The "over" might look tempting in view of what the Aztecs' offense just did in its last game.
But San Diego State got to face a terrible 13 seed in Furman whose defense regularly gets gashed by competition from stronger conferences, as evident in its regular season results.
The Aztecs often struggle to score inside, relying instead on getting hot from deep, which is bad news against Alabama's focused perimeter defense.
But the Aztecs' perimeter defense is also focused: they rank fourth nationally at limiting opposing three-point percentage.
Their perimeter defense plus their high-level shot-blocking will keep the Tide from scoring too many points.
