The ACC will be well represented in the Elite 8 if Duke advances past Utah. I like N.C. State's chances of joining Notre Dame and Duke in the next stage of the tournament, as they catch a Louisville team that hasn't looked all that convincing. I'll take the Wolfpack getting points.
Here are my keys to the game:
1. Previous History - The Wolfpack have won seven of their last eight, and it all started with a 74-65 upset win at Louisville on Valentines Day. After needing late game heroics against LSU, they Shocked Villanova last weekend. They've been at their best when playing quality opposition, going 7-2 ATS in their last nine against teams versus teams with a winning record.
2. Chris Jones - Louisville suspended their starting guard back in Febrruary, and they never really looked the same since. He averaged over 13 points per game and led the team in assists. He scored 10 points on 9-of-11 shooting the last team these teams played, and he will be missed tonight.
3. X-Factor - The Cardinals are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 vs. Atlantic Coast.
Selection: This is a play on the N.C. State Wolfpack(10*)
