South Alabama has positioned themselves to have a shot at the NCAA Tournament even if they don't win the conference tourney. They are 24-5 with an RPI hovering around 30. A bad performance here could change that and they know it. Florida International has struggled in a big way against the best teams they have played at home. They have been a home dog against the top four teams on their home schedule: Western Kentucky, Miami –Fla, George Mason, and South Florida, losing all four games ATS. The Golden Panthers have been out-shot 49% to 38%, as well as 42% to 28% from three-point range in these games. This is a team that has struggled to hang onto the ball all season committing an alarming 500 turnovers to just 337 assists. They have averaged 21 turnovers a game vs. the top eight teams on their schedule. The Jags have done very well on the road as they are 10-2 ATS in their last 12. As expected, the Golden Panthers struggle against the very good teams. They enter with just a 3-9 ATS mark against teams that are .600+ on the road. This game should be a comfortable double-digit win here.
