two already this year &#8211; so this 2 TD plus line seems reasonable.<\/p>\n<p>Not one of my favourite plays of the weekend but not terrible.<\/p>\n<h3>NC State<\/h3>\n<p>There was some pub for NC State preseason this year but things haven\u2019t panned out. \u00a0[soliloquy id=&#8221;82219&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p>In the opener against Tennessee they had a chance to get some credibility but they were never really in that game after the first quarter. \u00a0Their win at UConn was forgettable (10-7) and their loss at Miami last week was a heartbreaker &#8211; giving up a 62 yard score with just 19 seconds to go.<\/p>\n<p>FSU is coming to town though and that seems to bring out the best in the Wolfpack.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully that is the case for Mike Glennon. \u00a0The lanky QB has been just average this season. \u00a0He probably cost them the game against Tennessee and if he had been better against Miami they probably would have won.<\/p>\n<p>FSU is clearly the strongest defense he will face and they have the 4th best passing defense in the nation.<\/p>\n<p>I just don\u2019t see how he is going to mount a steady offensive threat to keep his team in the game.<\/p>\n<p>Last year the Seminoles shut out NC State at home. \u00a0This year the Wolfpack have the home field advantage but I fear the result may be very similar as this is definitely a better FSU team.<\/p>\n<p>History has shown us that betting on NC State in this matchup has been a sharp play but I just don\u2019t see it this year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Spread Pick: \u00a0Florida State -14.5<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> O\/U Pick: \u00a0Under<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> Score Prediction: \u00a0Florida State 42 &#8211;
