TCU vs Arizona State Prediction | March Madness Expert Picks and Bracketology

Arizona State will be playing its second game of the NCAA Tournament on Friday after beating Nevada in a First Four matchup. In that contest, the Sun Devils put forth one of their best offensive performances of the entire season. ASU scored 53 points in the first half alone and finished with 98 for the game. Such is life when a team shoots over 62% from the field and 52% from 3-point range.

Bobby Hurley’s team figures to be in for a bit more defensive resistance in Friday’s matchup against TCU. The Horned Frogs have proven to be particularly skilled at defending the perimeter and finished the year ranked 20th in 3-point percentage defense.

From a personnel standpoint, the guard play in this game figures to be top-notch. Mike Miles Jr. and Damion Baugh are the offensive leaders for TCU and are not ones to shy away from pushing the pace. For Arizona State, DJ Horned and brothers Desmond and Devan Cambridge are all solid 3-point shooters and happy to play fast in transition.

While both teams have been statistically sound at the defensive end this season, a quick pace combined with several scoring guards bodes well for the Over to hit. The fact that several books across the market are starting to shift in that direction only reinforces the decision to buy in on the favorable number at BetUS.

Our official college basketball betting TCU vs Arizona State prediction will be OVER 141.5 at BetUS. 

For what it’s worth, the ESPN Matchup Predictor gives TCU a 68.1% chance to win.

Bet: OVER 141.5 (-110 at BetUS Sportsbook)
