What to Know

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish won both of their matches against the NC State Wolfpack last season (73-65 and 69-57) and are aiming for the same result Tuesday. Notre Dame and NC State will face off in an ACC battle at 7 p.m. ET at PNC Arena. Given that both teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.

The Fighting Irish ended up a good deal behind the Boston College Eagles when they played this past Saturday, losing 84-72. Forward Nate Laszewski did his best for Notre Dame, finishing with 29 points (a whopping 40% of their total) along with seven boards.

Notre Dame is expected to lose this next one by 8.5. Now might not be the best time to take the Fighting Irish against the spread since they've let down bettors for the past two consecutive games.
