N.C. State breaks cbd_torvik_game_prediction #17

Description

@aburkard

The URL returns a 501 error. It's possible this affects other endpoints as well. N.C. State is the only team I've noticed this issue with. I'm guessing it has something to do with the dots in the name.

Example output:

cbbdata::cbd_torvik_game_prediction("N.C. State", "North Carolina", date= "20181107", location = "N")
Error in open.connection(con, "rb"): cannot open the connection to 'https://www.cbbdata.com/api/torvik/game/prediction?key=API_KEY_WOULD_BE_HERE&team=N.C.%20State&opp=North%20Carolina&date=20181107&location=N'
