UTEP Miners vs Louisiana Tech Bulldogs. The NCAAB pick for this game is the UTEP Miners. UTEP dropped its past two games, but this is a squad that had some strong performances this season, including a recent win at Rice and an ATS cover at North Texas.

Louisiana Tech is a good team with an 11-2 home record, but I believe the UTEP defense, which ranks 95th in scoring defense and t-68th in steals per game, will keep this match competitive, so I’m going with the Miners and the points. The UTEP Miners will win to a predicted score of 74-67.
