Northern Iowa is underrated with a 20-12 straight up record and 19-12 ATS this season. The Panthers have won 11 of their past 15 games (10-5 ATS) and they lost by just a point to Valparaiso in the conference tournament, holding the Beacons to just 19 points after halftime. Northern Iowa is #52 in the country yielding 70.3 points per game. The Panthers feature five double-figure scorers led by Tytan Anderson, who averages 15.3 points and shoots 57.9 percent from the field. Trey Campbell shoots 42.9 percent from 3-point range. SMU has alternated wins and losses its past 10 games and the Mustangs lost to Clemson 57-54 in the ACC Tournament. They are 3-5-1 ATS their past nine games and disappointed to miss The Big Dance. Northern Iowa has the motivational edge. Grab the big points with Northern Iowa.
