NC State was able to pull out a victory against the Pirates last weekend and the line is moving in Virigina’s favor. The Cavaliers had an impressive showing against Coastal Carolina with Chandler Morris doing it through the air and on the ground. The Cavaliers have a defense to disrupt CJ Bailey as NC State's offensive line showed its vulnerability last weekend. The Wolfpack have also lost three of its last four games against conference opponents at Carter-Finley Stadium as well.

Virginia had one of the more impressive victories last week by routing Coastal Carolina 48 to 7. The blowout featured the defense shutting down former ACC and Big Ten quarterback MJ Morris. Offensively Chandler Morris showed how valuable he is as a sixth year senior at quarterback. Still, NC State has the advantage of having last week off and I expect their to be cleaner execution in both halves than what we saw against East Carolina. Take NC State on the small number.
