Third game in four nights for both these teams in the fifth-place game of the Charleston Classic. Alabama-Birmingham had their hearts broken in a double-overtime quarterfinal loss to New Mexico three nights ago, but bounced back nicely to whip Nebraska 87-74 in a second-round victory. It wasn't quite the uptempo game the final score suggests as Nebraska was held to 43% shooting and just 6-20 from beyond the arc. Playing their third game in four nights with one of those games double OT, Alabama-Birmingham (4-1) is less inclined to run today, and the UDNER is 34-16-1 in the Blazers last 51 non-conference games. That's fine with Temple, a team that shoots 41.7%, and is 204th in the nation in scoring. The UNDER is 4-1 in Owls last five games vs. a team with a winning percentage above .600. Play Alabama-Birmingham/Temple UNDER the total.
