Our New Mexico State Aggies vs Liberty Flames Prediction
New Mexico State has one of the worst running games in the country, but has a decent passing game (261.2 yards per game). However, Liberty has been tough against the pass this season (No. 12, 154.2 yards per game allowed). The Flames struggle to stop the run, but I’m not confident the Aggies will have any luck running the ball. I am not sure why Liberty is a 10.5-point favorite in this game; like New Mexico State, they are not a good team. I’d like to say they will not cover, but I can’t say with confidence the Aggies will keep it close. However, Liberty is averaging 17.3 points per game, while New Mexico is averaging 22.2 points per game. The best bet is pretty clear here.
Our Liberty vs. New Mexico State Pick: UNDER 48.5
