The Orange need to make the most of a matchup that they are supposed to take advantage of, especially after an exciting victory over Notre Dame. Oakland's offense, which is just the 154th most effective in basketball and shoots the ball at just 44%, should be slowed down by the Orange's defense.
Against a Grizzlies club that is outrebounded by about 10 per game, the Orangemen ought to be able to pound the offensive boards. Tonight's spread will be covered by the Orange
