    Is this Miami ' s homecoming? That and them losing to two legitimate teams explains the line.

    Duke players might not excel in Miami - Dade County heat like local Hurricanes. Dolphin stadium is hot as a firecracker in the sun, then a thunderstorm rumbles through (typical Florida summer happens daily like clockwork), then the sun comes blazing back, humidity soars to 100%, temperature in the sun 99 degrees, heat index 125+-, and there's your home field advantage. right there.

    You ever spent any time in NC? It gets just as hot there as it does in Florida (I'm in Tampa, family from NC). Especially in the middle of the state.

    This line seems like a steal. I've got Duke ML straight, and then teasing Duke +11 with Texas -6.

    Miami is very good this year. You must like losing money if you bet Duke.

    My bet today is solely based on two things...my hunch that Nebraska is a top 10 caliber team and Kaaya took a major step forward last week. Miami avoids turnovers, they were in the game last week... Duke does not have the athletes Miami has nor does Duke have a running back like Ameer Abdullah who is the second best back in the country behind Todd Gurley.

    Miami wins this by double digits... just watch...

    over seems like the most logical play here.. canes defense is suspect at best, mia fans i respect all tell me the dc is horrid and i def cant argue..kaya seems like he is improving, think if duke packs the box he can make them pay...ppl i respect on both sides of this and both arguments while valid all point to 1 thing, a track meet..

    It's the fishiest line of the college football season so far.

    This is what happen when you think too much. Just take the better team period.

    What convinced you that NB is a top 10 team? The big victory over 2-3 Fresno State or the last second prayer victory over McNeese State? Duke has some nice players that are on the NFL draft watch. Miami should have overall better talent but can they be coached up???

    Eye test...McNeese game was a complete fluke. Nebraska, was going in for the a score to go up 21-7 and threw a 90+ yard pick six...had that not happened it was going to be a blow out. Nebraska has 3 NFL bound D linemen and the second best back in the country. Was down in Jacksonville for New Year's and went to the Gator Bowl next morning. They physically were better than UGA.

    1 pick 6 doesn't make an entire game. McNeese State should have won the game from what I saw. They totally outplayed NB, I don't care how many NFL players. Didn't NB play the Gator Bowl last season? What does that have to do with Miami?

    I don't think Miami is coached up real well. Golden is very overrated IMO. This is just one game, it won't tell the total story on either team and anything can certainly happen here. I just like Duke getting points, especially when I capped them winning the game.

    Miami's home field sucks. Their fans suck. They literally bus these guidos in from the city and half are leaving for the rum bar at halftime. Pretty sad college sports city.

    Too many people from somewhere else, sort of like Atlanta. You have half the people from the Caribbean and the other half from up north. Most people living in Miami grew up rooting for someone else.

    Years ago, I was able to get a walk up ticket when Mark McGwire was on his home run tear during a 3 game home stand. Can you imagine that?

    today feels like upset day. weird scores going on.
    I'll tail with Duke. They have been doing right and should be up to this challenge.
    If you want to read a pro-Duke write-up that says they win, here's one below.

    I know one thing. This Duke football team are winners. They probably aren't talented
    enough to beat the truly elite teams, but Miami is not among those elite teams at all.
    Can you say 5-0 ?

    Good luck Mac, hope we both can cash. I got miami ml before kick off at -175. The line moved back so that's a good sign for duke backers, +7.5 backers must feel nice
