NC State Playing For a Bowl Bid Saturday

The NC State Wolfpack are 5-6 going into their regular season finale against North Carolina. That isn't a horrible year given all of the surprises they have faced, including the season-ending injury for quarterback Grayson McCall. NC State can earn a spot in a bowl game with a win over their in-state rivals this week. But for that to happen, the Wolfpack will need to be better on defense after they have given up 29.5 points per game in their two straight losses to Duke and Georgia Tech.

North Carolina Takes Field After Firing Coach

After losing to Boston College last week, the North Carolina Tar Heels made the decision to part ways with head coach Mack Brown. Brown will coach this game against NC State to end his tenure at Chapel Hill, with the question being how hard the team will play for him in their regular season finale. Which version of the North Carolina defense shows up will likely determine how this game goes, as the Tar Heels had allowed just 16.3 points per game during their three-game winning streak prior to giving up 41 in the loss to BC.

NC State vs North Carolina Betting Pick

Our top pick for NC State vs North Carolina is for the Tar Heels to cover the spread and win at home to end their regular season. We expect the Heels to come out and play hard for Mack Brown, even if his tenure at the school is set to come to an end. Meanwhile, NC State has struggled to get stops of late and we expect that to continue as their quest to make it to a bowl game falls short.
