Parting Thoughts

Listen, it's a tall ask but not impossible. It's telling the betting line is up to +20, and 85 percent of the bets are on Georgia. That's usually a great recipe for the casual bettors to get destroyed(meaning FSU has a strong chance to cover the spread). I'm not predicting FSU to win, but I wouldn't be shocked if they covered the spread. How motivated is Georgia to play in this game? They will have several starters not playing in this game.

Georgia has turned the ball over a bit this year, averaging right over a turnover per game. FSU's defense is solid, and FSU has an excellent punter in Alex Mastramanno. IF FSU can hit some explosive plays on offense and stop the run, catch a break here or there with a turnover, or make a big play on special teams? We've seen crazier things happen, and it's been a long time since we've seen an FSU team not come out and play hard. I suppose we'll find out in less than 24 hours.
