The Miami Hurricanes offense is far from a one-man show. Jason Ence's early look at Virginia Tech vs. Miami sees Cam Ward leaning on his fleet of running backs to blow out the Hokies on Friday night.Virginia Tech hopes to avoid falling below .500 on the season when the Hokies take on the Miami Hurricanes on Friday night.
The Hokies rank 93rd in EPA/rush, 78th in early down EPA, and 73rd in rushing defense success rate while allowing 4.4 yards per carry. And this is despite Rutgers gaining just 2.9 yards per run last week on 52 carries. Drones won’t be able to make enough plays here to cover the spread with a big time throw rate of just 3.03%. Miami will get the lead early, extend it by running the ball, and simply pound Virginia Tech into submission. Leave the points and take the Canes, even at a number that has risen by multiple points since opening. I’m fully leaning Over in this one, and I’m loving that the total has come down to 55.5 after opening a point higher.
One thing that will help the Over cash is the fact that both defenses are prone to giving up big pass plays. In fact, while the Canes are allowing just a 23% success rate on pass plays, the ones that teams have connected on against them have registered a 1.38 EPA.
