[What Would Jesus Do?]

Only 6 out of 20 "Under" picks so far.

There are only 2 slower teams in the nation, according to Pomeroy: Virginia and Jackson St.

I picked "Over" but the question becomes who imposes the tempo better. "They" always say that it's easier to slow an opponent down than to force a faster tempo. Which makes sense to me.

The thing is that Michigan is not a low-scoring team, despite being a slow-tempo team. That's because they are good shooters. But will they be good shooters against our D? Even in their loss to LSU they shot 58% from the field (albeit poorly from deep).
