Colby called this one for Virginia first, liking the Cavaliers up front against a Florida State line that hasn’t scared anybody. Sean agreed, pointing to Florida State’s loss to SMU and its beating at Alabama as proof the Seminoles struggle against competent teams. Ryan stood alone on the other side, taking the home dog. Virginia and Florida State kick off Saturday, October 3 at 12:30 PM PT / 3:30 PM ET in Tallahassee, FL, with Virginia laying 2.5 and the total at 51.5. Catch the segment in the episode.

Our Picks
- Ryan Kramer (@KramerCentric): Florida State +2.5
- Sean Green (@SeanTGreen): Virginia -2.5
- Colby Dant (@thecolbyd): Virginia -2.5
Colby’s case for Virginia was about the trenches. He thinks the Cavaliers dominate the line of scrimmage against a Florida State group he says just isn’t good up front right now.
Sean backed him up with the resume. SMU beat Florida State 27-24 in a wild, turnover-filled game and, in Sean’s view, should have won by a lot more. Alabama ran them off the field too. That’s not a team Sean wants to trust laying only 2.5.
Ryan went the other way, calling Florida State a live home dog catching short points, and stuck with it even after Sean’s “Surprising you went against UVA, Ryan.”
