Free Week 9 NCAA Football Pick
Syracuse will likely go with DeVito under center after a hit took him out of the game last week. I expect him to have a shaky game against the Seminoles. The difference in the game will be Cam Akers who should have a big game at running back for Florida State.
4* Free NCAA Betting Prediction: Florida State -10.5
Florida State’s poor defense, combined with its explosive offense, will almost ensure a total just north of the predicted 60-point Number. Also, with calls for his job coming from Seminole Nation, Taggart will rally his troops today as FSU covers.
