Nebraska Omaha is a fun team to watch if you like scoring. The Mavericks are 7-5 on the season and have topped the 80-point mark in eight of their last nine games this season. There is a problem, however. They have been held in check vs. power-5 conference opponents in Iowa State, USC, and Kansas State, where they averaged just 62.3 points per game against the three. They are going to be in for a rude awakening coming east to take on an always defensively tough Pitt team. Pitt has stiffed many teams that are not used to facing them - especially when they are at home. Pitt has allowed just 59.8 ppg at home in out-of-conference games in their last 138 games. The total is way off, so look for this one to play UNDER the total.
