How to make Louisville vs. SMU picks
SportsLine’s model has simulated SMU vs. Louisville 10,000 times and is going Under on the total (166.5 points). Both teams saw the Under hit in their Saturday games, and of their four all-time matchups, they’ve averaged over 10 points less than this line. Their previous meetings have seen a combined 155.5 points on average.
The Under is 14-11 overall for the Cardinals this season as they’ll have two days off before Tuesday’s matchup. When having a rest of 2-3 days, the Under is 8-5 for Louisville. Meanwhile, this will be the third game for SMU with an O/U between 165 and 170 points, and the total wasn’t reached in either of the previous two.
