Memphis at Texas A&M picks and predictions
Prediction
Texas A&M 81, Memphis 72
Moneyline
PASS.
A&M (-300) is the better side but isn't worth the juice to win outright. Avoid taking the underdog as well as Memphis has lost 2 of its last 3 games.
Against the spread
LEAN TEXAS A&M -7.5 (-106).
The Aggies have covered 3 of their last 5 games and are 2-1 ATS as favorites of between 0 and 10 points. Texas A&M is 4-2 ATS as a favorite this season. The Tigers are just 1-2 ATS over their last 3 games and have lost 2 of their last 3.
Memphis has lost its last 2 games as an underdog and is 1-1 ATS as an underdog of 2 or more points. The Tigers don't have as consistent scoring either with just 2 players averaging double figures and their top 4 scoring options all shooting 45% or worse from the field.
Take TEXAS A&M -7.5 (-110).

Over/Under
BET OVER 149.5 (-110).
If there's 1 thing both teams have done well this season, it is score. The Tigers are 5-3 O/U and have gone Over in 2 straight games, scoring 77 or more in both. They have scored 80 or more in half their games.
The Aggies are 6-3 O/U and are 4-1 O/U over their last 5. They have scored 89 points exactly in 3 of their last 5 games. Both teams play fast, and that should aid the Over here.
Take OVER 149.5 (-110).
