Week 1 is here, and my card feels like a mix of puzzle pieces and gut checks. Let's just say the board has a little bit of everything: live 'dogs, sneaky unders and one favorite, which I almost never back but couldn't ignore.
Heads up, you'll see Florida State catching double digits at home against Alabama. The surface-level stats scream stay away, but sometimes the story behind the numbers matters more than the numbers themselves.
Then there's a matchup where I'm leaning on tempo and chemistry, or really, the lack of it. Fast pace doesn't always mean points, and Week 1 installs can be messy.
