Here are betting previews and picks for second-round matchups.

(5 ) San Diego State (-5.5) vs. (13) Furman | Total 139

Furman will continue to dance. Despite the fact that San Diego State has a solid defense, the Paladins are heading into this game unafraid and have three legitimate scorers in Bothwell, Slawson, and Pegues. Every bucket will count in this low-scoring contest, and Furman’s ability to let it fly from deep should be the deciding factor for a team that could very well be this year’s Cinderella.

The pick: Furman ML (+210)
