Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets vs. Florida State Seminoles Betting Preview

The ACC Championship Game is set for Saturday night, and it will be a very surprising and unexpected matchup. The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets will take on the Florida State Seminoles for the right to earn the automatic bid in the NCAA Tournament.

Georgia Tech advanced to the title game because the Virginia Cavaliers were forced to withdraw due to COVID-19 concerns. The Yellow Jackets have won eight straight games, and they are clearly peaking at the right time.

Florida State picked up a 69-66 win over North Carolina in the semifinal games, and the Seminoles look like a team poised to make a deep run in March. This team has been overlooked all season long, but they are one of the best in the country.

The Florida State Seminoles are 4.5-point favorites over the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets in the ACC Championship Game.

Yellow Jackets Explosive on Offense

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets are averaging 75 points per game, and that number has continued to rise in recent weeks. Georgia Tech scored 76 points against Florida State in the first meeting of the year, and they are a tough team to stop.

Senior Moses Wright was named ACC Player of the Year by the AP after leading the team with 17.5 points per game. This is one of the most athletic teams in the ACC, and they have been known to play above the rim at times.

The Yellow Jackets have three other players scoring at least 11 points per game, and this is a team that has some toughness to it. If Georgia Tech can defend on Saturday night, then their offense will do the rest.

Florida State is Deep

The Florida State Seminoles don’t have a true offensive star, but they have a number of scoring options. The Seminoles are scoring just under 80 points per game while holding opponents to less than 70 per game.

M.J. Walker leads the team with 12.9 points per game, and RaiQuan Gray has chipped in with 12.1 points per game. This team is shooting 39 percent from the three-point line, and they have the ability to light up the scoreboard.

Florida State knows that Georgia Tech can score the basketball, but they will try to win this game with their depth.

Seminoles Win ACC Title

Georgia Tech has been on a remarkable run of late, but they earned a gift by not having to play Virginia in the semifinals. The Yellow Jackets can really score the basketball, but keeping up with Florida State is a major concern.

Florida State is one of the deepest teams in the country, and they don’t have any let-up when they start to sub. The Seminoles blew a chance to win the ACC regular-season title, and they aren’t going to let that happen again.

Georgia Tech has played well up to this point, but they are simply overmatched in the ACC Championship Game. Bet the Florida State Seminoles -4.5 as they cruise to victory on Saturday night.
