Not sure if Lawson is going to play but either way like FSU and the +9.5 points here ATS. Douglas has been unbelievable for FSU all season and think he will keep them in the game. If Lawson does not play think UNC will lose straight up but looks like a game time decision today. UNC has poor all year ATS whereas FSU has been great ATS all year. Don't look for the trends to change today.  SCORE  UNC 80 - FSU 78
