Pick

I’m backing Middle Tennessee here. This is a fairly even matchup record wise and both have had success this season on a neutral floor, but it’s been Middle Tennessee that’s been the cover machine going back to last season and I expect it to be no different here. Charlotte is solid defensively, but sometimes I worry they rely too heavily on that defense to get the job done. I’ll side with Middle Tennessee for the win here and to move on in the tournament.
