The line is set at 24.5 vs Temple

Agree. We hang 60 on Bethune with the old clock rules.

Regardless of the end score, if you go look at the drive chart in the first half it's crazy efficient. The fumble at the 1 foot line is the only mistake, and if Colby scores there I would argue Miami played a perfect half of football

1st Half
Miami

1 - TD 4:14
2 - TD 5:16
3 - TD 2:47
4 - TD 2:10
5 - Fumble at the 1 yard line 3:56
6 - TD 0:35

Bethune
1 - Punt 3:39 (18 yards)
2 - Punt 2:07 (18 yards)
3 - Punt 2:13 (-8 yards)
4 - Punt 2:15 (-9 yards)
5 - Punt 0:21 (8 yards)

Even in the second half it's not bad.

2nd Half
Miami

1 - TD 6:55
2 - Punt 3:28
3 - TD 4:22
4 - End of Game 1:19

Bethune
1 - Fumble 3:24 (26 yards)
2 - Punt 2:12 (-2 yards)
3 - Punt 1:25 (2 yards)
4 - TD 5:17 (75 yards)

You look at all that in totality and think the Colby fumble is really the only issue. The backups putting up 14 in the 2nd half with 3 real possessions is unsurprising. Maybe you could have expected 21 out of them if the defense made a stop at the end. But the score really doesn't tell the story of how dominant Miami was (as they should have been).

I don’t want us to be 24.5 point favorites at Temple unless we can stay 24.5 favorites at Temple.
 
Just win (and stay healthy). Enjoy your tailgate fellas!
