Saint Peter's vs. Tennessee

Saint Peter's was second in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference in points allowed (63.4 per game), and they leaned on that great defense to win the tournament, allowing 48, 60, and 63 points. Can the Peacocks' defensive style help them replicate that NCAA Tournament run from a few years ago? That remains to be seen, as they have all different players and a new coach. The Vols will be one of the most athletic teams they have seen all season, as they average just shy of 80 ppg. Saint Peter's is on a 20-11 spread run, 11-2 ATS at neutral sites, and 23-11 ATS after allowing 65 or fewer points in two straight games, but I think the Peacocks will be overwhelmed with the pace, athleticism, and precision offense of the Vols. Take the big points with Saint Peter's to cover, and play this game to sail OVER the total.
