Vegas odds for 9/7 against the Turds

Danny Sheridan said it many years ago. Mid 80's when he had Hurricanes rated as the 6th best NFL team either division>>>" They show up knowing their going to beat you. Your team knows their going to beat you, and the worst part is The Hurricanes know that your team knows their going to beat you".. Haven't felt this way in over a dozen years...It's an even match..Our strenght against theirs..Offense against Defense..
 
Completely disagree that under is more likely a loss. I can easily see us winning something like 24-14 or 24-20....both of those scenarios come in under.

They have a good D. Us scoring 21-24 wouldn't be a bad result. The game will be won or lost with how many turnover we have or whether or not UF gets a special teams/defensive score. I don't see their offense being able to put up more than 17 without the help of turnovers and/or special teams play.

I definitely would take the under. UF offense is bad and our offense has not been good at all with good defenses.
 
Under is a loss IMO.

Not if we score over 20. UF has a losing record under Muschamp when the opponent scores 21 or more.

Could see it being under and us winning a 24-21, 24-23 type of game.

a result in the teens probably means a UF win.

Either way, I like the under.
 
Spread is -3. That's where it figured to be...-3 or -3.5.

I'd advise to disregard that so-called opening number on sites like VegasInsider.com. They listed the -2 this afternoon. Every week on various sites I see the numbers from that column touted as the opening number but it's mostly an approximation. It's the "send" number from Las Vegas Sports Consultants but these days few -- if any -- sportsbooks actually hang that number. There's no indication the -2 was actually bettable. Years ago Harrah's actually threw up that send number on every game but they were quickly buried so unfortunately it didn't last long.

Click on the individual sportsbooks on VegasInsider and you can see where the number actually opened. For example, Johnny Avello, the race and sportsbook manager at Wynn, opened the game -3. Avello is notorious for being short on road favorites. He is aggressive and puts up the numbers early. Whenever my friends and I wanted to bet road favorites in football or basketball we'd always pounce on the first number Avello put up, previously when he ran Bally's and later at Wynn. You could go months without getting a bad number. He'd either be low on the road favorites or exactly on the number, but never higher. If Avello didn't use -2 on Florida then I doubt anyone else did, other than perhaps one or two smaller online books. Last season a couple of them booked the send number at very low limits in the early going. Then they move "on air" once the major joints establish a number.

I don't bet on what I can't control. But anyone who thinks any college team in the modern era would win any games in any division in the NFL has a ***** loose.

The raiders would stomp a mudhole into Alabama if you took the best players from their last 2 championship teams and made 1 team.

Under is a loss IMO. We need to play our game. We need to come out and hit them in the mouth, let them know we are Miami. Remember that ****.

And this is why I like Coley. I get the impression this **** has the pedal to metal mentality and will attack UF all game.

Coley is going to test the UF defense.

I trust he will use our playmakers to create mismatches, and exploit their weaknesses.

Working under Jimbo and studying UF the past few years will pay dividends in my opinion.
