Miami vs. NC State: Picks
The Miami Hurricanes have won two straight games, but quarterback Tyler Van Dyke has struggled as of late. He threw two interceptions and only 163 yards, but expect him to have a bounceback game. Van Dyke should have more success against NC State, so take his over passing yards, as he just returned last week and should now be back in rhythm this week.
NC State's offense runs through Kevin Concepcion, a wide receiver who also can run the ball. Concepcion is a top offensive weapon, and the Wolfpack should be going to him through the air, so take his over on receiving yards. Concepcion is averaging 82.66 receiving yards per game over his last three.
Miami vs. NC State: Head-to-head
The Miami Hurricanes lead the all-time series over the NC State Wolfpack 11-5-1. Miami has won four straight games, with the Wolfpack's last win in the series coming in 2008.
Miami vs. NC State: Prediction
The Miami Hurricanes likely would have been ranked in the top 15 had they not blown their lead against Georgia Tech. Van Dyke should be much better after getting a game under his belt.
Miami and NC State both have solid defenses, which will make this game back-and-forth to the end. Ultimately, the Hurricanes offense will be slightly better to edge out the win.
Prediction: Miami wins by a touchdown.
