Once South Alabama sheds the rust in only its second game since Feb. 27, the Jaguars should play decently enough to stay within this whopping spread. The Jags have known for more than a week that they were NIT-bound, giving them plenty of practice time to prepare. The second-place finsher in the Sun Belt has covered in six of the last nine outings. Auburn was counting on an NCAA Tournament bid and might be disconsolate after getting left out. The Tigers own a pedestrian defensive effcency rating, which opens the door to enough points for the Jags.
