    A couple Sunshine State teams being undervalued
    A talented and athletic Miami squad at +9.5 and a top 5 QB led Florida St team at +8.5 are being undervalued this week against OSU and Okla respectively. I understand they are both on the road, but they are both hungry and talented teams looking to make a run at their conference title.

    Landry Jones has not proven to be a big game QB and the Sooners lost a lot to the NFL. I know it was a look ahead game for OU last week, but their D was exposed, and Ponder is poised to take advantage. The Seminoles have the athletes to contain Murray better than Utah State did as well. An upset would not surprise me here.

    OSU is very solid, theres no arguing that. But Jacory Harris is just as talented as Pryor, and it will come down to the defense and who makes the least turnovers. I see the speed of Miami's D to be able to keep Pryor in the pocket for the most part, making him one dimensional. And although much improved, he's not a pure pocket QB yet. If Harris takes care of the ball, look for the Canes to keep it close all game with a chance to win in the 4th.

    And, on a sidenote, +15 is a lot to give South Florida against the overrated Gators who could barely snap the ball last week at home againast Miami (OH).

    i thinkn miami covers this week. i see both OSU and miami as being pretty even with each other in terms of talent, experience, and speed. 9.5 points is too much. i doubt ohio st.'s homefield advantage would play that big of a role. USC went in there with a freshman QB and still beat them.
