Two very solid teams face off in this one, as Texas fought their way to an opening round victory over Colorado State, while the Volunteers handled 15th-seed Saints Peters, a Cinderella story from a few years ago, by over 30 points to advance to this matchup. Both teams have solid players, but I personally will be looking at Tennessee to overwhelm the Longhorns in this matchup down the stretch.

Tennessee-Texas Best Bet
Tennessee -6.5 (-108)

Tennessee has had a tough time when it gets to March in the calendar year recently, flaming out pretty early in a couple of their most recent trips to the tournament. However, something feels different about this Volunteers team, which absolutely ran through a difficult SEC Conference Tournament a couple weeks ago and looks to be in terrific form.
Dalton Knecht and Jonas Aidoo account for nearly 35 points per game between the two of them for Tennessee, and Texas could struggle to stop them with Dillon Mitchell being one of their leading rebounders but only averaging under eight rebounds per game. I think the Volunteers will just be more physical than Texas, and that could go a long way in shutting down Texas’ offense, and if they can’t score, beating Tennessee is going to be incredibly difficult.
