UCF vs. Nebraska (-3.5, 158.5)
While Nebraska entered Saturday ranked just 188th in rebound percentage, they should have the edge on the boards against Central Florida, who came into the Crown Final Four ranked 337th in defensive rebound percentage, allowing opponents to grab 32.1% of their missed shots as offensive rebounds.
Central Florida is also playing shorthanded, with regular season leading scorer Keyshawn Hall out of the lineup. On top of that, the Knights played the later game on Saturday — and went five extra minutes with their game going to overtime.
Pick: Nebraska -3.5 and Under 158 (Greg’s Handicap: Nebraska -4 and Total 157)
