I wonder why the folks that establish point spreads think our incredible talent will score at will. Occasionally we can't help but run up scores but usually in games versus FCS teams. Of course, when we have a spread like Saturday if I bet we won't cover we will cover and vice versa. My wife said my bets don't have that much influence but she doesn't get the mystery of sports like I do...of course my lucky hat and shirt have control of wins and losses and mine overrides most since my Ibis has a PIPE. But I'm drifting off here...I think the reason we don't blow teams out is because the raging criticism Ara Parseghian (sp?) made when we beat N D in 1985 58 to 7 even though we were down to cheerleaders playing and still scored. I haven't researched scores but based on last year we beat teams yet had mostly very close games.

Friday night I don't think we beat the spread but win. I know, last year I said we'd blow out Indiana and bet the house yet you still won if you took my advice because we beat the spread...sigh!

AI (ChatGPT) Against the Spread Canes data:
The best reliable figure I found is for 2019–2022, where Miami went:
SeasonATS
20196–7
20205–6
20216–6
20222–10
2019–2219–29
That's only 39.6% ATS — quite poor

Is there anything better than being on the precipice of a new season with very high expectations...is there anything better than having that one fan make sure we know we aren't as good as we hope we are. Thanks for your service Broseph!!!!!!!!

They gave you the wrong dosage, didn't they?
 
Think we covered big numbers vs Stanford and Syracuse last year. The two bottom ACC teams played.
