The NC State Wolfpack (19-5) are back in the Top 25 for the first time since 2019 and now the tough task begins to stay there as they visit #8 Virginia (17-4) on Tuesday. The Cavaliers are 10-1 at home on the season, but both teams are hot with NC State winning 8 of 9 and UVA 7 of their last 8.

Before Betting on NC State vs Virginia

NC State has won four in a row, pushing the pace on offense with 72+ points in each of those victories and 85+ in two of them. That represents a very big style clash on Tuesday night, as Virginia has the #10 defense in the country giving up just 60.9 ppg.

Obviously this meeting is huge for both teams, as Virginia is one back in the win column (9-3) from 1st place Clemson in the ACC while NC State is right there too at 9-4. The Wolfpack start a three game road trip here which could make or break their conference title hopes while UVA might get caught looking ahead a bit here as they welcome Duke to Charlottesville on Saturday.

NC State vs Virginia Prediction & Pick

This game really comes down to which team’s style takes over. NC State boasts the #1 offense in the ACC (79.6) as Terquavion Smith (18.5 ppg) leads four players that average over 12 ppg. Virginia has the best defense in the conference though.

The Wolfpack have won three of the last four in this head to head series, and with that record and this offense the +7.5 is just too many points.

Pick: NC State +7.5
