Wolfpack Spotlight

The North Carolina State Wolfpack are coming in on a nice two-game win streak, recently taking down the Florida State Seminoles and covering the spread in the process. The over has been trending on the road for the Wolfpack where it has hit in eight of their last 11 games. It has also hit in seven of their last eight games as underdogs. They’ll sport an offense that ranks 53 in points per game and 16th in passing yards.

Demon Deacons Spotlight

The Wake Forest Demon Deacons are coming off a shootout loss to the North Carolina Tar Heels, snapping their eight-game win streak. The over has been trending for this squad as it has hit in four of their last five games, and four of their last six versus the Atlantic division. That’s no surprise, considering Wake Forest is averaging 33 points per game. Their offense also ranks 11th in passing yards per game and 9th in yards per play.

Final Say

Wake Forest’s offense has been a machine this season, but this could possibly be the best defense that they’ll have faced all season. N.C. State’s defense on the road ranks 21st in points allowed, 3rd in rushing yards allowed, and 15th in yards per play. They only rank 97th against the pass, but N.C. State’s front seven is full of disruptors and has the capabilities of stalling drives. Neither team is forcing or turning the ball over as much, which plays out for longer drives, and less cheap points. Perception has people thinking this will be a shootout, but the Demon Deacons at home rank 52nd in yards per play, while the Wolfpack’s offense on the road ranks 51st in yards per play. Not un-explosive, but not uber-explosive either. Rolling with the total to stay under the threshold.
