NC State -17 against Wake Forest
OK, let's get the week started early. Four of Wake's five losses are by 17 or more. Last week they lost to a team comparable to NCST (Syracuse) by 17 at home. This is on the road against a QB looking for a signature game on national TV for pro scouts. Did I mention that Wake has the 115th ranked pass D?
Now Wake can score, which scares me on the back end. However, Wake is averaging 21 points in its losses. Also Wakes strength (24th rushing O) plays right into NCST defensive strength (7th ranked). Like I said, it does give some pause with NCST hving the 129th passing d with this big of a line, but I think NCST will be playing in the 50s on this one.
