Alabama Crimson Tide guard Mark Sears is hitting his stride at the right time after an inefficient start to his fifth College Basketball season, and he'll be motivated to keep his college career going with a win against BYU.
In his two tournament games so far — a first-round win over Robert Morris and a second-round win over St. Mary's — Sears has averaged 17.0 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 6.5 assists to 2.0 turnovers while shooting 50.0 percent from inside the arc but just 11.1 percent from three-point range.
The Crimson Tide lead the nation in points per game (90.8) thanks to playing at a lightning-fast pace of 76.0 possessions per game, which is also tops in the country. Head coach Nate Oats' team is also 11th in offensive rating (118.5), and Sears leads the team in scoring with 18.6 points per game.
Sears and company come up against a three-point-happy BYU Cougars team that ranks 23rd in the nation in three-point rate, shooting 47.8 percent of their attempts from beyond the arc. Coach Kevin Young's team also makes those shots at a high volume, ranking 31st with a 37.3 three-point percentage. The Cougars are 26th in points per game (81.2) and rank just behind Alabama in Ortg in 13th (117.8).
Ahead of Alabama's clash with No. 6 seed BYU, let's look at Sears' player props, lines and odds.
