A couple weeks after other FBS teams kicked off their season, and a week after most ACC teams did, the Wolfpack finally gets their 2020 season underway by hosting a Wake Forest team that has been a thorn in the side in recent years. After posting dominating victories over the Demon Deacons in each of the 2014, 2015, and 2016 seasons, State has suffered demoralizing losses to Wake in each of the last three seasons, including a blowout loss last year in Winston-Salem.
Will Wake Forest benefit from already having game experience in the 2020 season to extend their streak to four straight over the Wolfpack?
