Thursday Pick: Florida State @ N.C. State

Chris Thompson is averaging more than 7 YPC this season for the Seminoles

T&C is 4-0 in Thursday Night picks this season! We’ve got a (surprisingly) significant ACC game this week…

The Lines:
Spread: Florida State -3.5 @ N.C. State
Over/Under: 57
The Pick: Florida State -3.5

After suffering an early season loss at Big XII powerhouse Oklahoma, where the Seminoles looked helpless, Florida State has rattled off five straight wins including a dominating performance against in-state rival Miami.

4-2 last weekend on our picks, which is a bit rough. An exciting weekend of college football with the former #1, Alabama going down. The important thing for us is that Michigan State pulled out their third-consecutive victory over in-state rival Michigan. What did we learn around the country?

I’m honestly shocked that ESPN’s College GameDay won’t be in Ann Arbor for theMichigan State @ Michigan game this weekend.

Let’s have a look around the Big Ten this week:

After hitting our Thursday night pick by the skin of our teeth,  T&C took a loss on the Saturday Northwestern pick. Give credit to Minnesota, they played out of their minds to keep it close. Can’t win ‘em all…

› Though we missed out 12 PM game bet, a big Michigan State victory cures all! The Spartans showed they have an arsenal of weapons on offense and a stout defense – #20 nationally against the run. Looking for the best coverage of MSU football? We suggest visiting  The Only Colors.
