This is a 10* RED DRAGON on FSU.
We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.
This particular play is based on a few different factors:
As note that Xavier is just 13-16 ATS this year against teams with winning records, while FSU is 7-5 ATS in non-conference games this year and 5-3 ATS after allowing 80 points or more.
The bottom line: Xavier advanced by beating Maryland 76-65 in the first round. The Musketeers have won four of their last five. Florida State would get into the second round with an 86-80 win over Florida Gulf Coast. Xavier actually struggled down the stretch of the regular season, going just 4-7 over its final 11 games. Defense was a major issue, but it looked pretty good against the Terps. Before that victory though, the Musketeers had given up an average of 77.4 PPG over their previous nine games. And that doesn't bode well in facing the Seminoles who average 77.3 PPG and who allow just 70 PPG in all neutral site affairs this season. FLORIDA STATE has failed to cover in three straight, but that ends tonight, lay the points.
