DonBest.com notes that NC State has provided great spread value since midway in O'Brien's first season in 2007, standing 35-19 vs. the number in the last 54 games on the board.
We’ll find out more on both fronts as the college football season kicks off in rousing fashion this weekend in Atlanta with a pair of games at the Georgia Dome.
The Volunteers are just 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games overall and Volunteers are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 vs. ACC.
