Texas A&M has posted an abysmal 48.6% two-point percentage (280th) and 30.6% three-point percentage (327th) this season, leading us to fade one of their most inefficient scorers in Zhuric Phelps. He’s got Texas A&M’s highest usage rate but shoots a poor 37.9% from the floor and 27.9% from three-point range.

Zhuric Phelps Points Prop

• Over 14.5 Points -120
• Under 14.5 Points -120

On the other side, Auburn’s defense ranks 22nd in opponent two-point percentage (46.2%) and eighth in opponent three-point percentage (29.4%), so it’s not going to get any easier for the Aggies on Tuesday night. Phelps went under 14.5 points in six of his last eight games so take the -120 odds at legal Texas sports betting apps and bet the under.

Texas A&M big men have thrived on the offensive glass from their poor shot making, as they lead the country in offensive rebounds per game (15.8) and offensive rebound percentage (41.6%). That synergy makes the over on Aggies forward Andersson Garcia’s 5.5-rebound prop a great bet with -125 odds.

Andersson Garcia Rebounds Prop

• Over 5.5 Rebounds -125
• Under 5.5 Rebounds -115

Garcia cleared this number in three of his last four games, including games with 11 and 10 rebounds. His recent increase in minutes has translated to plenty of rebounds, as Garcia had 6+ rebounds in six of seven games with 28+ minutes.

So long as he stays out of foul trouble early, he’s a great bet at college basketball betting sites to go over 5.5 rebounds against Auburn.
