Florida State at Pittsburgh picks and predictions
Prediction
Florida State 38, Pittsburgh 17
Moneyline
Florida State (-2000) should have no problems with their conference rivals on Saturday, but no way should you ever bet $2000 to win $100.
AVOID.
Against the spread
BET PITTSBURGH +21.5 (-110).
The Seminoles are the far superior team, but Pittsburgh has shown an ability to play better at home this season. In their last game at Acrisure Stadium, they beat the No. 14 Louisville Cardinals as a 7-point underdog. I am not saying they are going to win this game, because they aren't, but I like them plus the points at home.
Over/Under
BET OVER 50.5 (-115).
Florida State has scored at least 38 points in each of their last 4 games. They have scored 45 points or more in 3 of their games as well. There is a chance they clear this number on their own because Notre Dame just put up 58 against this Pittsburgh defense.
