After losing a heartbreaker in the Title game in their home stadium last year, Miami is charging back with renewed passion, and that has brought them through to this point of the season unbeaten.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Miami has arguably the best QB in the country in Darian Mensah, who is setting records for accuracy each week. They have supremely talented players at every level of the field on all 3 phases of the game, and they\u2019re already 5-0 on the year. Miami also had the benefit of a bye week last week to have several players continue their recovery from injuries sustained earlier in the season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Florida State, on the contrary, just lost to Louisville on the road after being up 14-0 in the 2nd quarter with 4th and goal on the Cards\u2019 2 yard line. After failing on that singular play, FSU watched Louisville go on a 44-6 run to win 44-20.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">That loss dropped the Seminoles to 3-3 on the year heading into this week\u2019s rivalry game. These teams are of clearly different classes in terms of talent, skill, and performance. As has been the case in favor of both teams over the last 15 years in this matchup, one is much, MUCH better than the other.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">This is supported by this line. This line is as large in Miami\u2019s favor this week as it was in the opener against Stanford. This should, and will, be a bloodbath.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">We\u2019ll talk about this game much more this week. But for now, you know the details.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Miami. Florida State. Hard Rock Stadium. 7pm. Saturday night.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Canes are favored by more than 3 touchdowns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For Miami, they\u2019re looking to make another push to the College Football Playoffs and National Championship Game.
