Louisville is coming into this game playing very well to start the season as they have won all 4 of their games and their offense has been on fire in those. They have scored at least 39 points in 3 of their 4 games this year with the only game that they did not score that many in being a road game in Indiana who has played well on defense this season. Louisville is going to be on the road in this game but they are going up against an NC State team that does not have a great defense and they are going to allow some points against this potent Louisville offense. NC State has allowed over 60 points between their last 2 games against FBS opponents, including 21 points allowed against Virginia in their last game. They are going to get burned on defense in this game by a Louisville offense that has been firing on all cylinders, but NC State is also going to score points in this game as well. This is their 2nd conference game of the season but it will be their 1st conference game at home and they are going to put up a fight offensively. NC State has still scored at least 24 points in all 4 of their games as Brennan Armstrong is finding his groove and they are going to move the ball well against this Louisville defense. Louisville has allowed at least 14 points in all 3 of their FBS games and they have also allowed at least 28 points in 2 of those. They are coming off of a game where they just allowed 28 points against Boston College at home and now they are on the road here in a bit of a look ahead spot with Notre Dame on deck. This is a bit of a trap game for Louisville and they could easily fall behind early against this hungry NC State team, but Louisville also has the offense to pick themselves up out of a hole and there is going to be points in this game as a result. Between these two teams, there will be enough points in this game to push it over the total.
