Alabama vs. Charleston Analysis
If you want to bet totals, this game should feature the highest number on the board.
Charleston ranks in the top 60 nationally in tempo and played at the fastest pace in the CAA. Meanwhile, Alabama plays at a top-ten pace and the fastest in the SEC. The Tide scored 100 points nine times this season but allowed 100 points three times, all within the last month.
Both teams also rank in the top 20 in the country in 3-point rate. This game will be lightning-fast and include tons of outside shots. If you’re thinking Over, get the number early because it should skyrocket.
Does that give the Cougars a chance to hang around or upset Alabama?
Charleston is comfortable playing fast, but Alabama’s pace is another level. It will come down to which squad makes shots, which could make the Cougars a nice flyer at the right moneyline odds or make either team an intriguing live bet if they start ice cold.
