SportslineAI is predicting a 64-70 game totaling to 134. My Early Edge in 5 partner EC is already on the over as well. Watch both of us lay out our explanations on Early Edge in 5 at 4pm ET.

The four senior starters who returned for Tennessee have to feel as if they passed the biggest test because they’re in the Sweet 16 after not making it past the first weekend the last two seasons. I think this group feels as if everything from here on out is gravy. Final Four, here come the Vols. Tennessee's defense will be on point tonight; it allowed opponents to shoot only 37.2%. And the Vols can also pour it on; the average score to their games was 71-58. I’m on Tennessee to win and cover.

It's VERY risky to bet overs in Tennessee games considering they are allowing the third fewest points per game this season at 57.8. But at the same time, FAU has scored at least 66 points in 23 consecutive games. It's hard to see the Owls winning the game if the pace is slow and deliberate. On the season, FAU averages 78.4 PPG and with rested legs, I expect to see some tempo in transition from them. I would be surprised if the winner didn't score 70+ and in a tightly contested game, the lower should be in the mid-60s.
