This is an 8* on FLORIDA STATE

Florida State appears to be the class of the ACC this season and can wrap up its second consecutive regular season crown with a win over Notre Dame on Saturday. This should prove not that difficult as the Fighting Irish have lost four games in a row. While three of those were on the road, the last one occurred right here in South Bend and it was by double digits to North Carolina State. Also concerning is that it was the fourth time in the last six games where the Irish gave up at least 80 points. FSU is one of the best offensive teams in the country, not just the best in the ACC. The Seminoles are averaging basically 80 points/game and they just hung 93 on Boston College in a blowout win Wednesday. That’s the same BC team that put up 94 on ND in a recent upset win. While three of the ‘Noles four losses have come on the road, those were all to GOOD teams. Even with senior M.J. Walker listed as questionable, they should be fine considering eight other players are averaging at least 14 minutes per game for one of the deepest teams in all of College Basketball.
