Louisville has enjoyed a double-BYE in the ACC Tournament but will have to play their first game today when they take on the No. 7 seed, Stanford, with a berth in the semifinal on the line.

These two teams met in the final game of the regular season and the Cardinals were able to run away with a 20-point victory. Will we see a similar result tonight? Let's find out what the oddsmakers think.

Stanford vs. Louisville Best Prop Bets

Stanford Prop Bets

• Maxime Raynaud OVER 9.5 Rebounds (-140) via BetMGM

Maxime Raynaud hacked up 11 rebounds the last time these two teams faced off, so if he has another performance like that tonight, this bet will cash. He has reached double-digit rebounds in three of his last five games.

Louisville Prop Bets

• Terrence Edwards Jr. OVER 17.5 Points (-110) via BetMGM

Terrence Edwards Jr. has been on fire of late, including putting up a blistering 35 points against Cali on March 5th. He recorded 16 points against Stanford in the regular season finale, but he shot an uncharacteristic 35.3% from the field. I expect a big bounce back performance from him tonight.

Stanford vs. Louisville Prediction and Pick

Louisville is the clear better team, but are they worthy of being double-digit favorites? If we put the 20-point victory by them the last time they played Stanford to the side, you can envision how this game could be a close one.

The Cardinal rank 158th in the country in defensive efficiency and 69th in extra scoring chances per game, averaging +2.7 per game. If they can play some solid defense and create some extra chance by grabbing offensive boards and forcing turnovers, they're going to be in this game.

Stanford shot 30.4% in the last matchup against Louisville, 13% lower than their season average. I don't expect them to have a similar shooting performance tonight.

Pick: Stanford +10.5 (-105) via BetMGM
