A 187-point offensive explosion in the second game of their regular season series largely explains this generous total. It's a tad high, given that NC Central prefers a dawdling pace (281st in shots attempted per outing in Division 1) and the Eagles are coming off a 112-point game in the MEAC Tournament semis. Not to be overlooked is Howard allowing a league-low 63 ppg in conference competition. The projected blowout means Under players might not be sweating out the all-too-common foul and free throw shooting fest down the stretch.
