Predictions for Florida State vs. Florida

By Eric Castelton

Last week, despite the injury to star quarterback Jordan Travis, Florida State put on a strong performance against North Alabama. However, they will face a tougher challenge this week against the Florida Gators, especially playing at night in The Swamp.

The Gators, despite missing starter Graham Mertz due to a broken collarbone, still looked strong in the last part of the Missouri game thanks to backup Max Brown.

It’s expected that each team’s run game will play a crucial role in helping their inexperienced quarterbacks find rhythm and success. The Gators appear to have the edge in this area, ranking 50th nationally in Rush Success Rate and 21st in Rush Success Rate allowed. On the other hand, Florida State ranks 93rd in Rush Success Rate and 32nd in Rush Success Rate allowed.

Given this, as well as the tougher schedule faced by the Gators, I’m placing my bet on the Gators in this rivalry game at +6.5, a line I would be comfortable playing down to +5.

My Pick: Florida +6.5

Matchup Analysis: Clemson vs. South Carolina

By Tanner McGrath

The on-field matchup favors Clemson, with their stellar pass rush and secondary being a crucial factor. However, I believe the South Carolina Gamecocks, led by Shane Beamer, have a knack for playing the spoiler towards the end of the season.

If anything, the Gamecocks are getting better, having won three straight games and covered in three of their last four. They’re also coming off a win against Kentucky. Also, under Beamer, the Gamecocks have a 5-3 ATS record in non-conference games.

Given these factors, I’m going with the Gamecocks at +7.5.

My Pick: South Carolina +7.5


Predictions for Colorado State vs. Hawaii

By Mike Calabrese

For Colorado State to achieve bowl eligibility, they need one more win. After winning their last two matches against weak MWC teams, Hawaii seems to be the next in line.

With the emergence of freshman sensation Justin Marshall in the last two weeks and Hawai’i’s struggling defense, I believe CSU is in a strong position to win this game. I’m going with Colorado State at -5.5.

My Pick: Colorado State -5.5
