Boston College vs Florida State 2010 College Football Picks: The No. 16 Florida State Seminoles will continue their quest for the ACC Atlantic Division championship when they host the Boston College Eagles Saturday (12:00 PM Eastern, ESPN). The Seminoles are 5-1 on the season and 2-0 in ACC play. The Eagles are struggling at 2-3 overall and 0-2 in the ACC.
BetUS.com lists the Seminoles as 21 1/2-chalk favorites versus BC with a 48 1/2-total.
FSU players should have no problem finding motivation to beat the Eagles as many players have not beaten them in their careers. BC took a 24-10 decision in 2006 and then won 27-17 in 2008.
The Seminoles feature one of the top defenses in the country as they rank in the top 30 in six different categories, including rush defense (12th, 93.83), pass efficiency defense (30th, 113.00), total defense (28th, 315.17), sacks (first, 4.33), tackles for a loss (fifth, 8.67) and scoring (16th, 15.67).
Boston College was a 44-17 loser in its last match on the road against North Carolina State. They failed to cover the 9 1/2-point spread as underdogs, while the total score of 61 sent OVER bettors to the payout window.
Florida State was a 45-17 winner in their most recent outing on the road against Miami. They covered the 5 1/2-point spread as underdogs, while the total score (62) made winners of OVER bettors.
College Football Pick: I generally avoid making picks on teams favored by three touchdowns or more but I'll stick my neck out on this game and take the Noles -21 1/2.
