The No. 16 NC State Wolfpack host the Texas Tech Red Raiders in Week 3 at Carter-Finley Stadium in Raleigh, North Carolina. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. ET and the game will air on ESPN2. The Wolfpack will get their toughest test of the season with a great shot at proving they're worthy of their top-20 ranking.
NC State (2-0, 0-0 ACC) barely survived a battle with the East Carolina Pirates in Week 1, but Devin Leary threw four touchdowns against an overmatched Charleston Southern team in a 55-3 win. Texas Tech (2-0, 0-0 Big 12) lost its starting quarterback Tyler Shough during the season opener, but Donovan Smith threw for 350 yards in a 33-30 overtime win over the Houston Cougars last weekend, though he turned the ball over three times.
NC State is a 10.5-point favorite at DraftKings Sportsbook, and -365 on the moneyline. That makes Texas Tech a +300 moneyline underdog, with the point total set at 56.
