NC State Football returns home against Richmond as the Wolfpack enters ACC Week 2 as a 30.5-point favorite — but should bettors trust Dave Doeren's team to cover?
James Henderson and Jake McSwain are back with their weekly ACC football betting picks, breaking down the biggest Week 2 spreads and choosing a side in every matchup on the board.
The guys start with NC State vs. Richmond, where James and Jake are split after the Wolfpack's ugly offensive showing at Virginia. Is this the get-right game NC State desperately needs, or is laying more than 30 points asking too much?
From there, they dive into Rutgers-Boston College, Wake Forest-Purdue, UCF-Pitt, Duke-Illinois, California-Syracuse and Tennessee-Georgia Tech.
They also debate potential outright upsets, quarterback advantages and which Week 2 line looks like an overreaction.
