ANDREW’S FREE PICK

I’m going to stick with Pittsburgh. The Panthers made short work of Louisville in their last game, and they’ve been playing pretty well through a tough section of the schedule. Pittsburgh has scored 67 or more points in 16 straight games, so they’ve got their offense working pretty well right now. As for Florida State, they’re just 2-3 over the last five games but they’ve been scoring pretty well themselves. I like the Seminoles to hang around for most of the game here before Pittsburgh powers out the eventual cover.
