Liberty Flames at No. 19 Texas A&M Aggies (-18.5, N/A)
The Aggies are going to have to deal with an unexpected speed bump early this season as they deal with being one of the Big 12’s favorites.
After Billy Kennedy was hired to man the bench back in May, he was forced to take a leave of absence to undergo treatment for Parkinson’s disease. Associate coach Glynn Cyprien will lead the club until Kennedy returns and has already addressed the hype surrounding the team.
"We addressed it on the first day for a total of about five minutes," Cyprien told reporters. "And I think these guys ... because they're a veteran team, understand it's not where you start but it's where you finish. And it hasn't come up again."
Junior Khris Middleton is one of three returning starters and 10 lettermen on the team and could be poised for even bigger things after averaging 14.4 points and 5.2 rebounds last season.
These Aggies will come out with a bang.
Pick: Aggies
Duquesne Dukes at No. 16 Arizona Wildcats (-9, 148.5)
The Arizona Wildcats may have some problems getting on track.
They lost Derrick Williams to the NBA when he went No. 2 overall to Minnesota and sophomore guard Lamont Jones transferred to Iona. The Wildcats struggled early in their first game of the year and headed into the half against Valparaiso with just a two-point lead.
They ended up rallying for a 73-64 victory, but couldn’t cover as 14.5-point favorites.
"We're not the 16th-ranked team in the country," Arizona coach Sean Miller told reporters. "Maybe at some point we can get to that spot, but we still have a ways to go. These early games give us the opportunity to learn."
We’ll take the coach at his word even though Duquesne is looking to replace its top two scorers from last season.
Pick: Dukes
