INDIANA vs FLORIDA ST. PREDICTION

These teams met last season on December 3rd when Indiana dominated Florida State by a score of 80-64. Indiana shot lights out in that game and won’t repeat that level of success on the road. Coach Leonard Hamilton doesn’t like to be humiliated on national TV and he is the type of coach that has been waiting for this game since last season. Florida State has more size, length, and depth that will dominate the Hoosiers frontcourt. Indiana is also known for only playing well on their home court and against weak teams. You can expect a soft, over-confident Indiana team to show up to this one only to get handled by the Seminoles who have been preparing for a while. The Bookie is rolling with Florida State to win this one in dominant fashion.
