This is the Wolfpack's 3rd straight bowl game. With a win at the Champs Sports Bowl against West Virginia two years ago and defeating Louisville in the Belk Bowl last year, the Pack are looking for a 3rd bowl win against a tough Vanderbilt team. NC State is 7-5, 4-4 in the ACC. Glennon will need to bring his A game if he wants to help his team pull out a win against a SEC team.
Vanderbilt is 8-4, 5-3 in the SEC. NC State is 1-3 against teams with a winning record, and Vanderbilt is 0-4 against teams with winning record. One has to take into account that Vanderbilt did not play Alabama, Texas AM, nor LSU, but they did defeat Tennessee; who beat NC State at the beginning of the year. They did play Florida, South Carolina and Georgia, so you would think they can handle tough competition better than NC State.
I predict Vanderbilt is going to rely heavily on their running game and NC State will rely heavily on their passing game.
