Liberty vs. New Mexico State prediction, pick:

This matchup may come down to which team can get to 21 points first. Liberty averages 15.5 points per game, while New Mexico State is at 22.2 points per game. Neither offense is going to light up the scoreboard.

The glaring mismatch here is the ground attacks for these teams. Liberty, led by RB Evan Dickens (344 yards, 2 TD), RB Caden Williams (246 yards), and QB Ethan Vasko (173 yards, 3 TD), averages 4.0 yards per carry. New Mexico State is mustering up an egregiously bad 1.9 yards per carry on the year.

Liberty should be able to get enough pop on the ground in this game and open things up enough for Vasko to complete a few timely passes downfield to get the conference victory.

Prediction: Liberty 24, New Mexico State 17

Best Bet: Under 46.5
