10* (NIT) LIPSCOMB/NC STATE BEATDOWN SPECIAL (54-34 +$15K CBB)
(NCAAB) Lipscomb vs. North Carolina State,
Point Spread: -3.50 | -104.00 North Carolina State (Home)
Result: Loss
Selection: The set-up: NC State hosts Lipscomb in the NIT quarterfinals. The Wolfpack got back Harvard to advance, led by CJ Bryce with 16 points and seven boards. The Bison advanced with an 86-69 rout of North Carolina-Greensboro Spartans, led by 24 points from Rob Marberry.

The pick: Take it for what you will though, but Lipscomb is just 2-6 ATS in its last eight following a SU win, while the NC State Wolfpack are 6-2 ATS in their last eight following a SU win and 7-3 ATS in their last ten at home. I'm banking on NC State's defense and the home town crowd to prove to be too much for the Bison tonight.
