The NCAA Tournament is upon us with play-in games already underway, and the ‘Noles opened as -12 point favorites over Florida Gulf Coast.
FSU basketball were good to bettors this season, going 18-8-1 against the spread as favorites. The million dollar question is will the ‘Noles cover the spread in this one?
FGCU isn’t a very efficient team on offense or defense. They’re No. 82 offensively and No. 172 defensively according to Ken Pom. FSU is No. 25 offensively and No. 23 defensively.
This isn’t the same FGCU team that everyone fell in love with a couple of seasons ago, and FSU has one of the most talented teams in the country.
