OUR PREDICTION: Outside of a solid win against Duke last week, Miami hasn’t been tested this season. Still, the Hurricanes look outstanding on both sides of the ball. They’re averaging 41.3 points per game offensively and are allowing just 16.3 PPG on defense. Quarterback Malik Rosier is completing 65.6 percent of his passes and is becoming more confident in Mark Richt’s offense by the week. Florida State, meanwhile, has struggled offensively with freshman quarterback James Blackman under center. The Seminoles have scored just three touchdowns on their 12 trips inside the red zone this season and while their defense will keep things close throughout, I like Miami to find a way in the second half to pull away and end its losing streak to FSU.
