I've debated this all week, but I think this number is just too low not to take. I think the line should be more around 19 or so. FSU has a lot to prove this season, one in which they are in a new position in the ACC...not the clearcut favorite to win the conference.
Carolina on the other hand had a defense that let up around 38 PPG last year at home, while going 0-6. The offense should put some points on the board, the O-line is returning a lot of startings and Durant seems ready to have a breakout season if he can stay injury free. The defense, on the other hand, gets little help from last years pathetic squad and I'm not sure how much of a difference 1 year of experience is going to make. The running game has been awful in the past and 3 of the 4 backs trying to gain the starting spot got injured this summer.
An intangible that makes me hesitate is that the game should be a little more rowdy for the fans as it is a night game and they are unveiling a new 3 million dollar scoreboard. As for the total, I probably won't play it but I would *probably* lean to the over. I just think FSU will put plenty of points on the board, and I think our offense is capable of putting 14-17 points up on the Noles.
In a road game where the total is between 52.5 and 56, FSU is 5-1 ATS since 1992.
in a home game where the total is between 49.5 and 56, UNC is 1-6 ATS since 1992..
Smallish play:
FSU -16 (2 units)
Good luck today everyone
