Why Marquette is a Good Bet Versus NC State

The biggest issue NCAA Tournament prognosticators had with assigning Marquette an Elite 8 or Final Four position was Tyler Kolek’s injury.

So far, so good for Kolek. Kolek had a terrible Big East Tournament Championship game, scoring just 7 points against the UConn Huskies. But versus Kolek dropped 21. Then against Western Kentucky, Kolek scored 18. As Tyler goes, so go the Golden Eagles.

NC State Wolfpack vs Marquette Golden Eagles Final Betting Analysis

NC State has looked good during the tournament, but Big 12 squads, outside of Iowa State and Houston, have underperformed. So the win over Texas Tech doesn’t impress too much.

Also, beating Oakland was nice, but Oakland isn’t a Power 5 team. So we can’t put too much emphasis on what NC State has done in this tournament.

Marquette is firing on all cylinders. The Golden Eagles’ top player, Tyler Kolek, is rounding into his best form after suffering an injury late in the season. Marquette won’t allow NC State to get anything going inside to DJ Burns. The Golden Eagles cover.
