In the Virginia game on Tuesday, the Wolfpack were down 34-20 going into the second half. NC State got better on a 30-29 run from there but ended up losing 63-50. Leading team scorer Terquavion Smith posted 19 points with four assists.

ANDREW’S FREE PICK 

I’ll probably stick with NC State here. The Wolfpack need a good bounce-back effort after the loss to Virginia, though. NC State shot an ice-cold 33.3 percent in that one, going 4-of-17 (57.1 percent) from the line with 12 turnovers in a pretty rough outing. That said, the Wolfpack had won eight of nine games before that, posting posting 69 or more points in all nine of them. As for Boston College, they’re feeling pretty good after a big road win over Virginia Tech on Wednesday. I like the Eagles to stay competitive most of the way here, but I don’t think they’ll cover. Should still be a fun one to watch, though.
