SOUTH ALABAMA +4.5 Butler

USA certainly has a homecourt edge here. The game is in Birmingham-Jefferson Convention Complex. That's as in Birmingham, Alabama. They played a non-conference schedule to prepare them for just this game. The Jaguars, who lost in the Sun Belt Conference tournament semifinals, beat tournament teams Mississippi State, San Diego and Western Kentucky. And South Alabama lost on the road by just three points each to Vanderbilt and Mississippi.

Tested and with not exactly a neutral game, they pull this one out.
