FSU-SyracuseThe Game: The second part of a two-year agreement. Last season the Noles needed two touchdown runs from Leon Washington to eek out a 17-13 win at the Carrier Dome. Syracuse now enters with a new coach and a new scheme.
The Players: All eyes will be on the FSU running game, which has struglged to this point. Luckily quarterback Drew Weatherford has stepped up to the challenge and improved his passing weekly.
The Numbers: FSU going for their only second 4-0 start in the last five years.
The Line: Anywhere from FSU -21 to -21.5
The Forecast: I don't expect Syracuse to do too much on offense, but I do believe their defense will give FSU some troubles for at least the first half.
The Pick: Florida State 27, Syracuse 3.
