The betting public has 52% of their money on the Hokies as home favorites.
NC State comes into this game fresh off a 45-42 season opening win against Wake Forest where their triple threat running game really shined, putting up 248 total yards and 3 touchdowns. They’ll be going up against this Hokies defense ranked sixth among power five programs last year by allowing touchdowns on just 55% of opponents’ red zone trips. Quarterback Bailey Hockman will get the start again after throwing for a TD and running for one against the Demon Deacons last week, but expect those type of offensive numbers to decrease going up against this Virginia Tech’s defense loaded with veterans.
NC State is 1-6 against the spread in their last 7 games and the total has gone over in 4 of the Wolfpack’s last 5 games.
Virginia Tech comes into their season opener with plenty of experience back under new defensive coordinator Justin Hamilton. They’ll be a lot of talent back on offense as well, but a lot of moving parts. This NC State team will bring the pass rush and try to stop the VIrginia Tech revamped rush attack. After the first quarter, Virginia Tech should get into the rhythm of things and then take the lead for the rest of the game.
Virginia Tech is 5-1 against the spread in their last 6 games against an opponent in the ACC and the total has gone under in 4 of the Hokies last 5 games against NC State.
The best opportunity to make money on this NC State vs Virginia Tech game is to buy that half a point and roll with Virginia Tech -6 points at the -120 price.
