4* Free Week 6 NCAA Betting Prediction: Marshall +6.5
NC State’s passing game struggled in their recent matchup against Old Dominion, and they’re not good ATS. Look it up! NC State are 0-5-1 ATS in their last 6 games.
I don’t anticipate a sudden improvement, which is why I’m favoring Marshall as 6.5-point underdogs.
Some trends I like that point to a Marshall W are, Marshall being 6-3 ATS in their L9 , and the Herd are 9-0 SU in their L9.
Prognostications from my model have this one at 41 total points. Play the UNDER.
We’ve seen the total go UNDER in 5 of North Carolina State’s last 6 games.
