Duke has lost 11 straight in this series to North Carolina State and have lost 20 straight ACC road games. I’m betting things do not get much better for Duke football program here today in Carter-Finley Stadium in Raleigh vs a Tom Obrien coached team that are off a disappointing 34-24 road loss to Wake Forest last week . It must be noted that Wolfpack have proven to be a strong bounce back bet as is evident by a 6-0 ATS record in their last 6 games following a S.U. Loss. The Blue Devils have beaten a couple of cupcakes this season (NC Central & Army), and lost to FCS team Richmond to begin their season. Needless to say Duke is far from a consistent team. The Bottom line: The Blue Devils , are off an emotional loss to Vtech last week in front of their own alumni. Duke played a great game behind top tier QB Thadeus Lewis, and still came up short which I’m sure will now have them in a letdown situation , which in turn will put them at a disadvantage. NC Sate despite of a ugly effort last time out are an explosive team behind the arm of QB Russel Wilson who has thrown for 14 TD passes this season. I expect he and his offense rip apart a Duke D, that have allowed average of 366 YPG on the year and smashed for 477 yards by a pedestrian Vtch offense last Saturday. Final notes & Key Trends: Wolfpack are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 conference games. Blue Devils are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games as an underdog of 10.5 or greater……Play on North Carolina State – Projected score : NC State 37 Duke 17
