Returning production
| App State | NC State | |
|---|---|---|
| Overall | 38% | 60% |
| Passing | -31%* | 93% |
| Rushing | 85% | 102%* |
| Receiving | 58% | 26% |
* Outside 0–100% on purpose — production is PPA-weighted, so a departing player who cost his team yards pushes the share above 100 and a returning group with negative combined output shows below zero.
The read
- The spread has moved from -14 to -12.5 since it opened, toward the away side.
- A total of 56.5 sits on the high side of real college football scores (the median FBS game lands on 54). That places the number; it does not predict the result — overs land almost exactly 50% against closing totals.
