I've been waiting for this matchup ever since Liberty torched (no pun intended) High Point to win the Big South. I was hoping that Liberty would be matched with St.Joe's, and I see it as the biggest threat to a #1 since Western Carolina came up just short against Purdue in '96.
Right now I got Texas Tech into the Sweet 16, so even if Liberty doesn't pull off the stunner, it's not going to cost much. Liberty can do it, they are quite loose and resilient bunch IMO. I would definitely put money on a single digit score difference, and I would definitely put a little dough on Liberty winning. Smart money goes with Liberty here, it's the first time in 8 years a 16 seed has a semi-realistic shot at knocking off the 1.
