PICK: I’m going to take a stab on Saint Louis. The Billikens have done a great job so far this year, and were able to fend off a decent Memphis team in their last game. Saint Louis shot 46.7 percent from the floor in that one with 27-of-36 (75 percent) of free throws made. As for Maryland, they’re looking pretty darn good this year so far themselves but they haven’t really been challenged yet. This will probably be the Terrapins’ most difficult matchup yet, and I like the Billikens to get a cover in there.
