5*
(NCAAB) Florida State vs. Tennessee,
Point Spread: 1.50 | -110.00 Tennessee (Home)
Result: Loss
The Tennessee Vols have been a lot better than many were expecting coming into the year given the key pieces that moved on from this group during the off-season. Tennessee has moved into the top 25 on the strength of their 5-0 start with some of their best results coming in double digit wins against Washington and Murray State. Tennessee shares the ball well and puts in the effort on defense, ranking 8th in the nation in assists and 9th in total defense.

We didn't like what Florida State showed in their weak opening loss against Pittsburgh, but the Seminoles have bounced back to win 5 straight. Florida State's best win was their 63-51 true road win over rival Florida and since then the Noles have racked up 4 straight wins at home against mid-majors.
Tennessee has been a pleasant surprise up to this point and we like for the Vols to continue to play well as Tennessee goes on to cover the spread.
