Who We Like: Seton Hall is a team I like as a potential Cinderella option. The Pirates have had some really good wins this season and are coming in hot. Seton Hall has won four of its last six while covering the spread in five straight. N.C. State has been an inconsistent team this year, suffering some recent losses to bad teams in the ACC, including Georgia Tech. The Wolfpack are 4-9 against the spread on the road while Seton Hall is 8-7 ATS. I give the edge to the Pirates.
