COLLEGE BASKETBALL PREDICTIONS

Florida State has won and covered in its last two meetings with Miami. The Seminoles go on the road for a tough game against Miami today. The Hurricanes have a solid defense. However, the FSU offense is showing that it can score on any team. My concern for the Hurricanes is it relies heavily on its defense and when the defense falters, it’s tough for them to overcome that. I think Florida State will be able to find ways to score today and cover on the road. The public betting is backing Florida State on the road as well.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL PREDICTIONS: FLORIDA STATE +3.5
