South Carolina -3.5 over NC State
Should come down to the defensive side of the ball. The Gamecocks have been stellar on this side of the ball defending inside the arc at 34.3% and outside the arc at 23% (home games).
Their ability to stifle the three point shot will come in handy against an NC State club that loves to bomb away. That combined with their ability to turn teams over should be enough to get the money today.
South Carolina 67 NC State 61
Western Michigan -3 over Loyola-Chicago
WMU has simply played the better and tougher early season schedule and have faired very well going 4-1 ATS and 4-1 SU. Playing tougher competition early gets a team prepared much more quickly for the rigors of the road.
They shoot it better from the floor and the line and that allows me to lay the points on the road. Look for a solid road win for the underated WMU club.
