Miami vs Texas A&M Prediction & Pick

Wow, what an upset by Appalachian State over Texas A&M. The Aggies only managed 9 first downs and 186 yards offense in defeat as the Mountaineers offense possessed the ball for more than 41 minutes in an improbable victory. How do the A&M players bounce back from that knowing App State allowed 63 points in a wild overtime defeat to North Carolina the week prior?

Coach Jimbo Fisher is 7-1 SU and 4-4 ATS vs Miami going back to his days as head coach at Florida State. But that won't matter if his players don't respond with Miami's offense in full go mode led by preseason first team ACC quarterback Tyler Van Dyke.

Final Score Prediction: Miami: 27 | Texas A&M: 17

Miami vs Texas A&M Best Bet

Miami can win this game with the superior quarterback and opportunistic defense and secondary. The Hurricanes defense has 5 sacks in two games along with 3 INTs in the opener and 3 more forced turnovers last week in their 31-7 shutdown of Southern Miss. The Hurricanes allowed just 24 rushing yards and 231 total yards. Miami's rushing attack has gone for nearly 500 yards in two games and Van Dyke has passed for 446 yards.

Texas A&M's poor QB play last week by Haynes King was matched by an inept running game. The Aggies offense only scored 7 points as the other touchdown was a 95 yard kickoff return. Easy to overreact to the poor performance by A&M, but the stronger opponent and questionable confidence of the Aggies players off such a disappointing performance dictates the play on Miami.
