🏀 WAKE FOREST +2½ -104 ... A&M had a nice run to finish their season going 10-2 in the L12(9-3 ATS) but 10 of the games were vs an overrated SEC and before that, they lost 8 in a row vs the same SEC conference. The thing is Wake is simply the better team. The Demon Deacons have been chalk in 7 straight games(mostly by 8-10 pts) since being a 9 point dog at Duke where they lost by 2 points. The Aggies don't rebound well plus they will give up avg 2.4" per player in height. Wake plays big too, esp on offense where they pound it inside for a 58.8% 2P% (3rd) and 56% eFG% (8th). The biggest issue for WF will be protecting the ball as A&M when rolling, gets after the ball defensively and rank 9th forcing turnovers. They also commit a lot of fouls ranking 262nd in FTA/FG while WF offense ranks 76th getting to the line. Personally, I think the line is on the wrong side...Wake should be laying 2-3 points imho. I will play the moneyline as well as take the points since it's always great to get 2 or more when you believe the game to be close.
