South Carolina vs. Temple

This game is a good measuring stick for both programs, who each enter with just one loss on the season. South Carolina loves to play a slow tempo, and fewer possessions has been the norm in their games. Opponents have shot poorly against them, with five of the six failing to shoot better than 42%, and they are allowing just 61 points per game. Temple has played against opponents willing to pace the game in a bit of a higher rate, but they will not coax the Gamecocks into coming out of their game. It is likely that game one will see some jitters, playing at Madison Square Garden, so I like this one to play out UNDER the total.
