Virginia Tech at Florida State

This is a lot of points for Florida State to be laying considering the Seminoles are behind underdog Virginia Tech in the Atlantic Coast Conference standings. This is not the Florida State that upset Alabama in its opener. The Seminoles are only 1-5 SU/ATS against ACC opponents. Florida State doesn't lack talent. The Seminoles have good statistical numbers—they just don't know how to win. Virginia Tech opened 0-3 and then fired its coach, Brent Pry. The Hokies have gone 3-3 since then. They have experience against Florida State quarterback Tommy Castellanos, having defeated Boston College, 42-21, last year when Castellanos was the Eagles' quarterback. Virginia Tech ranks 21st in rushing, and the strength of its defense is stopping the run. Florida State has the 11th-best rush attack in the nation, averaging nearly 227 yards per game. However, that number drops to a much more modest 139 rushing yards during the past five games. Take Virginia Tech.
