Florida State Seminoles vs. Boston College Eagles Matchup Odds

The Florida State Seminoles and the Boston College Eagles will meet on Thursday at Alumni Stadium and the NCAA football betting game will be televised on ESPN.

Most people are familiar with the term TGIF but the folks in Tallahassee adhere to TGIS (Thank God It’s Saturday).

That’s because their beloved Seminoles are an unprepared 1-5 SU and 0-6 ATS as regular-season weekday favorites since 2006.

The 0-6 ATS log is bad enough but it’s actually harder to fathom the 1-5 SU record. Of course, most of those numbers were under Bobby Bowden but second-year HC Jimbo Fisher also contributed, falling at NC State last year on a Thursday, 28-24, as 4-point chalk.

While we don’t see FSU’s 8th-ranked defense (has held five foes to season-low yards) allowing the outright upset to occur – especially against BC’s popgun attack (No. 101 in the land) – a date with the Hurricanes nine days later precludes us from laying this kind of wood.

Series history also has us eyeing the Eagles (3-0 ATS last three) though HC Frank Spaziani’s recent woes at Alumni Stadium (1-10 ATS last 11 here after starting 5-0 ATS) has us on full alert.

Nonetheless, its TDDOT (Take Double Digits on Thursday) as the points become the play in what should turn out to be a defensive struggle.

The Seminoles are listed as 16-point favorites against the Eagles, and the game's total is sitting at 44.
