#751/752 ASA play on 8* Over 147.5 Jacksonville State @ Belmont, 8 PM ET - These two teams have favored playing Over this season with a combined 23-17-1 Over record on the season. When these two teams last met back in January, they left their defenses in the locker rooms and proceeded to score 189 total points. That seems to be a recurring trend when these two teams meet as they scored 185 total points last February and have totaled more points than this total in 4 of the last five meetings. Belmont is the 9th highest scoring team in college basketball at 83.3PPG and have the 5th best shooting offense in the nation at 51.3%. The Bruins also have a top 60 3-point percentage in the country. Jacksonville doesn’t have those offensive numbers, but they do have some very good statistics as they average 75PPG and shoot 45.8% from the field which both rank top 102 in college hoops. The Gamecocks played Murray State earlier this year and the Racers have similar offensive/defensive efficiency stats as Belmont, but they are the slowest paced team in the conference and Belmont is the fastest. In Jacksonville State’s game against a slow Murray State they combined for 167 total points. Belmont faced an Austin Peay team a few weeks back who has similar numbers to Jacksonville State in terms of pace, OEFF and DEFF and that game finished with 157 total points. This game has all the makings of a shootout with 158+ points.
