Result:
LOSS

This game matches two teams that might have been the most overrated schools in the country heading into this season. Chris Rix fell flat on his face once again for the Seminoles. You'd struggle to find another college quarterback with so much promise who did so little with it. FSU is still a talented football team but they have lost much of their luster recently. They will most likely not be overly motivated in this football game. WVU, on the other hand is thrilled to be here and playing against a quality opponent. FSU is only 1-5 ATS in road games vs. good passing teams with a completion pct. of 58% or better over the last 3 seasons and 1-8 ATS in road games off one or more consecutive unders over the last 3 seasons. Let us not forget that although the Mountaineers struggled some late in the season, they are a very talented football team. One star on WVU plus the big points here.
