St. John’s vs Georgia Prediction

I’m on the over here. I think this is going to be a high-scoring track meet, as there’s a ton of talent and pace on both sides to be able to get up and down the floor. Both are top-60 in offensive efficiency and I think we could have a game that ends up closer to 160. Give me the over.
