This is a nice bounce back spot for North Carolina State as they’re coming off of a terrible loss to Wofford on Sunday. The Wolf Pack now have a record of 8-2, and no doubt will be looking to step up their play tonight as they welcome in the Volunteers. Trevor Lacey, Ralston Turner, and Anthony Barber all average double figures for NC State. They’re getting the job done on both ends of the floor. This team can put the ball in the basket, and plays solid defense, especially in the paint. The Wolf Pack are a great rebounding team and I expect this to be a shutdown defense in front of the home crowd tonight, especially with the way they’ve been playing.
As much as it’s a bounce back situation for NCST, this is also a letdown spot for Tennessee. The Volunteers are coming off of a huge home victory over 15th ranked Butler Sunday. The high from that win no doubt has regressed and they now must go into a somewhat hostile atmosphere and try and cover as a small underdog. Tenn does a good job protecting the ball. They often have a hard time scoring for long stretches and are unproven on the road. Take North Carolina State.
