NC State at Clemson picks and predictions

Prediction

Clemson 20, NC State 17

Money line

PASS.

Clemson (-290) money line is too expensive, especially when NC State should make this a close game.

Against the spread

BET NC STATE +6.5 (+100).

NC State is 6-0 ATS after failing to cover the spread in its previous game. Expect the Wolfpack to also be extra focused for this matchup due to the historic nature of it and their lack of recent success at Clemson Memorial Stadium.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 43.5 (-112).

The Under is 6-1 in the last 7 head-to-head meetings in Clemson. The playoff ramifications of this matchup should also help the Under hit as both defenses will be extra focused. NC State’s defense allows just 11.8 points per game and should be able to limit Uiagalelei’s productivity.

First look: NC State at Clemson odds and lines

Looking at Saturday’s NC State at Clemson college football odds, lines and trends. Here’s what you need to know.

The NC State Wolfpack (4-0, 0-0 ACC) and Clemson Tigers (4-0, 2-0) meet Saturday at Memorial Stadium in Clemson, S.C. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET (ABC). Below, we look at NC State vs. Clemson odds from Tipico Sportsbook; check back for all our college football picks and predictions.

The Wolfpack have recorded 3 consecutive home victories since their near-loss at East Carolina in the opener Sept. 3. NC State is 2-2 ATS overall, and it was nearly 3-1 ATS, but UConn backdoored the Wolfpack late in the 4th quarter Saturday night.

The Tigers had a down year by their standards last season, especially on offense, but QB D.J. Uiagalelei has Clemson putting up 43.8 PPG this year, 13th in the land. Clemson is coming off an emotional 51-45 overtime win at Wake Forest, but it has failed to cover in each of its last 3 outings.

NC State is No. 10 and Clemson is No. 5 in the AFCA Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY Sports.

NC State at Wake Forest odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s NC State at Wake Forest odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The No. 19 NC State Wolfpack (7-2, 4-1) visit the No. 13 Wake Forest Demon Deacons (8-1, 5-0) Saturday at Truist Field in Winston-Salem, N.C. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the NC State vs. Wake Forest odds and lines, and make our expert college football picks, predictions and bets.

The Wolfpack take the trip from the Triangle to the Triad looking to ascend to the top of the Atlantic Division standings with a win. NC State doubled up Florida State in Tallahassee last week, covering for the second straight game.

The Demon Deacons lost a non-conference game at North Carolina in a scheduling quirk, so they remain unbeaten in the ACC standings. Wake can inch closer to an Atlantic Division title with a win here.

NC State at Wake Forest odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Wake Forest 39, NC State 33

Money line

WAKE FOREST (-130) is worth a look at home as they look to rebound after last week’s wild loss in Chapel Hill. NC State (+105) won last season’s meeting in Raleigh, 45-42, and this one could shape up as another big offensive showdown.

Against the spread

The lean is to WAKE FOREST -2.5 (-107), although there is always doubt with a team that has been playing terrible defense like the Demon Deacons. Wake has allowed 34 or more points in four of the past five games, including 56 or more in two of the previous three.

NC State +2.5 (-115) has posted a dismal 5-12 ATS mark in the previous 17 games on the road while going 3-8 ATS in the previous 11 as a road underdog.

Over/Under

The OVER 64.5 (-115) is the play in Wake games lately. The Over has connected in four of the past five games overall for the Deacs. QB Sam Hartman and Wake have posted 508.8 total yards per game to rank sixth in the country, while ranking second overall with 44.7 PPG.

The defense has been gashed for 435.9 total yards per game, checking in 105th, and Wake is particularly poor trying to stop the run. The Wolfpack D has been strong, but they allow 220.9 pass yards per outing, and Hartman will be able to take advantage of their back end.
