Liberty vs. Old Dominion Pick
Point Spread Pick for Liberty vs. ODU
- Old Dominion Monarchs -15.5 (4 Units)
The Monarchs have won two of their three games, while the Flames have lost three of their four games. Old Dominion has the edge here because they have one of the best ground games in the country and averages more than seven yards per carry. They are facing a team that is one of the worst in the country at stopping the run and gives up more than six yards per rush, so expect the Monarchs to keep the ball on the ground and pound Liberty’s defense.
Liberty won’t be as successful offensively because they’re not very good offensively, especially on the road. They don’t run the ball as well as the Monarchs, and their passing game hasn’t been very effective. They’ve also been turnover-prone, which will be a problem against a defense that averages two turnovers per game. So expect them to have a hard time keeping up with the Monarchs. Go with Old Dominion to cover the spread.
