UAB vs. NC State Picks
Point Spread Pick for UAB vs. NC State
- NC State Wolfpack (4 Units)
Both teams picked up a win in their first game, but the Wolfpack have the edge here because they looked impressive offensively in their first game, making over 57 percent of their shots and 48 percent of their threes. They also did a better job at the charity stripe. They rebounded the ball well and grabbed 13 offensive rebounds, so expect them to attack the glass aggressively. They also did a good job of protecting the ball, and won’t give up a lot of easy-scoring chances. The Blazers were one of the worst defensive teams in the country last season, and they faced an overmatched team in their first game, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Wolfpack. Take NC State to cover the spread.
