Texas A&M Aggies vs. Northern Iowa Panthers
[h=1]Pick: Texas A&M -7[/h]In this matchup you’ve got the three seed in A&M who absolutely dominated in their first round matchup against Green Bay, going up against a pesky UNI team that needed a buzzer beater from half court to take down Texas. The Aggies are a very big team that can really fill it up with players like Daniel House and Jalen Jones. Besides their scoring threats, they are also very apt defensively, ranked 35[SUP]th[/SUP] in the nation in terms of points per game, to go along with holding teams to 40.5% from the field. UNI has had a very interesting season and up and down season. They started off relatively weak; however, they were able to turn it around by beating Wichita St. in their conference tournament and never looking back. Winners in 9 of their last 10 games, they got hot at the right time and Wes Washpun is playing his best basketball. I think UNI is a solid team, but the talent here from the A&M side will be too much for the Panthers in this one. Take Texas A&M to cover the 7-point spread.
