- Nate Ament 8+ Rebounds (+120)
- Aiden Sherrell UNDER 12.5 Points (-132)
- Tyler Perkins OVER 15.5 Points (-108)
Miami (Ohio) vs. Tennessee Best Prop Bet
Rebounding is far from a strength for the Miami RedHawks. They rank 171st in rebounding percentage, grabbing only 50.1% of available rebounds while facing far inferior teams than Tennessee. The Volunteers are the second-best rebounding team in the country, ranking second in that metric while grabbing 58.8% of rebounds. Tennessee's top rebounder, Nate Ament, is poised to have a big game on the glass.
Hofstra vs. Alabama Best Prop Bet
No team shoots the three-ball more than Alabama, and they certainly shouldn't change that in this game, considering Hofstra's defensive weakness is defending the perimeter. The Pride do a great job of defending the interior, ranking third in opponent two-point field goal percentage, keeping teams to shoot 44.2% from two-point range. That could leave Aiden Sherrell of Alabama with little work to do when it comes to shooting. Alabama should just let its guards cook and leave Sherrell to play defense and grab rebounds.
Utah State vs. Villanova Best Prop Bet
Tyler Perkins posted some strong performances late in the season, scoring 18+ points in two of his last three games. Now, he and the Wildcats get to face a Utah State team that ranks 178th in the country in opponent three-point field goal percentage. Perkins has a chance to have a strong shooting day, especially if he can attack the perimeter of the Utah State defense.
