Prediction
Miami is the clear favorite in this game and there is no reason to suggest they won’t win this game. That said, with a spread of nearly three touchdowns, backing Miami to cover for the full game might be too much to ask for. The Hurricanes have been able to start fast in most of their games, while Virginia Tech has struggled to score against better competition.
With this game at home on a Friday night, we expect Miami to start fast behind quarterback Cam Ward and therefore will be backing them to cover the spread in the first quarter.
Final Pick
Miami Hurricanes -6.5 1st Quarter (-122)
