Saint Peter's vs Tennessee State Prediction
Two seasons ago, Saint Peter's shocked the world by reaching the Elite Eight of the NCAA Tournament, which started with an upset of SEC powerhouse Kentucky in the 2/15 matchup.
The Peacocks are back in the Big Dance after capturing the MAAC championship with three wins in three nights as the 5th seed.
Tennessee put together a fantastic season at 24-8 but lost its final two games to Kentucky in the finale and Texas A&M in the SEC tournament.
The knock on the Vols is head coach Rick Barnes' lack of success covering the spread in the Big Dance. Barnes owns a dreadful 2-8 ATS mark as a favorite at Tennessee in the NCAA Tournament, although the two covers came in the first round.
St. Peter's put together the best defensive numbers in MAAC play on 2-point field goal attempts and defensive efficiency. However, the Peacocks faced only three teams in the Top 100 this season and lost to all of them, while those squads did not make the Big Dance.
Pick: Tennessee -21.5 (-110)
