The total in the first meeting was 132.5 and the game ended on 136. I think we see more than that this time. Houston attempted 10 less free throws than their season average in the first meeting, and the Aggies shot below their season free-throw percentage in that game. Texas A&M also was without their second leading scorer Tyrece Radford in the first meeting.
Texas A&M's offense has been on a roll. The over has cashed in the last six Texas A&M games, with them scoring 70+ points in their last seven games. Houston has put up 67+ points in 11 of their last 13 games.
We saw Houston put up 86 in the tournament opener and Texas A&M put up 98. Although I do not expect that kind of shootout, getting into the 140s+ is reasonable.
