Georgia’s pace and size should keep this from turning into a track meet. The Bulldogs have rolled out a balanced attack at Stegeman Coliseum, averaging about 102 points at home while holding opponents near the mid‑60s. Florida A&M hasn’t shown the firepower or efficiency to hang in with that level of depth, so the natural matchup incentives point to shorter possessions and fewer overall made shots than the number implies.

Florida A&M’s offense has been a struggle. They score roughly 66 points a night on inefficient shooting (36% FG, 23.8% from three) and rely on a couple of contributors — Tyler Shirley and Devere Palmer Jr — to create any offense. Turnovers are a glaring issue (north of 16 per game) and they’re getting beaten on the glass; Micah Octave’s rebounding is useful, but the team only manages under 30 boards per contest, which kills second‑chance scoring and quick transition opportunities.

Georgia’s profile is the opposite: efficient, deep, and physical. Wilkinson, Cain, Wilkins and Catchings combine for steady scoring, the team shoots near 48% overall, racks up assists, and dominates the glass (around 46 rebounds). Their defense is active — multiple blocks and a near‑14 turnover rate — which converts defensive stops into controlled transition points rather than chaotic shootouts. That control actually helps depress totals because the Bulldogs can lean on shot‑clock possessions and end possessions cleanly.

Matchup mechanics favor the Under. Georgia’s rebounding and length will limit Florida A&M’s offensive rebounds and open‑court chances. When a superior frontcourt corrals misses and a disciplined backcourt forces turnovers, the opponent’s scoring possessions shrink in both frequency and quality. Florida A&M’s tendency to cough up the ball only accelerates Georgia’s ability to control the clock, not necessarily inflate scoring.

Game script I expect: Georgia opens with efficient half‑court sets and forces FAMU into rushed possessions and contested looks. Few long, high‑efficiency runs will come from the Rattlers because they get pushed off the glass and into turnovers. The Dogs will produce steady scoring but won’t need to run in transition to secure separation — that steadiness keeps the combined total under the posted number.

I’m taking the Under 171.5 at -110. Between Florida A&M’s offensive inefficiency, turnover problems, and rebounding deficit — plus Georgia’s defensive activity and depth — the most likely path produces fewer made shots and limited second‑chance scoring. Lean score: Georgia ninety-ish, Florida A&M mid‑60s.
