Texas A&M will get its college basketball season started off on Wednesday night when they face-off against North Florida, who suffered an 89-74 loss to Texas Tech on Tuesday.

After a rough 2020-21 season in which Texas A&M only won two games inside the SEC, it will look to bounce back in a big way. Quenton Jackson took advantage of a free year of eligibility to return for another season with the Aggies, and Virginia Tech transfer Tyrece Radford is expected to be the star of the team.

Everyone expects the Aggies to handle North Florida with ease on Wednesday night, but crazier things have happened in the world of college basketball.

North Florida vs. Texas A&M Prediction and Pick

Handicapping college basketball this early in the season is difficult, but one thing we do know is that both coaches have been with their respective teams for some time now. For that reason, I'm going to look at the total in this matchup.

The two teams played an extremely slow pace last season, and I don't expect that to change with the head coaches implementing a similar style of play this season. North Florida ranked 242nd in possessions per game and 271st in field goal attempts per game. Meanwhile, Texas A&M ranked 319th in possession per game and 318th in field goal attempts per game.

I'll take the UNDER in tonight's showdown.

Pick: UNDER 140.5
