NC State needs a statement game, and this week may be their last chance to do so, especially in the non-conference portion of the schedule. NIU all of a sudden is a potential ranked game, so Louisiana Tech is now the remaining team NC State can use to work out any kinks. This game is less about La Tech and more about what the Wolfpack need to do to get right before Clemson and the rest of the ACC schedule.
We’d LIKE to see the Pack come out like a flamethrower and just torch the Bulldogs, whether that happens is anyone’s guess. As we do every week, our crew put their best guesses to paper to say how they think the game will turn out:
Name | Prediction | Comments |
ESPN Predicto-Bot | 80.3% - 19.7% (W) | |
Alec Lower | 49-10 (W) | A lot of guys have not been the players you know they can be so far. I think this game is where they get it together. |
Essad Malik | 32-17 (W) | The score will not reflect the improvements the team will make. Expect them to look sharper on offense especially, though defense might give up a bit more to make people uneasy. |
Trey Lower | 31-14 (W) | What is this team's mentality going to be this week? This needs to be our version of what Clemson did to App to get everyone's confidence back… I just don't trust the offense enough to make that happen, but the Pack is simply a better team and should win |
Joel Seagle | 27-21 (W) | I think our struggles continue and this one will be close the entire way unless something gets fixed this week. |
Jackson Williford | 42-21 (W) | State looks to iron out some of its issues this week, before giving up a late touchdown and cover. |
So, what do you think will happen this week? Let us know in the comments below, and respond in the poll with your pick!

(Also, the AI cover image today incorporates the fact that this game is “Ag Day” at Carter-Finley, so this felt fitting)
