NC State finished last season at a disappointing 6-7. It will be a completely new look for NC State this season as they have changed both their offensive, and defensive coordinators. The offense should be explosive as the Wolfpack want to play fast, and QB CJ Bailey should be even better this season. NC State has the core of their skill players back. East Carolina beat NC State in the Military Bowl to end last season, so the Wolfpack should have some extra incentive here. East Carolina has a lot of question marks on defense, and with an experienced QB in CJ Bailey, North Carolina St. may be in for a big afternoon offensively. I don't think E. Carolina will be as good as last season, and the schedule is much tougher. Make the play on NC State.
