The NC State Wolfpack pulled off a shocking upset in the last game on their schedule, pulling out a hotly contested win over the ranked Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, a victory that constituted the biggest of the year for the Wolfpack. As a reward, NC State (5-4, 2-3 ACC) now faces a stretch of three solid ACC opponents, starting with the Miami Hurricanes (7-2, 3-2 ACC). The 'Canes, despite their two losses, remain in the thick of the playoff hunt but will have to win out to remain in consideration for a top-12 seed. Miami has a good chance to notch a win here when the Wolfpack comes to Coral Gables for a 3:30 p.m. EST kickoff on Saturday.
One of the bigger surprises of NC State's season has been its offensive efficiency. The unit has been excellent in the last month, with quarterback CJ Bailey leading an attack that has scored 34 or more points in three of its last four games. The only game the Wolfpack failed to meet that benchmark was against Notre Dame, an understandably tough opponent. The Hurricanes have largely been solid defensively, but Bailey and the Wolfpack should provide a sneakily tough matchup.
As a team that began the season ranked inside the top five, it is hard to think of this season as anything but a disappointment for Miami. It has only suffered two losses, but they came against Louisville and SMU, two games that certainly should have ended in Hurricanes' wins. In both defeats, quarterback Carson Beck was atrocious, showing that the roster is not able to overcome poor performances from their signal-caller, especially against offensively capable competition. The Wolfpack is not a scary defense, which should allow Beck to play a clean game at home.

NC State vs Miami Prediction and Pick
The Hurricanes are obviously heavy favorites for a reason, but the best pick on the board is not on either side of the money line. Instead, the under looks promising. NC State has struggled to score against high-caliber defenses, a term that certainly describes Miami's unit. The Hurricanes will put up their fair share of points, but not enough to touch the 55.5 mark, allowing the under to cash somewhat easily.
