The Texas A&M Aggies of the Big 12 Conference drew a seven-seed in the Southwest Region of the 2011 Men's NCAA Basketball Tournament and will play 10th seeded Florida State Seminoles of the Atlantic Coast Conference at the United Center in Chicago with tip-off scheduled for approximately 4:10 PM Eastern.
The Aggies are listed as a 1-point favorite by, NCAA Basketball Odds makers, in a game seen as a potential barn burner between two schools from power leagues ACC and Big 12. If you're a fan of totals betting, the posted OVER/UNDER number is 121 while money-line odds will be left off the online board for this one.
This seven-10 matchup is between two evenly matched teams, of course we never know what will happen until they hit the court. The Seminoles finished the regular season with a 21-10 record including their ACC Tournament play. The 'Noles were 1-point losers to Virginia Tech in their last game covering as 2-point spread underdogs.
Early betting trends, always good tools for making NCAA Basketball Picks , show public betting opinion fairly even with 54 percent of side action on the Aggies while 46 percent are wagering FSU ATS. Game total percentages show the UNDER (122) a favorite pick at 59 percent.
I don't see this game as a, pass it around slow it down contest. I like to play totals in these evenly matched tournament games so my College Basketball Picks play on this game is that the score goes OVER 122 points.
