Wofford vs. Charleston
7:00 PM Eastern
Both defenses have struggled, with Wofford ranking 288th in points allowed per possession overall and Charleston sitting 243rd in points allowed per possession at home. Charleston’s uptempo style, ranking 13th nationally in possessions per game entering Sunday, could lead to a high-scoring matchup.
Pick: Over 147 (Greg’s Handicapped Total: 155.5)
Grand Canyon vs. Louisiana Tech
7:30 PM Eastern
Grand Canyon’s defense has regressed compared to prior seasons, ranking 147th in points allowed per possession. Offensively, they’ve struggled with turnovers, ranking 217th in turnovers per possession. A notable 24.9% of their points come from free throws, the 16th-highest percentage in the country, which could be neutralized by Louisiana Tech’s disciplined defense, committing the third-fewest fouls per possession at home.
Pick: Louisiana Tech +2 (Greg’s Handicap: Louisiana Tech -2)
Montana vs. Northern Iowa
8:00 PM Eastern
Montana excels at guarding the 3-point line, ranking 56th in opponent 3-point percentage (29.9%) entering Sunday. This could disrupt Northern Iowa, whose offense relies heavily on 3-point shooting, ranking 6th nationally at 41.4%. However, Northern Iowa struggles with offensive rebounds, ranking 353rd in recovering missed shots.
Pick: Montana +10 (Greg’s Handicap: Montana +6)
Oral Roberts vs. Texas Tech
8:00 PM Eastern
Texas Tech boasts the fifth-most efficient offense nationally in points per possession, a mismatch against an Oral Roberts defense that ranks 351st in points allowed per possession and 305th in opponent 3-point percentage. On offense, Oral Roberts shoots 33.2% from beyond the arc.
Pick: Over 147 (Greg’s Handicapped Total: 153.5)
Air Force vs. Northern Colorado
8:00 PM Eastern
Northern Colorado performs significantly better offensively at home, ranking 13th in home-game points per game, compared to 139th overall. Meanwhile, Air Force struggles with fundamentals, ranking 330th in offensive rebound percentage and 336th in free throw shooting percentage.
Pick: Northern Colorado -7 (Greg’s Handicap: Northern Colorado -11)
Tarleton State vs. UTEP
9:00 PM Eastern
Tarleton State’s turnover issues play directly into UTEP’s strengths. Tarleton ranks last nationally in turnovers per possession, while UTEP forces the third-most turnovers per possession. UTEP also brings an efficient offense, ranking 24th in 3-point shooting percentage at 38.8% entering Sunday.
Pick: UTEP -16 (Greg’s Handicap: UTEP -21.5)
