#831/832 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Over 140 Points – Texas A&M vs Auburn, Friday at 12 PM ET - Our power ratings have this total set at 144 so we like the value on the Over here. Auburn is one of the faster paced (41st in the nation) and higher scoring teams in the country (80 PPG). They have scored at least 80 points in 11 of their 18 conference games and 17 of their 31 games overall. They are facing an A&M offense who’s overall numbers are solid (73 PPG) and they are peaking on that end of the court right now. The Aggies are on a 5 game winning streak and they’ve averaged 80 PPG during that stretch. A key reason this number is set lower than we think it should be was the result from their one meeting this season. Auburn won that game 75-58 so only 133 total points were scored. However a closer look reveals that the teams were both terrible offensively. A&M shot 27% from the field (17% below their season average) and Auburn made only 40% of their shot attempts (5% below their average). You think that’s bad, take a look at their 3 point numbers. The 2 combined to make 6 three pointers the entire game on a whopping 47 attempts (12%)! It was a face paced game as expected with 138 shot attempts AND 49 FT attempts. Expect the same here but we anticipate both teams to shoot much better pushing this well over the total. These teams are a combined 39-23 to the OVER this season and we expect to add another here.
