North Carolina A&T vs Liberty Prediction

The North Carolina A&T Aggies have been on the struggle bus lately, and their defense is taking a turn in the wrong direction. NC A&T has also failed to cover its last 4 games. The Liberty Flames have the offense to add to those issues, and their defense won’t make things any easier for the Aggies to score. Also, the Liberty Flames are 7-1 ATS on the season. Only St. Bonaventure has more covers than Liberty this season. If it’s not broken don’t fix it, folks. Give me Liberty in a beatdown.
