The Fighting Irish have NCAA Tournament dreams and need this win at home. Their shooters will be torching the baskets in an electric environment in South Bend. Different styles favor the home team in this matchup.

Both teams play at an up-tempo pace. Florida State has a top-20 offense, while Notre Dame's offense ranks 38th and their defense ranks 116th. The Irish average 13 more points per game at home than on the road and they're 10-7 to the Over. Florida State is 18-11 Over on the season and the first meeting was 85-84.

Florida State desperately needs this win if it wants to win the ACC title. The Seminoles have the 16th best defense in the country in terms of efficiency and will be motivated after the loss at Clemson. I'm taking Florida State.
