Miami opens as a big favorite vs. Bethune Cookman

[Trinton Breeze]

Thanks to their win last weekend, the Miami Hurricanes not only opened the season 1-0 but also covered the 2.5-point spread against Notre Dame. Now, heading into Week 2, the Canes are massive favorites against Bethune-Cookman. Miami opened as a 41-point favorite, with the total set at 56.

Bethune-Cookman comes in after a rough outing in Week Zero, losing 42-9 to FIU as 28.5-point underdogs. The Wildcats trailed 28-6 at halftime and gave up 456 total yards of offense.

Total is better value than spread imo

Spreads for these kinds of games are silly

This is not a fair game, why does BC keep doing this? It probably demoralizes their players more than anything.. There is no gain other than a financial one.

$1M does a lot for a small school like that.

Canes 66, Wildcats 0

Canes in a let down spot. BC after getting blown out last week. Zero chance we cover. Canes win 45-13

You answered your own question. How do you think these small programs survive?

I expect the most vanilla of game plans here and a lot of back ups. Doubt we cover.

Mario admittedly doesn’t like to embarrass opponents - especially schools like BCU. That being said, our decisive talent advantage even into the 2nd, 3rd strings and beyond will allow us to cruise.

FIU put 40 on Bethune last week. That should tell you all you need to know. This Saturday Penn State will do the same to FIU.

Didn't watch the game but I looked at the FIU v Bethune box score and how on earth did Bethune only score 9 points but had 350 total yards, averaged 5 yards per play and only had 1 turnover lol

There's something else: It's not just that we are paying Bethune north of a million dollars to come play us. It's also that Bethune may have talent on it that Mario may spot in a game environment that he may want to come play for us that was overlooked in initial recruiting drafts over the past year or two. In a game environment one or two guys may stand out who deserve promotion to Division I and this gives Cristobal a chance not only to look at our guys and work them out, but to look at theirs and offer a transfer through the Portal.

Worked together in Oregon too. Wouldn’t take Miami ATS

Canes will jump out to a sizable lead and spend the 2nd half running the football, killing the clock. I’d take the under.

 

[MiamisMoperiestMopes]

can’t find this game on any mainstream book.

There is no BC program without this game.

Hellcat and Pringle should see a lot of snaps
