Tulane vs. UAB Pick
Tulane vs. UAB Spread Pick
- UAB (4 units)
Tulane is trending in the wrong direction as even with their win in their previous contest, they have still dropped six of their last eight games heading into this one. The Green Wave has their issues offensively and are terrible on the glass, which is part of the game where the Blazers excel. UAB does have some injury concerns to deal with as they have three of their top five scoring options listed as questionable here. Strangely, UAB is better on the road (7-2) than they are at home (7-7) this season but they do have the advantage on the offensive end of the floor. Mix home court with the offensive edge and their ability to control the glass to give the upper hand to the Blazers here.
