Liberty got blown out yesterday by the Owls. Florida Atlantic is in the top-35 in both the offensive and defensive efficiency categories, the Cougars are not. Charleston lost plenty of production from last season and struggled to contain good offensive teams like Duquesne and Vermont. The Flames have an experienced team and are 6th in the country in shooting it effectively. It’s a good bounce back spot against a Cougar defense that isn’t the same defensively as last season.

Friday, Liberty will play their second straight game after losing yesterday by twenty-five points at Florida Atlantic. They will face a Charleston team that has the advantage in rest as they have not played since Sunday. Look for Liberty to weather the storm early and utilize their uncanny team three point shooting to topple Charleston. Take Liberty.

My simulations make this total 141. I'm on the Under as I project Liberty to hold Charleston under 70 points.
