Hurricanes of Miami -5 over Georgia Tech

Question

To be honest this line is a joke and I believe it's this low because of Morris's "injury"

Miami's defense has improved dramatically from last year while Vad Lee hasn't improved his option game at all. The guy still struggles making his reads.

GT made Logan Thomas, who has 0 weapons on offense, look competent. Morris will eat this GT defense alive. Duke Johnson also got his team leader jersey taken away from him after his fumbles against USF so look for him to have a monster game as well.

GT has looked awful against the 2 competent teams they have played and now they have to go to Miami and play a hungry Hurricane team.

Al Golden has this team motivated and they will not be looking ahead or taking this GT team lightly.

What is the evidence of the improvement of Miami&#x27;s defense?

BLangsett · Answer

Is the question above serious? Miami went from like 110th in total defense last year to I believe currently ranked 8th. Thats the evidence. Statistics. GT has been AWFUL against Miami in Miami.

Ga Tech will move the ball on that D.  plus the points or no play.GL

gridironguy · Answer

FYI the UNC game was played in a wet field, rain coming down most of game, that hurts the option more than anything. on a dry field they can move it on most teams. Va Tech D for real i've said this since July and they shut down Bama. Mia D not as good as Ga Tech

Sports_Gaming · Answer

I agree Looks like a solid play.

HurricaneHauk90 · Answer

On that D? I hope you realize that last year Miami&#x27;s defense was the worst in school history and Miami still beat GT @GT. GT has been shutdown by Miami the last two times before last year. Golden knows how to coach against the option from his years at Temple.Does the line smell fishy? Yes but Miami is on the hunt right now. Looking at their schedule they can easily be undefeated going into that FSU game

MrRedemption · Answer

I&#x27;m loaded up on Miami game and 1st half. From an x&#x27;s and o&#x27;s viewpoint, it&#x27;s all Miami. Vlad Lee has been exposed at the typical can&#x27;t throw his way out of a paper bag option QB. It takes an athletic D to shut down an option and only an idiot would deny the Canes D being very athletic.&#xD;&#xA;When an offense is made one dimensional, it&#x27;s much easier for the D. The real question is can the GT D slow down the juggernaut Miami offense?

BandosWB · Answer

With both starting safeties out for GT....

ceveche88 · Answer

gat tech is NOT a joke, that being said the canes traditionally own the jackets, I gotta feeling you sweat out your play but win.  Best of luck regardless

Canes

mws · Answer

Wrong.  That&#x27;s not evidence.  No offensive or defensive statistic is meaningful unless you factor in strength of schedule.

baggingup4 · Answer

Dude your nuts^

U asked for evidence he gave u a defensive ranking that has sky rocketed from last year. Miami has as much talent on both sides of the ball as any of the top teams in the ACC(Clemson and FSU). IF you want to fade his pick ..go ahead. Be prepared to be disappointed though. U sound like a dude that is letting hate for a team get in the way of your money. The U is legit! Period!

PradaG5 · Answer

The public is only 80%  on the miami.....typical square bet

onthemound#5 · Answer

Miami is a GOLD MINE if grid nuts likes GTech!!

HurricaneHauk90 · Answer

Actually it is evidence, if you actually watched Miami last year, which I&#x27;m sure you did not you would know Miami even struggled against the worst teams in the nation on defense.Gave up tons of yards to the following teams: Bethune Cookman, BC, Duke,VT, and UVA.Team cost them games last year. I&#x27;ve you&#x27;ve watched them this year which I&#x27;m you haven&#x27;t as well you would see maturity on defense. They are negating big plays, pressuring the QB more, and forcing more turnovers.Last year this defense would have been killed by Florida and their rushing attack, this year they held them to 2.8 YPC.

ticojoe · Answer

I have Miami covering at 91%....

RabidPicks · Answer

I really like Miami as well, especially under a touchdown.  good luck

mws · Answer

That&#x27;s right -- as bad as Florida&#x27;s passing game has been, they do run the ball pretty well.  And Miami did stop their running game this year.  So that definitely supports your argument.

SCROG · Answer

I love Miami as well

rLp · Answer

I can&#x27;t stand that saying.  There is no such thing as a square bet. The favorite covers just as much as a dog, and lower/Mid-level games cover just as much as high profile games.  For every loser you show me in a "square" bet, I will show you a loser in a "sharp" bet.  Was Alabama a square bet last week?  Was Clemson?  NC State?  What about Stanford, ASU or Washington? If you have done the research and you like the line, you bet the game; regardless of what anybody else thinks.  Period.
