Liberty Favored to Win Based on Matchup and Strengths in Scoring and Defense

Liberty looks to be the superior team in this matchup; their exceptional scoring rate and their stellar running attack average of 280.6 yards per game provides them with a strong edge against Louisiana Tech's 126th ranking in rush defense. On the other hand, Liberty's defense is robust against the pass, only allowing 233 yards per game along with 16 interceptions. Louisiana Tech's greatest asset is their passing game, yet this could prove ineffective against Liberty. The evidence speaks for itself with Liberty covering the spread in seven of their last nine games compared to Louisiana Tech's eight out of twelve. Liberty is the clear favorite.
