#631/632 ASA PLAY ON 8* Under 135.5 Points – Nebraska @ Maryland, Tuesday at 7 PM ET - The Terps continue to be a big time UNDER team. They have slowed their games down to a snails pace (13th in the Big 10 in tempo) limiting possessions and now going UNDER the total in 5 of their last 6 games. Their only OVER during that stretch was vs Ohio State a game that was on pace to stay UNDER the entire game and eclipsed the total by just 1 point when the 2 teams combined to score 15 points in the final 2:00 minutes of the game. Their 5 other games during that 6 game stretch have stayed UNDER by a combined 94 points or 19 points per game! Nebraska has won only 1 game in the Big 10 this year which was a 62-61 win @ Penn State on Saturday. While their offense ranks dead last in the conference in efficiency, their defense has been fairly solid ranking 7th. Since coming back from nearly a month long covid break, the Husker defense has allowed only 1 team to top 66 points in their last 5 games. They held a potent Illinois attack to just 66 (in regulation), allowed just 61 vs Wisconsin and 61 vs Penn State. The problem has been the offense averaging only 58 PPG over their last 5 games. Maryland’s offense ranks 12th in efficiency so in this game we have 2 of the 3 worst offenses in the Big 10. On top of that, neither of these teams get to the FT line very often and when they do Nebraska hits 60% in conference play while Maryland makes 68%. The Terps have gotten to 70 points just once in their last 7 games and Nebraska hasn’t topped 66 in their last 5. This one stays UNDER this posted total.
