Florida State beat Northern Kentucky in the opener, 74-62. The Seminoles were fifth in the 15-team ACC last season in points scored, while the defense was 14th in points surrendered, 13th in field goal shooting allowed, and 14th at defending the 3-pointer. Florida State is on a 16-7 run OVER the total. Rice has a reliable ball-handler and shot-creator in Trae Broadnax (15 ppg) and center Caden Powell (17 ppg) can score up front. They topped Florida International in the opener, 77-70. But this team is projected to finish last in the American Conference. Last season, the defense was 11th in the 14-team conference in points surrendered (75.7 per game) and 13th in shooting allowed (.451). Play Florida State/Rice OVER the total.
