep. I think this total is too high and will make the play UNDER the total.
