North Carolina (9-2) has already clinched its spot within the ACC Championship recreation, however they noticed their six-game win streak snapped final week in a shocking loss to Georgia Tech. With the intention to get some momentum again heading into its matchup in opposition to Clemson, the Tar Heels might want to determine a method to beat rival NC State, who has gained 4 of the final six video games on this matchup.
NC State has had a disappointing season riddled with key accidents, however knocking off the Seventeenth-ranked Tar Heels could be a pleasant method to finish the season.

BRYAN DRISKELL, PUBLISHER
Prediction: North Carolina 35, NC State 21
We’ll discover out this weekend if the loss to Georgia Tech was only a unhealthy day, or if the Tar Heels are buckling beneath the strain of their excessive rating and pending ACC title berth. I am going with it being an anomaly.
NC State has one of many higher defenses within the ACC, however they have been weak to essentially good move assaults, and North Carolina has one of the best move assault the Wolfpack will face this season. Quarterback Drake Maye is enjoying like a Heisman contender, and the Heels will ought to be a bit salty after final week’s loss to Georgia Tech. I anticipate an enormous bounce again recreation for Maye and star wideout Josh Downs, who was held to simply three catches final week.
The Wolfpack offense lacks the firepower to win this recreation for my part. His future is vivid, however I’ve a tough time seeing freshman MJ Morris out-dueling Maye.
Prediction: North Carolina 42, NC State 28
It’s humorous how my love for the Irish sways my votes on these video games however right here we’re once more. ND wants UNC to win as many video games as attainable so strengthen their NY6 resume. They’ve already locked themselves into the ACC title recreation so hopefully they’re nonetheless enjoying for retains throughout this recreation. It helps that the sport is at dwelling and it’s a rivalry recreation. Drake Maye is enjoying very effectively and I feel he’ll proceed. On the finish of the day I don’t assume this recreation might be that shut.
RYAN ROBERTS, RECRUITING DIRECTOR
Prediction: North Carolina 27, NC State 20
I simply can’t get on NC State proper now. I do know that North Carolina is coming off of a really disappointing loss to Georgia Tech however they’re nonetheless a way more reliable group offensively to belief.
Drake Maye and Josh Downs are the distinction on this soccer recreation. NC State has routinely caught across the 20-21 level vary so the primary group to hit the over is the victor on this one.
SHAUN DAVIS, RECRUITING ANALYST
Prediction: North Carolina 42, NC State 28
North Carolina’s disappointing efficiency in opposition to Georgia Tech might have taken among the shine off Drake Maye’s season and his possibilities on the Heisman. Nevertheless, NC State lacks the firepower to deal with the response I anticipate from the Tar Heel offense.

Prediction: North Carolina 36, NC State 24

This is able to have a greater likelihood of being a enjoyable recreation if NC State QB Devin Leary was wholesome, however he’s not. The Wolfpack would possibly nonetheless rating in opposition to the Tar Heels, however not sufficient to beat Drake Maye and Co.
ANDREW MCDONOUGH, IB CONTRIBUTOR
Prediction: North Carolina 31, NC State 21
North Carolina hosts a reeling NC State group coming off a shocking loss to Georgia Tech. The Tar Heels have already clinched a spot within the ACC Championship in opposition to Clemson, however must rebound this weekend to get again momentum heading into that recreation.
The excellent news for North Carolina is that rival NC State has been a shell of itself since dropping QB Devin Leary to a season-ending damage. Since Leary was injured in opposition to Clemson, the Wolfpack have averaged simply 18.3 PPG. They’ve managed to remain above water on the energy of a powerful protection, however North Carolina would be the greatest offense they’ve confronted all season.
The Heels management this one the complete manner and safe a 10-win season on behind a bounce-back efficiency from QB Drake Maye.

Big plans are in the works for the North Carolina Museum of History, currently undergoing a years-long renovation.
The Museum of History at 5 E. Edenton St., directly adjacent to the N.C. Museum of Natural Sciences, is always a worthy visit for families, even in the midst of renovations.
Staff members tell WRAL News 80,000 students visit the museum during each school year. A visit to the museum is not something you can rush; it takes time to appreciate all that the state has lived through.
RaeLana Poteat, the museum’s chief curator, said the popular, 20,000 sq. ft. Story of North Carolina exhibit at the museum transports visitors through time, from Blackbeard the Pirate through the Civil War and beyond.
Every great story, however, needs fresh perspectives.
“This is our flagship exhibit, the Story of North Carolina,” Poteat said. “We, over time, just want to make sure that we are telling a great story of all North Carolinians and coming up with a new exhibit that people will enjoy as much as they’ve enjoyed this one.”
The Story of North Carolina experience on the museum’s first floor will accept visitors through Oct. 7, when the history museum will entirely close to the public. Digital experiences will be provided while the museum is redesigned.
In June, the “Sports Hall of Fame” exhibit on the third floor closed for renovations. Katie Edwards, curator for popular culture at the museum, said that exhibit opened when the building opened in 1993, and not much has changed.
Edwards said North Carolina sports legends like Hall of Famer Buck Leonard, one of the first baseball players in the Negro League, deserve better.
“You know, it’s quite a bit of dated technology, and we’ve run out of space,” Edwards said.
The exhibit’s trophies, banners, jerseys and uniforms were all taken down and will be safely stored until the state’s stars of yesterday are honored in a new way.
“We’re getting our thinking caps together about how we can present these artifacts, and we’re going to preserve these artifacts forever and tell their stories for future audiences,” Edwards said.
Renovations at the Museum of History won’t be completed for two to three years, staff members say.
According to the museum, the project is made possible through funding authorized by the North Carolina General Assembly and Gov. Roy Cooper.
