Georgia Tech beating Florida State outright pays a sweet $365 for every $100 bet on the moneyline.
While the odds of this happening are not great, it's still entirely possible as both these teams play in Dublin, Ireland on Saturday.
WHAT’S AT STAKE?
Eight months after getting left out of the College Football Playoff, Florida State begins its quest to repeat as Atlantic Coast Conference champion and land a guaranteed spot in the expanded, 12-team playoff. The Seminoles have won 12 consecutive league games since losing to Clemson on Oct. 15, 2022.
DJ Uiagalelei will make his debut with his third college on Saturday when No. 10 Florida State takes on Georgia Tech at Aviva Stadium in Dublin, Ireland.
“I finally get to use my passport,” quipped Uiagalelei, the former Clemson and Oregon State starting quarterback.
Dual-threat QB Haynes King led the ACC with 27 passing TDs in 2023 for the Yellow Jackets, but he also had a league-leading 16 interceptions.
KEY MATCHUP
Florida State will try to establish the run with senior Lawrance Toafili, Alabama transfer Roydell Williams and an offensive line that boasts 345 collegiate starts. It should be a huge test for the Yellow Jackets and their overhauled defensive staff. Coach Brent Key made several changes on that side of the ball after Tech ranked 131st in the country (out of 133 teams) in run defense last season.
