Look I'm not going to buy into the hype of Miami. I think this line is just really off because of the hype surrounding Miami right now. First off they beat Florida State and Georgia Tech?? Is that all and now we are calling them a potential National Championship team? I want to see them play out of conference first. Virginia Tech has played some tough games out of conference vs. Nebraska and Alabama. They played well in both games. I just personally think the ACC is down so I was not that impressed with victories over FSU and Georgia Tech. The talk has been about how fast Miami's D is bla bla bla.. They are Miami they always have NFL talent and speed, but they have yet to translate that into college football wins. I see this as a defensive game and I always give that to a under dog more so if they are at home that's just a bonus. Look Taylor for Vtech is going to have trouble passing the ball. However, I don't see Miami and Harris doing whatever they want against a stout defense. Miami has relied a lot on their RB tandom Cooper and James to set up the pass, but against Vtech the duo has had 36 carries for just 108 yards.

Miami also falls under an interesting trend that goes back to the 2007 season. Since 2007 teams off a ATS win + under now playing a division game as a favorite are 19-45-1 ATS. Virginia Tech also falls into a trend going back to the 2007 season. Teams off a win + at home for 1 game now playing a divisional opponent as a dog 3-6.5 points are 21-8 ATS.

Lastly don't be surprised if Taylor has a good game. He got plenty of time to pass the ball last week against the Huskers who have a very capable defensive front. With Stephan Virgil back in the starting line up for Vtech int he secondary I give the Hokies a major advantage defending the pass. So much just points to Vtech yet everyone loves Miami. Miami is not the team that the voters love!
