Kyle Hunter – Sports Picks & Daily Packages

*3 Star Play Under* The Old Dominion Monarchs have completely changed the way they are playing this season. Old Dominion is slowing the pace down in a big way this season. The Monarchs have played two very low scoring games in their first three Division One matchups. The other was a 144 point game (82-62 ODU), where ODU made 17/31 three point shots.

Longwood prefers to play a little bit faster pace. They are the weaker team though based on overall talent on the roster. Longwood is a very short team, and Old Dominion has some shot blockers on the floor.

I think Old Dominion can control this pace and keep it below this posted total.

Take the under.

*I would play this as low as 139. Thanks and good luck*

*3 Star Play Under* The Virginia Cavaliers defense has proven to be a major strength. Virginia has been beaten by some great ground attacks (West Virginia for example). The Cavaliers are elite in the secondary though. Virginia is 18th nationally in QBR allowed. Cal is throwing the ball on more than 61% of their offensive plays. Cal is 114th in PPA/pass and 115th in yards per pass attempt. I think Virginia can do a good job of slowing that down here.

The Virginia offense is 79th in rushing play success rate. That has fallen off in recent weeks. Cal is 95th in rushing play success rate allowed. Virginia is only 74th in rushing explosiveness. Virginia is likely to run the ball pretty well here, but they play slowly and that should take quite a bit of time off the clock when they have the ball.

The weather here is a bonus. A blend of three forecasts calls for 16 mph sustained winds with gusts of 26 mph during this game. That should make both teams a bit more conservative.

Take the under.

*3 Star Play Under* The East Carolina Pirates offense has been bogged down on the regular this season. The Pirates are 114th in offensive success rate. They are 113th in offensive explosiveness. East Carolina is 107th in points per scoring opportunity on offense.

Charlotte has been able to be more competitive by slowing the game down to a crawl in recent weeks. Charlotte was only able to put up 3.8 yards per play against UAB last week. Charlotte is 135th nationally in offensive success rate. They are 121st in points per scoring opportunity. East Carolina's defense is 37th in points per scoring opportunity allowed. East Carolina is 26th in success rate allowed. The Pirates defense is a strong unit.

The weather here could be a bonus. The forecast currently calls for winds of 12 mph with gusts to 25 mph.

Take the under.

*I would play this one as low as 44 points. Thanks and good luck*

*3 Star Play Under* The Tennessee Volunteers have completely changed up the way they play. In previous seasons, they were a fast paced team that got into a lot of high scoring contests. They are a defensive team that has slowed their pace of play down drastically this year. In the last three weeks, Tennessee has played at a bottom 30 pace of play.

Texas A&M's offense is a weakness this season. The Aggies are 119th in the nation in yards per play at 5.12. They play at a below average pace, and Marcel Reed has proven to be a weakness at quarterback.

Texas A&M is 28th in the nation in yards per play allowed. Tennessee is 18th.

These two teams are 129th and 121st in the nation in explosiveness on offense.

Tennessee has seen 5 of their last 6 stay under this total. Texas A&M has seen 5 of their last 6 stay under this total.

Take the under.

*I would play this as low as 41. Thanks and good luck*
