Middle Tennessee vs Miami Prediction & Pick

While this Blue Raiders team is feisty, the Hurricanes should be able to avoid a big upset in front of their home crowd. Miami has earned the victory in each of its last five games at Hard Rock Stadium and played clean football last weekend. 27 first downs compared to 1 turnover is nothing to scoff at.

Middle Tennessee is 4-11 straight up in its last 15 games against an ACC opponent and 6-14 straight up in its last 20 away games overall. The Blue Raiders simply don't have the talent on defense to keep up with stars like running backs Jaylen Knighton and Henry Parrish Jr. The Hurricanes win this one.

Final Score Prediction: Middle Tennessee: 17 | Miami: 38

The Blue Raiders may not have the firepower to win this game, but they can keep it within three scores. After all, Middle Tennessee is 4-1 against the spread (ATS) in its last five games, while Miami is only 3-9 ATS in their last 12 non-conference games. The Hurricanes struggle to cover big spreads.

The presence of Peasant in the Blue Raiders' backfield gives them a chance to control the clock and lead lengthy drives. He averaged 9.4 yards per carry in last week's win and averages 5.0 yards per carry on the year. He should play a huge role on Saturday and keep his squad within striking distance.

Bet: Middle Tennessee +25.5 (-110)
