The NCAA has instituted some progressive rule changes over the past couple years as a mechanism to increase the scoring and make the games more exciting. The meeting between Charleston and Delaware is defying that, as the total here is set at 117 as of this writing, just a few points away from the lowest total posted of the year, which is 114. While these teams are not prolific scoring clubs by any stretch, the total in games that appear ugly, slow tempo, and poor shooting, have for the most part not equated to the totals offered by odds makers. Games this season with a total less than 126 have seen the OVER respond with a resounding 57.3% cover rate. I think this one has been set too low. Play this one OVER the total.
