NC State football's complete 2025 schedule
The ACC officially released NC State’s 2025 football schedule late Monday night. While the next crop of opponents were already known, the Wolfpack now has the complete order of games for the upcoming fall.
Like last season, NC State will have two open weeks during the season. The Pack will have to wait until Week 8 for its first break after it took eight games to reach its first off date this past season.
The Wolfpack will open the season on a Thursday night for the third straight season as East Carolina visits Carter-Finley Stadium. NC State will also welcome Virginia to Raleigh for the first leg of a non-conference home-and-home it has set up with the Cavaliers.
