Texas Tech coach Grant McCasland knows how to teach and coax tough defense. The Red Raiders were fourth in the 16-team Big 12 in points given up (68 per game), seventh in shooting allowed (42.5%), and sixth at defending the 3-pointer. Versatile Florida can play any style with a defense that was fourth in the 16-team SEC in points given up (69.4 per game), second in shooting allowed (39.9%), and second at defending beyond the arc (29.3%). In the last game, they held a Maryland squad that was 22nd in the country in scoring (81.1 ppg) to 71 points and 40.7% shooting. Take Texas Tech/Florida UNDER the total.
