Free Betting Pick: Florida State Seminoles +2.5
The Wake Forest Demon Deacons were looking like a sleeper in the ACC, but their last game leaves some major questions for this team, especially on the defensive side of the ball. Florida State is coming off a blowout loss against Clemson as their offense was only able to generate 253 yards of offense, but this a very capable unit. The Seminoles will look to resemble some of the same success that Louisville did as they ran for 225 yards, and they have one of the best RBs in college football with Cam Akers. The Demon Deacons have some questions at the QB position with Jamie Newman leaving the last game with an injury, but it shouldn’t matter as the Seminoles get a win on the road. Final Score Prediction, Florida State Seminoles win and cover ATS 35-31.
