WEST VIRGINIA/MIAMI-FLA Under 54.5 - The problem with this lofty total is that only one team figures to do any scoring tonight! This Miami defense is only allowing 14.8 points per game this season, and if we factor out the 33 points Florida put up on them, they are only allowing 8.7 points per contest in their other 3 games! The strength of this defense has been the ability to stop the run, as they are allowing only 3.6 yards per carry. I expect them to shut down the West Virginia running game and force the Mountaineers to the air, which is not their strong suit. West Virginia is averaging only 123.2 passing yards per game, as opposed to 190.2 rushing yards, so I just don?t see them scoring much more than 10 points tonight. This would mean that Miami would need to score more than 45 points for us not to cash this ticket, which definitely sounds like a risk worth taking!

If you're gonna' factor out the 33 the Gators put on 'em, you might want to mention their other two opponents (besides BC) were La Tech (aerial offense) and E Car (very weak offense).
No offense intended.
