UPDATE 1:30 P.M. ET THURSDAY: BetMGM opened this matchup Sunday evening at Notre Dame -7.5, and the line has been painted there ever since.
"Not a ton of movement here," BetMGM senior trader Cameron Drucker said, while noting that there's certainly liability, even minus line movement. "Early action is on Notre Dame, as you would expect. We will definitely be cheering for N.C. State come Saturday."
The total is seeing some movement. BetMGM opened at 50.5, toggled up to 51.5 a couple times early in the week and has been steady at 51 since Tuesday afternoon.
UPDATE 2 P.M. ET MONDAY: Notre Dame was the first FBS team out of the gate in 2023, taking on Navy in a neutral-site game in Dublin, Ireland. The Fighting Irish rumbled to a 42-3 victory as 20.5-point Week 0 favorites.
Then in Week 1, Notre Dame (2-0 SU and ATS) punched out FCS foe Tennessee State 56-3, cashing as a massive 48.5-point favorite.
North Carolina State (1-0 SU/0-1 ATS) wasn't as impressive in its season opener, but got a W nonetheless. The Wolfpack topped UConn 24-14, failing to cover as 14.5-point road favorites.
TwinSpires Sportsbook opened Notre Dame -7.5 and is up to -8. Ticket count is almost 5/1 and money beyond 6/1 on the Fighting Irish.
"It's early, but overwhelming tickets and money on Notre Dame so far. N.C. State will be a big need," TwinSpires director of retail sports Zachary Lucas said.
The total is up a tick to 50 on early two-way play, with 52% of bets and 58% of money on the Over.
Caesars Sports opened this matchup earlier Sunday, and the underdog Wolfpack got hit in a hurry. A few minutes after opening, Notre Dame dropped from -9 to -8, and the number went to Irish -7.5 by Sunday evening, where it remains now.
