San Diego State vs Alabama Prediction | Sweet 16 March Madness Expert Picks
Alabama entered the NCAA Tournament as the top overall seed. Heading into the Sweet 16, the Crimson Tide are still the favorites to win it all. They haven’t had much trouble despite star player Brandon Miller struggling so far. If he is able to focus and get his shots to fall, it will be tough for anyone to knock off Alabama.
San Diego State, on the other hand, has seen some ugly moments in the NCAA Tournament, but that is exactly what the Aztecs strive to do. They are one of the best defensive teams in the country, and they should have success on that end of the floor once again. The question will be if they can score enough points to win.
If I were betting the point spread of this Sweet 16 game, I would side with San Diego State. Alabama should win, but the Aztecs have the tools to make this a fist fight. For that reason, the UNDER looks to be the best bet of the day.
Our college basketball betting San Diego State vs Alabama prediction tonight will be the point total going UNDER at BetUS.
For what it’s worth, the ESPN Matchup Predictor gives Alabama an 84.7% chance to win.
