Sagarin Predictor: GT +2 against Miami

We've done a great job taking advantage of the other team's mistakes. Which is a great thing, and not necessarily easy to do.

But if the other team doesn't make mistakes, we'll have a tough time winning.
On the contrary, we made huge mistakes against VT and was able to overcome them. We gave up TWO returns for scores and if you've ever seen the statistics for win percentage for teams that gave up a return TD, it's ridiculously low. In short, a return for a TD is a devastating event for a team to overcome.
 
I don’t dig much deeper into betting lines than looking at what’s in The Score app, and they still don’t show a line for the Miami game. Any guesses what’s up with that? QB uncertainty on both sides?

What uncertainty? We’ve got a good starter and our backup is getting heathy.

I don't know where that app pulls its line but there is a line. GT a slight favorite:

 
If we beat Miami it will be because we just play a good dang game. Miami has linemen that are men. Not sure we can compete. Usually when we win it’s because the other team sucks or plays bad.
Those “men” played like little girls against FSU.

All of VPI’s turnovers leveled things out.
 
Didn't Miami's QB get injured against FSU? Not sure if true or not.

Yeah Van Dyke got put out of the game and it looked like his throwing shoulder so he will be severely limited if he plays. The backups were true freshmen who looked really overwhelmed.

Tenuta time! Throw the kitchen sink at them like Tenuta did to Statham in the Maryland game
 
Do you just post negative öööö to be negative all the time? Miami sucks. I have no clue why you’d think we can’t compete against a team with the same record as us.
He’s saying talent wise we’re inferior so if we win it’s not gonna be an easy win and we still have to play well and they have to keep sucking. He’s right. We’re not consistent. After Pitt and Duke games nobody expected us to öööö the bed against Virginia but here we are. There’s already very little transitive property in ACC and we’re already hot or cold depending on the day.
 
And apparently there’s a bug hitting the team this week, so that’s not going to help our chances.

Maybe it’s not a good idea to go to the coaches show if they got the sniffles.
 
I don't think miami has scored a TD in the last two games - is that right?
 
That’s correct. FGs plus OT 2 pointer vs UVA, one FG vs FSU.

And the game before that they handed 8 turnovers to Duke. That’s not counting another two turnovers on downs. Yikes.
 
If I’m reading correctly, out of their last 26 regulation possessions dating back to the Duke game they have:

14 Punts
4 INTs
4 Fumbles
1 Turnover on Downs
3 FGs
0 TDs

I have been so beaten down by these past few years that I expect them to catch fire and score 7 touchdowns to make up for being inept for the past few games. We just need to score 8.
