FSU vs North Carolina Predictions
Liam Rooney, D-Tallahassee: UNC 27, FSU 13
“The Seminoles’ year of ill-fated openers continues as Brown picks up its first win over its alma mater and FSU loses its fifth straight game. Hampton took advantage of FSU’s soft defense, again recording over 100 yards rushing to power the Tar Heels to a two-score victory.”
Peter Holland Jr., D-Tallahassee: FSU 20, UNC 16
“UNC’s defense isn’t any worse and FSU should play a clean and well-balanced offense. It should be a low-scoring game, but FSU should be able to win in all three phases.”
JD McCarthy, FSU Wire: UNC 30, FSU 23
“North Carolina and Florida State struggled on the season, but the Tar Heels still managed to have a .500 season as FSU looks for its second win. North Carolina comes into the game with some momentum after scoring 41 points last week against Virginia in a dominating FSU win didn’t do enough for me to predict the defense will keep them close, but it won’t be enough.
