NCAAB- Ohio vs Akron

Take: Over 159 (1.5% play)

Both Akron and Ohio play at a fast pace, ranking 27th and 64th in KenPom's adjusted tempo, which typically leads to more possessions and scoring opportunities. Both teams are averaging over 80 points per game, with Akron surpassing 85+ points in its last three games and Ohio hitting 86+ in its last three outings. Defensively, Ohio struggles on the road, allowing opponents to shoot 49.3% from the field and 42.4% from three-point range. This plays into Akron’s strengths, as they rank 5th in made threes per game and 4th in overall field goal percentage. Additionally, Akron's weak defensive rebounding could give Ohio second-chance points. With high tempo and offensive efficiency on both sides, the total score should get into the 160s.
