It’s time to make 2010 NCAA Tournament predictions in the 1st round game between the Texas Longhorns and Wake Forest Demon Deacons.
2010 NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds:
It’s a bit of a surprise to see the Texas Longhorns favored by 4.5 at BoDog Sportsbook when you considering how up and down they’ve been this season heading into their 1st round 2010 NCAA tournament game against the Wake Forest Demon Deacons. The total in the Texas vs Wake Forest game is set at 147. Texas has only covered the college basketball betting odds in 10 of their 29 lined games this year.
Texas’s Offense against Wake Forest’s Defense:
Texas knows how to get point both inside and out, and their above average shooting percentage (46.9%) has netted them 81.2 a game in 2010. The Wake Forest defense is great at forcing ugly shots and it will be interesting to see how the Longhorns react to the aggressive defensive approach.
Wake Forest’s Offense against Texas’s Defense:
The Wake Forest Demon Deacons score 73.0 a game on 43.8% from the field this year, and they really don’t have many great shooters – especially from long distance. The Texas defense does a pretty solid job and they have enough to limit the amount of points Wake Forest scores in this 1st round NCAA tournament game.
2010 NCAA Tournament Bracket and Betting Predictions:
This is a really tough one to call for bracket predictions and betting, but I think that the Texas Longhorns should be able to cover the point spread and advance because of their ability to frustrate the Wake Forest Demon Deacons on offense.
