Best Bets for Feb. 22: NCAAM
Tennessee vs. Texas A&M
The SEC is packed with great basketball teams this season, and No. 6 Tennessee (21-5, 8-5) and No. 7 Texas A&M (20-6, 9-4) are two of the best. Tennessee has one of the best defenses in the nation (No. 4); Texas A&M is No. 32 in the country but the second-best in the SEC to Tennessee.
Both are 4-1 in their last five games. Texas A&M lost to Mississippi State, and Tennessee lost to Kentucky. I’m leaning towards Tennessee winning outright, but I’m betting on both defenses playing well. Tipoff is at 12 p.m. ET.
Our Pick: UNDER 130.5 at -105 (DraftKings)
