Wolfpack 2024 Schedule & Betting Odds
North Carolina State Wolfpack 2024 Season Preview
The NC State Wolfpack enters the 2024 football season looking to build off years of success and potentially compete in the ACC. Head Coach Dave Doeren enters his 12th season at NC State with 81-58 over his tenure.
The offense has found a stable option under center in Grayson McCall, who transferred over from Coastal Carolina after years of success. However, the additions don't stop there. Jordan Waters, an experienced running back from Duke, will now lead the Wolfpack's backfield. Those big additions, along with a veteran offensive line and returning wide receiver Kevin Concepcion, have the offense poised for a big step forward.
The Wolfpack's defense is expected to take a small step back this season after being the club's strength in 2023. They'll return just five starters and will need to rely on some underclassmen to step up as they are being thrust into bigger roles.
Overall, NC State faithful have a team to be excited about in 2024. Their offense has tremendous upside and should give the Wolfpack an opportunity to compete in the ACC. It also helps that they will have the easiest stenghth of scheduel in terms of ACC opponents.
NC State Point Spreads
The Wolfpack were as successful against the spread as they were in overall record last year, with their 66.7% cover rate being very profitable for bettors.
For those unfamiliar, spread bets are a popular way to bet on football teams’ winning or losing margins. Books set a line to represent how much they expect a team to win or lose by. It might look something like this:
- NC State +2 (-110)
- Wake Forest -2 (-110)
The plus sign (+) means that NC State is a two-point underdog: It would “cover” the spread by winning the game or losing by a point. A two-point loss would be a tie and bettors on both sides would get their money back. Wake Forest, as a two-point favorite, would need to win by three or more to cover the spread.
NC State Over/Unders
Over/unders, or totals, are a way to bet on the total scoring by both teams in a game (or, less frequently, just on one team or the other.) For a past NC State game against Wake Forest, the total was set at 52. Since the teams combined for a whopping 97 points in a 45-42 victory by the Wolfpack, over bettors were winners. If you bet the under, you needed the teams to score 51 or fewer between them.
NC State Moneylines
If worrying about margins of victory and combined scoring seem like a hassle, moneyline bets are for you. Moneyline bets are very simple: pick the winning team. Since sportsbooks can’t adjust the number of points a side needs to win by, they adjust the payouts to account for the more probable victor.
In a game where the Wolfpack are underdogs, their odds could be +120. This means a $100 bet would generate $120 in profit with a win. In games where they are favored at -120, a $120 bet would be worth $100 in profit.
NC State Props
Since most prop bets are based on skill position players, we have some known quantities to bet on this season.
Player props are a way to bet on an individual player statistic during the game, and they work like over/unders.
NC State Futures
Futures bets are based on how the team does throughout the whole season, and there’s a variety of them available.
Some examples of these are over/under total wins during the season, odds to win the ACC, odds to win the national title, as well as futures bets on certain players.
