Gotta have something for W0. Super small prop. Looking for GT 14+ live. Watch the weather in Hawaii.

Follow On X: https://x.com/PicksOffice A history of the Aviva Stadium, combined with several unique factors of this game, strongly support an under play. The five previous college football games at this stadium have averaged just 48.8 points total. With forecasted weather conditions calling for temperatures in the 50s and wind gusts possibly in excess of 20 mph, scoring could be further stymied outdoors in this venue. These are elements crucial in keeping offenses to a minimum—offensive production, particularly through the air, where the wind could really play havoc with deep throws and accuracy. Florida State enters this game with big defensive advantages, particularly in the secondary. The Seminoles field the nation's top coverage unit in terms of on-target balls allowed, an omen for Georgia Tech's passing game. With returning experience at defender in Shyheim Brown and DJ Lundy, not mentioning highly recruited Marvin Jones Jr. going to the edge, Florida State's defense should be able to control the tempo and keep it away from some explosive plays for the Yellow Jackets. Moreover, the Seminoles should miss their offensive coordinator, Alex Atkins, who will not be available for this game due to a suspension. Such disruption might mean a less potent offense that should be expected from Florida State in this game against a Georgia Tech defense looking to take advantage of every miscue.

Transfer from Bama - will assume RB1 duties behind what should be one of the better offensive lines in the country. New QB with DJU as well - signs have been that FSU will be run heavy this season. Will have a huge advantage vs GT in the trenches - GT allowed the fourth most rush yards in the country last season. Williams profiles as a 5+ YPC rusher in the ACC after doing so in his 200+ career carries in the ACC. Should see 15+ carries in a positive gamescript, but also a threat to break a big one. I have him close to 80 yards. Would play to o73.5.

First football bet of the year. Starting off with a win.

From the Week Zero Mismatches piece, Florida State complete domination expected OL to the GT defensive front. Project number Florida State -18.5 https://www.actionnetwork.com/ncaaf/college-football-picks-predictions-matchup-advantages-florida-state-vs-georgia-tech-smu-vs-nevada-week-0?utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=Social&utm_campaign=CollinWilson

Seven Yellowjacket starters return from an offense that finished 12th in explosiveness. Florida State is replacing four box defenders and their starting nickelback, so GT’s RPO/misdirection run game will have a chance to pop big plays. This is the sixth game in Dublin since 2012, historically scoring is slow out of the gate, averaging just 8.5 total points in the first quarter. Three of the five games still went over despite the sluggish starts.
