NEVADA/MICHIGAN STATE Under 139.5 - While everyone is fully aware of the defensive prowess of Michigan State, Nevada has surprisingly comparable defensive numbers this season, albeit vs. some softer competition. The Wolfpack are allowing 66.0 points per game compared to 67.3 points for the Spartans, and Nevada is also allowing an opponents field goal percentage of 41.7%, compared to 45.7% for MSU. Given the fact that Michigan State has not reached 70 points in 8 of their last 9 games, and that this is the best defense that Nevada will have faced all year, I am anticipating a low scoring contest in here.
