2:20PM EST: TN/PUR Under 147.5 (4 Units)

Tennessee isn't an Elite shooting team and it'll be tough going for them at the rim with 7'4 Zack Edey protecting it. They shot just 41.8% from the floor in their Sweet 16 Win over Creighton who features another elite Rim Protecting Big. On the opposite end this Tennessee defense is an elite Unit. They're 3rd in Adj D, 5th in effective FG defense, and 5th in opponent 2-PT %. You can't exactly stop Zach Edey but the Volunteers will be able to contain him. These two played in the beginning of the season with Purdue winning 71-67 in a game that saw 78 Free Throw attempts. Purdue shot 35.2% from the floor and Tennessee shot 33.7%. Highly unlikely an Elite 8 game gets officiated as tightly as that game either.
