That’s what I wrote about FSU football two months ago when oddsmakers made them nearly a touchdown favorite against Boise State when betting lines opened.
However, the general public and bettors were not feeling the same as that betting line has shifted quite a bit.
The Noles are the more talented team and will be facing a Boise State defense that finished one spot behind them in 2018 according to S&P advanced metrics. However, Boise State has a new defensive coordinator in former linebackers coach Jeff Schmedding.
Of course, the largest problem for FSU was scoring points last season as the averaged just under 22 ppg.
