Game outlook
Vanderbilt is on the road playing NC State at the United Center stadium on Saturday, 12/17/2022 @ 10:30pm EST. NC State -6 was the opening favorite and current line is NC State -5.5.
On Saturday night, the Vanderbilt Commodores face the NC State Wolfpack at the United Center. As the non-conference slate winds down for both teams, winning against a Power 5 opponent is a priority. After losing their last game, the Commodores are only .500 over their last four games, though at least they won their last game. The Wolfpack won by double digits the last time these two teams met. Considering the most recent rematch happened in 2018, it'll be interesting to see how this one differs.
Vanderbilt is looking to bounce back
While the Commodores have enjoyed some nice wins on the season, their lack of consistency is becoming a problem. Last time out, the Commodores couldn't defeat Grambling State, a loss that remains baffling, as does their loss to Southern Miss earlier this season. While wins against Temple and Pitt are nice, they don't move the needle as much as a win over the Wolfpack. As they sit at .500 on the season, the Commodores need a win in this one, which might be their last true test before SEC play begins. As the Commodores have a 2-2 record away from home, and the United Center isn't necessarily a hot spot for NC State fans, the atmosphere shouldn't be too daunting on Saturday.
