The Final Round of the Paradise Jam in the Virgin Islands pits St. Joe's vs. NC State in the third place game. NC State is off a run-and-shoot game vs. Creighton in a game that featured 206 total points scored, unfortunately, 112 of those belonged to Creighton. That game took a lot of energy, and playing for the third night in a row, could spell fatigue for NC State. Under coach Phil Martelli, St. Joe's has always been good. While they don't go up against the ACC that much, over the last 10 years he is 3-1 SU against them, and I think he is catching NC State in a tough spot, coming back for a third straight day off a physically demanding run-and-gun game. Play St. Joe's on the moneyline.
