I like Rice +10 because second-chance scoring gives the Owls a way to stay within single digits against SF Austin.
Rice entered the weekend ranked 11th nationally with 17.3 offensive rebounds per game through three games. The Owls collected 19 against East Texas A&M and scored 15 second-chance points in a 72-71 game.
SFA allowed Abilene Christian 14 offensive rebounds and 16 second-chance points Wednesday in its first Division I game. The Lumberjacks won 76-71.
ACU grabbed 11 of those offensive boards after halftime and outscored SFA 42-41 in the second half.
