This is an 8* BLOWOUT on UCF.
As we can ascertain by the spread, the oddsmakers think these teams are pretty evenly matched, but for a number of different reasons I think that UCF brings more to the table here and look for it to pull away down the stretch for the comfortable ATS cover. Despite losing QB Blake Bortles to the NFL draft in the offseason, the Knights would go on to capture a second straight AAC title after overcoming an 0-2 start; QB Justin Holman would finish with 2,661 yards and 20 TD's: "After a 9-3 season, we are very happy to go to the St. Petersburg Bowl," UCF head coach George O'Leary said. "Obviously a bowl game is a great reward for the players, the program and the fan base. We are very anxious to get to St. Petersburg and enjoy the bowl and its festivities. It will be a great experience for our players and fans." Holman was particuarly effective in the conference title game, throwing for 274 yards a TD in the 32-20 win over ECU. UCF has won four in a row and will be hungry to move to double digits in wins. Conversely, NC State has to be excited just to be playing in this game after finishing 7-5, a year removed from finishing 3-9 in 2013. North Carolina State would total 362 yards rushing in a win over Wake Forest and 388 vs. UNC to win its last two games of the year, but it now runs smack dab into Central Florida's third ranked total defense (and note, before the two anamolous run explosions, the Wolfpack averaged just 121.2 in their previous six). And defensively, North Carolina State was pretty brutal overall, it ranked 10th in the 14-team ACC by giving up an average of 373.1 yards per game. I think the writing is on the wall and fully expect a lop-sided rout, play on CENTRAL FLORIDA.
