00:02 - Mark, again, that shaped my childhood
00:05 all the way through and basically
00:06 was shaping the national championship picture for so long.
00:09 The Miami Hurricanes and the Florida State Seminoles
00:11 gonna tee it up this weekend.
00:12 The only issue is,
00:13 where did the Miami offense actually go?
00:16 And also, do they stand the chance to upstate,
00:18 excuse me, upset their in-state rival here?
00:21 This line currently sitting here at 13 and a half,
00:23 other outlets as high as 14 and a half in this football game
00:27 with a total of 50 and a half.
00:28 Is there a chance that big chest Mario Cristobal
00:31 can go into Tallahassee and pull the upset?
00:33 Or do we see Tyler Van Dyke repeatedly sacked?
00:35 And man, Miami under 10 points again here?
00:38 What happens this weekend?
00:40 - All right, so I think there's one way
00:42 that I would play this and that's it.
00:44 I think Florida State is in full on just win
00:47 and we'll see in the college football playoff road, right?
00:49 Like they can coast this thing.
00:51 You're not really gonna be challenged
00:52 the rest of the way out.
00:53 I know they still may end up, you know,
00:54 facing Louisville in a conference title game,
00:57 but Louisville is, you know,
00:58 a double digit underdog as well in that game.
01:00 That said, I would take Miami plus seven and a half
01:04 in the first half here.
01:05 Because if Miami can't keep this thing close early,
01:08 guess what?
01:09 They're not keeping it close late.
01:10 Like Florida State absolutely can sprint out
01:12 to a 21 to three lead and it would not surprise me
01:15 and I wouldn't be shocked by it.
01:16 But I don't really think Miami's built to backdoor
01:19 this thing and come back late
01:21 against Florida State's defense.
01:23 Miami's only hope is to stay tight early
01:25 to try and upset this team
01:27 and what essentially is their Super Bowl, right?
01:29 Like if they win this game,
01:30 it's the ultimate feather in the cap
01:32 for Mario Cristobal and the Hurricanes.
01:33 So they're gonna come out energized
01:35 and give it everything they got.
01:36 If they can't hang on for the first 30 minutes DRS,
01:39 I don't think there's any chance to hang on for the full 60.
01:42 I would take Miami plus seven and a half
01:43 here in the first half.
