If the sportsbooks have their way, NC State will be sent home packing Saturday.
The betting public is all over the Wolfpack as big underdogs against Purdue, having received 93 percent of the betting handle on the moneyline at BetMGM Sportsbook ahead of their Final Four clash.
Odds have stayed stationary at +350 throughout despite the public interest, which is likely to end up being quite a liability for DraftKings.
There has also been plenty of interest in NC State +9.5, with 74 percent of the handle coming in on the Wolfpack against the spread.
Despite all of this love for NC State, BetMGM also tells The Post that Zach Edey accounts for their two most bet-on player props: over 13.5 rebounds (-140) and over 25.5 points (-135).
The third-most bet-on player prop for the game is DJ Burns Jr. over 14.5 points (-135).
None of the lines have really moved, though, as NC State comes in at -120 vs. the -110 it was at the opening, a negligible difference considering the 74 percent handle that is on the spread.
Bandwagon fans have been loving watching Burns and his Wolfpack cash as big underdogs.
If you had rolled over $100 throughout the nine-game win streak that NC State is riding, they would be up $666,090.88, according to DraftKings.
NC State won five games just to earn a berth in the tournament and has won four straight games as a No. 11 seed, including Sunday’s win over No. 4 seed Duke in the Elite Eight.

Another bettor has a $500 futures ticket that would payout $90,000 if the Wolfpack win two more games, and the bettor does not intend on cashing that bet out anytime soon.
The winner of NC State vs. Purdue meets the victor from UConn vs. Alabama.
“Never cashing out, never cashing out, never cashing out,” the bettor Christopher Brown said in a video on social media.
