    Why did Florida State open -8 vs. Florida?
    I don't get it. Rivalry game, both teams 10-1, Gators have played the much tougher schedule....

    Line made zero sense. Granted it's down to 7 now, but it probably should've been about 5.5 in the first place. I'd say the line is trying to tell you something, but college football lines have been bat-shit crazy all year, so this is probably another instance.

      Just really surprised that the No. 4 team in the nation is getting more than a TD just because they're on the road. These lines are usually in the 3-5 range either way.

        because the SEC is majorly over-rated... Florida has sucked something awful ever since the UGA game... they have more turnovers than offensive TDs... 8 turnovers and 4 TDs... keep in mind that included games against Missouri, ULa La and Jacksonville St...

            They are # 4 in BCS because of the computer strenght of schedule, they are 3-1 against the top 10 . this will be there 5th top 10 game, so as bad as there offense looks look to the human eye the computers see it differently in which it probably should. BTW Fsu #5 is actually head of them in the coaches poll

              Arguably the worst line of the season in a year full of bad ones.

                That was probably my easiest bet of the year. Too bad I went "normal" on it.

                    ACC showed their true colors. League is a joke. Can't wait to fade them come bowl season.
