FSU vs GT Predictions

I'm really wishing I got on it when it was that high.

-14.5 on GT and -10 on FSU would have been a good way to go.

I see this as a 1 score game most of the way but FSU will add one late for eye wash.
31-20 Noles.

I don’t think GT will be ready to win this game. I think FSU is overrated but OL/DL typically travels well and they are very strong on both those fronts. Depth during the season may impact it but for week 1 that DL will collapse the pocket.
 
The d@mn game is played in Ireland.... who know how these teams deal with jet lag, time changes and field conditions etc..

GT might hang tight for a quarter and a half... but noles pull away easily to win in the second half.

This. People have short memories. Travis made that offense go. They needed 3 legit offensive weapons and a system QB to put up ok points. They weren’t some elite offense last season. I could be wrong, but I don’t remember their offense being great any time before that under Norvell either. I think they’ll have to rely on defense most of the season (where they also lost talent) and they’ll end up dropping 4 this season.

On point! They made most of their big plays with Travis' ability to extend and make schoolyard plays. DJU isn't that dynamic.
 
Just an FYI. This game will be played at 5 pm Dublin time and the weather forecast is more like a November game for both of these teams.

If the honeybees had a slightly better D-Line, i'd take them to win outright.

I will be surprised if the GT D line hasn't improved over last years iteration with the new coaches they have. GT also lost their best D lineman last year in game 1 against Louisville, who will be back and starting at DE.

Will it be enough to make a difference against the strong OLine and running game that FSU is going to be desperate to establish? That is the key to the game.

They picked up Gore and Romello Height, but i tend to agree with you that they will have a similar line and results up front.

Props to OP; spot on prediction.

I thought for sure FSU would win, figured they'd be able to run the ball on GTech.

FSU is much worse than I expected.
