Troy Trojans vs Florida St. Seminoles prediction, odds and best bet for Nov. 6
Florida State will beat Troy, with a projected score of Florida State 86, Troy 65. The Seminoles’ opening-game paint production and rebounding give them the stronger case against a Troy offense coming off a poor shooting performance. That favors Florida State to win, but neither the supplied spread nor total offers a convincing wager. The official betting recommendation is Pass.
Troy Trojans vs Florida St. Seminoles prediction and best bet
Florida State is the pick because its opener offered more ways to generate offense: interior scoring, rebounding and contributions from multiple scorers. Troy’s first game featured a prolonged scoring collapse. Those performances favor the Seminoles, although one game apiece leaves considerable uncertainty about the size of the gap.
The official betting recommendation is Pass. Florida State -20.5 (-110) requires a substantial winning margin, and the outside forecasts differ sharply on that question. Under 157.5 (-110) has some appeal, but Florida State’s scoring outburst is a meaningful counterweight. Picking the winner is easier than finding value in either market.
