Virginia's favored here at home, and the model's got them at 62 percent to win this ACC matchup. The Cavaliers have been playing better football lately in terms of point differential over their last five games, which is pushing them toward the favorite role. But here's the thing, NC State's defense has been stingy in that same stretch, and Vegas actually likes the Wolfpack enough to set this line at just six points. This one figures to be competitive, but Virginia's been trending the right direction and that home field advantage matters.
