Result:
LOSS

This team will turn the corner with Hodge back on board and will be a force throughout the remainder of the ACC season. Julius Hodge is one of the tip top players in the country when he is 100%. He is back in full force for the Wolfpack and that will make a big difference here. Home teams in January as an underdog or pick after 2 or more consecutive wins are just 54-101 (35%) ATS over the last 5 seasons. Also, favorites coming off an upset win as a home underdog facing an opponent off a home win are 82-41 (67%) ATS since 1997. NC State is 13-3 ATS after having lost 2 of their last 3 games over the last 3 seasons. Two star pick on the Wolfpack here.
