TCU vs Colorado Prediction

The season record between these teams is 1-1. TCU won the opening duel 68-57 at home, while Colorado was better 76-56 in Boulder a couple of days ago. I have no idea who’s going to win and advance to the second round of the tournament, but I know it’s going to be a low-scoring affair. The Horned Frogs are a fairly slow-paced team and their games are usually low-scoring; they are 10-20-1 Over/Under this season. Also, both H2H this year went Under. TCU has hit the Game Total Under in 22 of its last 34 games, while the Horned Frogs have hit the Team Total Under in 20 of their last 34 games. Additionally, Colorado has hit the Game Total Under in 20 of its last 37 games, while the Buffaloes have hit the Team Total Under in 20 of their last 37 games. Go with Under.
