Liberty vs Mississippi State Final March Madness Betting Analysis
Mississippi State’s got the better resume, but they limp into the NCAA Tournament having lost to Tennessee twice and Auburn once in their final 5 games. They did beat Texas A&M twice, but the Aggies were the worst team in the SEC this season.
The Bulldogs are going to find it difficult to break down Liberty’s defense on Friday. The Flames rank sixth in college hoops in points allowed at 60.8. Opponents only average 41.5% from the field and 32% from three. Liberty’s a legit Sweet 16 contender. They’ll do enough to upset the Bulldogs on the moneyline.
