FSU football vs. UNC Tarheels: Best bets for Saturday afternoon
By Kelvin Hunt
FSU football will make its second trip to the Tarheel state in 2021 when they take on the North Carolina Tarheels Saturday at 3:30 p.m.
The Noles come into the game off their first win of the season with a last-second field goal against Syracuse to avoid an 0-5 start. North Carolina enters the contest with a dominant win over rival Duke with a 3-2 record.
FSU shocked the college football world last season when they upset No. 5 North Carolina in Doak Campbell Stadium. The Noles punches the Tarheels in the mouth early, holding a 31-7 lead at halftime and holding off a ferocious UNC comeback in the second half for the 31-28 win.
North Carolina will enter Saturday’s contest as -17 point betting favorites.
It’s an important game for both teams. FSU will look to continue the momentum of getting their first win of the season and go into their bye-week with back-to-back wins. They have the most winnable game on their schedule left after the bye-week against UMASS.
North Carolina will look to avoid another embarrassing loss against a sub .500 team. They were blown out by Georgia Tech a couple of weeks ago. Let’s look at three of the best bets for the game.
