After starting ACC play off on the right note with a 34-24 win at Wake Forest last Thursday night, NC State is set to continue its league schedule at Duke on Saturday afternoon (4 p.m., ESPN2) at Wallace Wade Stadium.

This season, the conference is requiring all teams to provide availability reports ahead of ACC matchups. NC State, after listing 11 players out last week, reported that 12 players will miss this weekend’s game at Duke, while senior wideout Wesley Grimes made his debut on the list, but is expected to play this weekend.

Here’s a look at the Wolfpack’s initial Week 4 availability report.
