Old Dominion Monarchs vs. Baylor Bears [CBS | 5:45 PM ET]

Monarchs: If any team left in the tournament knows who they are, it's Old Dominion. The Monarchs stay true to what they do best, and that's play defense. Old Dominion was able to advance to the 2nd Round of the NCAA Tournament thanks to some impressive team defense against Notre Dame. Notre Dame only scored 50 PTS, and they aren't the only team to struggle scoring against the Monarchs. This defense only allows 56 PPG this entire season, as they've held 19 opponents under 60 PTS this season. Combine that defensive pressure with their rebounding prowess, and that's how you end up as one of the best mid majors in College Basketball. Old Dominion is 27-8 SU overall, and champions of the CAA conference with a 15-3 SU league record. The Monarchs are 12-8 SU and 9-10 ATS away from home this season. Old Dominion is only 2-6 ATS as the listed underdog this season. The Monarchs are also only 3-7 ATS in non conference games this season. F Gerald Lee is the only Monarchs player averaging double figures in PTS this season with 14.4 PPG. Lee shoots better than 54% from the field and grabs 4.9 RPG this season for Old Dominion.

Old Dominions is 3-14 ATS last 17 neutral site games.
Under is 4-0 last 4 neutral site games as an underdog.

Key Injuries - None.

PROJECTED SCORE: 60

Bears (-4, O/U 129): Baylor is in uncharted waters today, as it's been 60 years since they've won a game in the NCAA Tournament. It's been a banner year for Baylor, and they will look to keep it going today as the listed favorite. Baylor is 26-7 SU overall this season, winners of 6 of their past 7 games SU. The Bears finished 11-5 SU in the Big 12 conference, good enough for 2nd place in a very competitive league. Besides standing at 26-7 SU overall, the Bears are also a profitable 16-10 ATS this season. Baylor is 11-6 SU and 10-7 ATS away from home this season. The Bears are 8-7 ATS as a single digit favorite this season. Baylor has played their best basketball ATS wise against their best competition, going 14-9 ATS against teams with a winning record this season. 3 different Bears players average at least 14 PPG this season, led by G LaceDarius Dunn. Dunn averages 19.2 PPG and 4.8 RPG this season for Baylor. Baylor has scored 70 or more PTS in 8 of their past 9 games entering tonight.

Baylor is 6-1 ATS last 7 non conference games.
Under is 5-1 last 6 non conference games.

Key Injuries - None.

PROJECTED SCORE: 63 (UNDER - Total of the Day)
