Florida State vs. NC State Picks, Predictions College Football Week 6: ACC Foes Look to Get on Track

The Florida State Seminoles take on the NC State Wolfpack. Both teams suffered conference losses a week ago.

More than 80% of all wagers on the game total are on Over. Florida State suffered its first loss of the season at home against Wake Forest last week. NC State also suffered a defeat at the hands of Clemson last weekend. The Wolfpack were viewed as a darkhorse pick to win the conference this season.

NC State is a home favorite against Florida State. The consensus is for the home team. DraftKings betting percentages are contrary to the line moves on both the spread and the total. The Over has garnered more than 80% of all bets made on the game total so far.

Florida State vs. NC State is a college football game in Week 6.

Florida State was beaten by Wake Forest last week. The Seminoles gave up 171 rushing yards. NC State has struggled to score against quality competition. They have averaged 111.8 yards rushing per game against FBS opponents. Florida State's secondary is an underrated one. The game is a defensive-minded affair. It's worth betting on the underdogs. There's an extra half-point available at BetMGM.

Neither team has been particularly consistent on offense this season. Florida State has plenty of talent at wide receiver but the offensive line needs to improve. The experienced FSU defensive secondary will presumably have an advantage over the Wolfpack's lackluster receiving corps. Neither team averages an overly fast pace. Florida has one of the slower offenses this year.

Both teams have high first quarter scoring averages. NC State has scored only nine points in the first half against Power 5 competition. Florida State's last two games against smaller opponents were against LSU and Wake Forest.

Florida State and NC State play each other on 10/6/2022 at 3:24 p.m. ET.
