4* Miami +4.5 (-120) (8:05 PM)
Huge line move here as Miami opened as a -5.5 favorite and now find themselves +4 point dogs. That is a 9.5 point swing. There is a reason why Miami was such a big favorite on the road to begin with. Maryland lost some key players on both sides of the ball. They lost some to graduation but they have lost some to injury and suspensions as well. Jacory Harris is no doubt a big loss but he didn't play in this game last year either, today's starter Stephen Morris did. He started that game and played well, throwing for 286 yards and leading them on a 80+ yard drive at the end of the game for the winning score. That was against a defense that was better than this one should be (IMO). So even though they lose Harris, it isn't a guy they had for last years game either. One thing we all know is talent and Miami definately has way more depth than Maryland does. Danny O'Brien had his worst game of the year against Miami last season and the Hurricanes may have lost some starters but you know the backups will have something the starters all did, speed. All 6 previous Labor day games featuring 1 or 2 ACC teams have all been decided by 6 or fewer points. I do not see this one any differently. I bought the half because i think it may be the difference between a Win or a Push in this one. I played the teaser below because most of the Miami suspensions and bigger losses on Maryland come on the defensive side of the ball. The Miami offense still brings a ton of talent to this game and Maryland should find the going a little easier with O'Brien against a Miami defense that had their best LB and Secondary guys suspended. It should open it up for points to be scored on both sides of the ball. Miami 27 Maryland 24
4* "7 PT." Teaser = Miami (+11) - "OVER" (39) -130 (8:05 PM)
GOOD LUCK
