Why Bet on Florida State

The Seminoles went 10-3 SU and 8-5 ATS last season, but lost elite defensive back Jalen Ramsey and starting quarterback Everett Golson. Making matters worse is the fact that head coach Jimbo Fisher also likely doesn’t have much confidence in injured former starter Sean Maguire, leaving redshirt freshman Deondre Francois as the team’s likely starter this coming season. The Seminoles do have one of the most talented players in the country in Heisman Trophy contending running back Dalvin Cook, but have to find a playmaker at the wide receiver position and have concerns at linebacker. Florida State went 5-3 ATS at home in 2015 and 1-0 ATS as an underdog.

Why Bet on Clemson

Thanks to the return of elusive, dual-threat signal-caller Deshaun Watson and underrated running back Wayne Gallman, the national championship runner-up Clemson Tigers look like a strong candidate o return to the College Football Playoffs in 2016. The Tigers went 9-0 in conference play last season en route to a 14-1 finish whose only loss came in the national championship game. The Tigers went 3-3 ATS on the road and just 6-7 ATS as a favorite. Nevertheless, the Tigers are the better and more experienced team in all three phases of the game and have shown they can win games in even the most pressure-packed situations wit Watson under center. Back the Tigers to cover the NCAA football betting line in this one!
