T.M. Selection: Maryland.

I like Maryland to cover the spread against Florida in this game on Sunday. Maryland has lost 3 games in a row but they haven't looked terrible in those games. Their previous 2 losses were by 6 points or less in both games and their biggest loss this year was by 8 points. Even though they have lost 3 games in a row, their defense has looked good in all of those games. They gave up less than 65 points in 2 of those losses and the other game they gave up 67 which was the most of those 3. The most points they have given up in a loss all year would be 71 points to George Mason but they put up 66 themselves and only lost that game by 5 points. I think they are going to continue playing good defense in this game and stay in it with Florida. Florida only has 2 losses in their 9 games this year but those 2 losses were in their previous 3 games. Their most recent loss was really bad though, they lost on their own home court by 15 points to Texas Southern, and that was Texas Southern's 1st win this year and they were 0-7 going into that game. Florida has beaten up on some really bad teams this year but their schedule has not had a lot of quality teams on it. I think that Florida is going to struggle a bit against Maryland and that good defense here. I like Maryland to cover the spread here.

T.M. Prediction: 64-61 Florida.
