Prediction
These are two very high-scoring teams set to do battle in the Sweet 16. BYU has lost just once since the beginning of February and that was an expected loss to a defensive-minded Houston team. Alabama ranks near the bottom of the country in points allowed and BYU’s 3-point shooting will keep them in this and give them a shot at winning. I’ll take the points.
Pick: BYU +5
