The Wolfpack were supposed to be closer to Clemson than the middle of the pack in the ACC. The recent results have shown us otherwise.

Louisville is having a bad season, no other way to slice it. I was not overly optimistic about their prospects this season but thought it would be better than what we have seen.
NC State Wolfpack
It looks like getting whacked by Clemson might have done more damage than originally expected. They lost 41-7 and then lost to Syracuse on the road too. Last week they lost to Wake Forest at home.
Ryan Finley was awful against Clemson, not exactly the difference maker you would expect to see in a potential #1 draft pick.

There is still a great chance for the Wolfpack to win their final three games and cap a solid season. The chance for it to be great is gone though.
Louisville Cardinals
It is still a bit shocking how bad the Cardinals have been on offense this season. The quarterback has been very bad this season and that makes it hard to be good.
Jawon Pass is the aforementioned quarterback. As a senior he might be pretty good but it is obvious he is going to have to put in a lot of work, and the system might change next year too.

The defense has been abysmal this season. They are giving up 42ppg which is double what they are scoring. That kind of ratio makes it tough for them to even be in games.

The Wolfpack should be able to bounce back in this spot. Even if they are not back to the top of their game.

The Wolfpack are not a great team but they are a lot better than Louisville. This should be an easy win for them…if they can get back to form.
There is no reason to think they can’t win this one going away. I am confident they can have this one comfortably in hand by the end of the fourth quarter.
