Liberty vs NC State Prediction
NC State hasn’t played to the level it’s capable of and has failed to cover 5 of its last 6 games. Liberty has the scoring potential to give NC State a scare. With that said, Liberty has bad recent losses to Bradley and Towson. It’s hard seeing that and then grabbing points on the road against an even better opponent. NC State is better than their results suggest, and you’d think things will come together at some point. This is a potential look ahead spot with Kansas on deck. Still, I trust NC State’s talent. I’ll lay the points against a Liberty side that’s coming off some rough results.
