South Carolina Gamecocks (3-4) vs Auburn Tigers (8-7)

When playing totals, one of things I look at is if a team can hit their free throw shots. At the end of the day, that’s the determining factor in whether games go over or stay under. For South Carolina, they have shown the inability to convert from the charity stripe, hitting a measly 60.5%. Meanwhile, Auburn shoots 66.3 from the line. Neither team shoots good from the field or beyond the arc and relies on tempo, pace and dribble-driving to get their points. The under is 10-5 in Auburn games and even though the under is only 2-5 in Gamecock games, it’s attributed to totals that were substantially lower than where this total sits. In the last 4 meetings the point total has reached 155 only once and I don’t expect it to today. Take the under.
