This year’s Final Four features three newcomers and both the teams from the left side of the bracket. San Diego State and Florida Atlantic have never reached this stage of the NCAA Tournament before in either school’s history, and one of them will be advancing to the National Championship game.
The Aztecs have played stellar defense throughout the tournament and knocked off the overall number one seed Alabama along the way. Some would say the Owls got lucky since they didn’t have to face a one or two seed, but they still notched impressive victories against Tennessee and Kansas State.
Let’s dive into my favorite props for this Final Four matchup.

San Diego State vs Florida Atlantic Game Props
1st Half Under 61 Points (-110) • DraftKings Sportsbook
WAGER: 1 Unit
Only one Aztecs game so far this tournament has eclipsed the 61-point mark in the first half. Except for Creighton, the Aztecs have restricted each opponent to fewer than 30 points in the first half of each game in the tournament.
San Diego State will play at a slow pace and use most of the shot clock to find a high-percentage shot.
They are not a three-point shooting team and will look to attack the paint. The Aztecs’ athleticism allows them to shut down their opponents from beyond the arc which usually leads to a low-scoring affair.
This won’t be the most exciting Final Four game, but it will be a battle in the paint.
San Diego State vs Florida Atlantic Team Props
Florida Atlantic: Under 65.5 Points (-115) • DraftKings Sportsbook
WAGER: 1 Unit
No team has scored 65 points against this Aztecs defense in the tournament and I don’t expect the Owls to break that trend. If the Aztecs were able to contain the Alabama and Creighton offense then they should have no trouble shutting down Florida Atlantic.

The game will be played at a slow pace and unless the Owls get hot from beyond the arc, this under should hit comfortably.
San Diego State vs Florida Atlantic Player Props
Darrion Trammell: Over 9.5 points (-130) • DraftKings Sportsbook
WAGER: 1 Unit
Trammell has emerged as the primary scorer for the Aztecs this tournament with Matt Bradley struggling to find his shot. Trammell has scored 10+ in three straight games and has attempted 39 shots in those three games combined.
The Aztecs will look to Trammell once again to provide the offensive spark for this team, and grabbing the Over 9.5 points is a value.
Vladislav Goldin: Over 6.5 Rebounds (-140) • DraftKings Sportsbook
WAGER: 1 Unit
Goldin erupted for 13 rebounds against Kansas State and his size will be a key factor in this game. The Aztecs are one of the best offensive rebounding teams in the nation and the 7’1 center from Russia will be looked upon to contain the second chance opportunities.
Goldin has grabbed at least seven rebounds in three of his last four games and every time he has played at least 20 minutes. He should garner a lot of minutes in this contest to match up against the size that the Aztecs possess.
