00:00I would flip it over to NC State in Texas, which is game number two in Dayton tonight, a 158
00:04.5 total there.
00:05But look at this line as well, Joe.
00:07Minus ones, minus one and a half.
00:08And by the way, depending on which outlet you're actually shopping at, who the favorite actually is.
00:12Some have NC State, some have Texas here, which shows you how close this game's going to be.
00:16Just looking at NC State's offense, like, yeah, it was a down year in the ACC.
00:20But they're top 20 in efficiency in the country on offense.
00:23Then you look at Texas, Joe.
00:24Top 13 in the country on offense.
00:26Hence, we have a total of around 160.
00:28What's that spread line tonight for you, Joe, in NC State, Texas?
00:32Well, I mean, listen, a little bit of a higher total.
00:35But both of these teams averaging, what, 84 points a game?
00:39In fact, I think NC State, 14 of their last 15 games, Donnie, have reached, I think one team has
00:46reached at least 81 or more points.
00:49Which leads me to believe that defense is not high on the priority list for NC State.
00:54But this is all going to come down to who shoots better from the outside.
00:57If North Carolina State, they're going to get their shots, they're going to take them from three.
01:02If they make them, Donnie, if they seem to be on fire, it could be that is all she wrote
01:07for Texas.
01:08But it's a pick-em price.
01:09And I think it's a pick-em price for a reason.
01:11Because Texas has more ways to be able to win this game.
01:16Certainly in the paint.
01:17They love getting to the free throw line.
01:19Which is why, Donnie, how do we not take the over in this spot?
01:23It feels like points from both these teams are likely coming tonight.
