NC STATE vs Georgia Tech SATURDAY, DEC. 5
2 min readLet the drama that is College Football continue this weekend. Programs all across the nation are finding out that all loses and victories are not created equal. Even in the realm of sports wagering, there are several strata to select from until the tourneys tip off. ATB will be with you all the way to the final game. So let us gain perspective at where we are at and ascertain some of the pitfalls that could ensnare our bankrolls this March.
Meaningful Games Near Ten Points
This situation most aptly describes teams that are or near the elite level against those that are merely above average. Pack a pleasant surprise in 2020, 7-3 SU and vs. 6-4 line after 2-10 spread nosedive in 2019.NCS also “over” 10-4 last 14 since late 2019. GT 7-12-1 vs. spread for Collins since he arrived LY (though did narrowly win and cover vs Wolfpack in 2019).
Jackets also on 12-4 “over” run since early 2019.
Promo Power
Another way to buffer against the unexpected is to invest in an offshore establishment with a stellar reputation in terms of payouts and promotional opportunities. America’s Bookie is just that sportsbook that caters to these requirements
The home team is just 1-6 SU/0-5-2 ATS in this series. NCSt
(+2) fell behind 21-3 at half LY then got within 28-26 4Q but missed a 2 pt conv.
The Wolfpack only beat Cuse 36-29 (-15’) but did finish with 408-257 yd & 27-16 FD edges. GT only led 28-26 at half
LW vs Duke but pulled away & won 56-33 (Pk).
QB Sims threw for 146 and ran for 106. After starting the ssn w/a 3-8 ratio in the F/3, he has an 8-3 ratio in his L/5. GT is -68 ypg and they allow 38 ypg avg.
NCSt has won 3 straight but 5 of their 7 wins have come by a touchdown
or less while all 5 of GT’s losses have come by 17 pts or more. NCSt has covered 3 straight as home
chalk while GT is 0-5 ATS coming off a SU win so we will call for the home
Vegas Line: NC State (-7.0) O/U (60)
Prediction: NC State 38- 24
