I have a couple for now and I may have more tonight...
Pick #1 22 points or more
We have to evaluate the first half a little bit, but both teams (especially FSU) has shown the ability to score at times. Though Boston College has struggled at putting up points overall this season, only averaging about 20 points a game, at home they have been able to produce a little better. Coming off a 28-17 road win over Maryland, Boston College has scored 100 points in 4 home games and 59 points in 4 road games, with a home score difference of 41. FSU averages about 36 points points a game (35.6 officially), but has blown unranked teams out (such as Duke in a 41-16 road win, who beat Boston College) besides Wake Forest, by a combined total of 212-42. FSU's low scoring games came to pretty good teams (Oklahoma, Clemson and Wake Forest).
Defensive note: FSU allows about 17 points a game, ranking 12th on defense nationally. Boston College allows about 25 point a game ranking 52nd nationally.
Still have to see the first quarter, but I like 22 points or more at a glance.
***Update: With FSU up 28-0 at halftime you have to be careful. I don't think it will be 22+ unless Boston College gets motivated to make a comeback or something. FSU probably won't score 22+ alone in the second half, this pick needs some support from Boston College. I personally would stay away if you have a good streak. Good luck whatever you do.
Pick #2 LA Galaxy win (MLS Soccer)
This one will either be an easy pick, or a really frustrating pick depending on what LA decides to do with their gameplan. LA only needs to draw to advance, but it wouldn't surprise me if they tried to score to create a 1 or 2 point cushion. With them at home, and being the most dominant team so far in MLS play, they may be the pick. The Red Bulls go into this game 10-16-8 with a 6 goal difference and 46 points. The Red Bulls have have not looked that great against solid MLS teams on the road. They have done pretty well coming up with draws (for the most part) this year on the road, and that certainly won't be out of the question tonight since LA doesn't have to win. LA goes into this game 19-10-5 with a 20 goal difference and 67 points, coming off a 1-0 road win over the Red Bulls a few days ago. So to conclude, it really just comes down to what LA decides to do. With them at home they may want to put on a show for the home crowd. Good luck whoever you choose.

ReplyDeleteyeah I am beginning to see the light now. cbus's last game was oct 30th. thats alotta rest vs. a team with NO rest. you guys are absolutely right I think. so... wtf pick are you guys making? I am thinkin college fb, 3 players score td's and 22 or more depending on how the first half goes. what do you guys think?
ReplyDeleteat first glance I liked 3 players score, but I havent had a chance to look at it more in depth. I actually like PAOK in early soccer and then will probably pick cbus and call it a day unless I lose then ill probably go LA for nighttime soccer
