NC State enters Week 6 desperate to stop the bleeding after back-to-back losses to Duke and Virginia Tech. The Wolfpack dropped a heartbreaker to the Hokies, 23-21, in their last home game and now face an opportunity to regain confidence in front of their fans before heading into a brutal conference stretch.
This matchup against Campbell couldn’t come at a better time. The Camels are one of the weakest opponents on NC State’s schedule and have struggled mightily against FBS competition. In fact, East Carolina—one of NC State’s in-state rivals—crushed Campbell 56-3 earlier this season.
Expect head coach Dave Doeren’s squad to come out with urgency. QB CJ Bailey has shown flashes of promise, completing 26 of 34 passes for 240 yards last week, but the Wolfpack need to get their ground game rolling again after being forced into a one-dimensional offense. Running backs Hollywood Smothers and Duke Scott should have plenty of room to operate against a Campbell defense that allows over 330 passing yards per game and struggles to pressure the quarterback (just five sacks all season).
Offensively, the Camels rotate between two quarterbacks — Kamden Sixkiller, a traditional passer who’s struggled with pressure, and Mike Chandler II, a versatile athlete who contributes as a passer, rusher, and receiver. Chandler’s mobility could test NC State’s defense early, but the Wolfpack’s front seven should dominate the line of scrimmage.
This game is all about NC State setting the tone early. With fan frustration rising and questions swirling around the program, the Wolfpack need a statement win. Expect Bailey to attack deep early and the defense to generate takeaways against a turnover-prone FCS team.
đź’Ą Prediction: NC State jumps out fast and never looks back.
