Pittsburgh vs. Wake Forest Prediction and Pick

Our Matt De Saro broke this game down on BetSided earlier this week and is not deterred by the high total, actually playing the over.

"So, what can we expect from this game? A lot of points in my guess. These are two of the highest-scoring offenses in the nation and top five in PPG. Both teams have top-10 quarterbacks with Pickett a likely first-round talent. 

Pitt has issues defending the pass and this makes it a risky favorite here. I normally wouldn’t go over a total this high but all signs point towards the highest-scoring game of the weekend."

Pick: OVER 71.5

As well, I played Pitt early in the week and gave out my reasoning on Monday's Bet & Breakfast Podcast.
