Take NC State +14.5 (Pinnacle) over FSU
Basically, Thought this was going to be FSU -7 or so. NCSU has Florida State's number, having beat them two years in a row, 17-7 last year in Raleigh and 27-21 two years ago in Talahassee.
North Carolina State has 3 losses, one at Ohio State in Triple OT (TA Mclendon was 75%) and to Wake Forest and GT (BOTH of these were without Mclendon.
Well, Mclendon is healthy now, as evidence by his 100 yard rushing and 100 yard receiving performance against Virginia Two weeks ago. Mclendon is averaging over 5 yards per carry.
And Rivers is Rivers, completing 72% of his passes with 3318 Yards, 25 TD's and only 6 Ints.
Fsu has it's problems, getting blown out by Clemson Saturday night. Bowden has hinted Rix may be benched this week in favor of Fabian Walker, so this could be interesting.
Prediction
NCSU 30-24
Good Luck
