The Pick:

  • One of these schools will win its first NCAA tournament game as the Raiders are 0-3 and the Bulldogs are making their first-ever appearance.
  • Peter Kiss is not only Bryant’s leading scorer but the leading scorer in the country.
  • Neither one of these teams is particularly good from beyond the arc, with the Raiders checking in at 235th in the country (32.9%) and the Bulldogs ranking 309th (30.8%)
  • Despite the lack of three-point acumen, this figures to be a high-scoring game with two below-average defensive teams and two offenses that turn the ball over a fair amount, 12.3 a game for the Raiders and 13.9 a game for the Bulldogs.
