North Carolina (-7) @ Stanford 11:30 pm EST
Pick: North Carolina (-7)
North Carolina will be put to the test tonight at Maples Pavilion versus a Stanford squad riding a 3-1 start. But, they can score, putting up 89.5 points a game. It is early in the season, but they have proven they can move the ball up and down the court. Stanford has looked slow at times, and if North Carolina can dictate the tempo early, they should be able to take this game over.
North Carolina 81 Stanford 65
Penn State (-10) @ Pittsburgh 9:30 pm EST
Pick: Penn State (-10)
This is a semifinal game at the Legends Classic in Brooklyn, NY. Pittsburgh has had a dismal start losing to Montana at home and Navy on the road. Penn State, on the other hand, has fired out of the gates winning their first 4 games by double digits in each win. Behind a combination of Tony Carr’s scoring and impressive defense, Penn State should see a huge win tonight.
Penn State 76 Pittsburgh 53
Cleveland State @ East Carolina (-6) 7:00 pm EST
Pick: East Carolina (-6)
East Carolina welcomes Cleveland State into Minges coliseum for an interesting matchup. Cleveland State has struggled on the offensive side of the court, mustering up only 58 points per game while ECU has been able to clip along at 70 a game. This key number along with home court advantage should see an East Carolina cover tonight.
Cleveland State 58 East Carolina 69
