What you need to know
Rankings reflect the College Football Playoff top 25 poll
No. 21 Wake Forest: Up until last week, the Deacons had scored at least 31 points in every game and played largely mistake-free football while averaging just under 40 points per game, good for 13th nationally. Then came the disaster against Louisville that included eight turnovers and two pick-sixes thrown by Sam Hartman. But Wake is still 6-2 and has a shot at an important head-to-head win over the Wolfpack.
No. 22 NC State: There's a chance to move up in the division standings with a win against Wake and extend the Pack's home win streak to 16 straight games. Not having Devin Leary in at quarterback has hampered the offense, as expected, scoring nine points in a loss to Syracuse and 22 in a 1-point win over Virginia Tech, and had to come back from 2-TD deficits in its last two home games.
