Action on Thursday night's Miami Hurricanes vs. Ole Miss Rebels game was balanced with the line moving between the -3 and -3 favoring Miami. This game is taking place in Glendale, Arizona with no home advantage for either team.
A Look at the Line Move
The line has moved between the -3 and -3 favoring the Canes, as mentioned above.
Power Ratings Model
This line is on the money as we get Miami -3.5. Our model does not provide any edge here.
Consensus Cappers
Two highly successful cappers we follow happen to be backing the Hurricanes here, both at -3.5.
The Action Network performs especially well with their plays, however, they are on Ole Miss.
I think everyone is underestimating Trinidad Chambliss. He’s playing at an insane level. He’s almost unpressurable.
And that’s the key against Miami. The Hurricanes' strength is their pass rush, and if they don’t get home, they will give up plenty of explosive plays — and Ole Miss can hit explosives as good as any team in the country.
I also think Ole Miss can wear Miami’s defensive ends down by upping the tempo.
At the same time, I believe Ole Miss has the better offense between these two teams.
Winners and Whiners are backing Miami though.
Miami’s defensive line, anchored by Akheem Mesidor and Rueben Bain Jr., is the difference-maker here.11 While Ole Miss has an explosive offense, they haven't faced a front four this physical since earlier in the season. If Miami can pressure Chambliss without blitzing, they will limit the big-play ability of the Rebels' deep receiving corps. Expect Miami to win a close, physical battle and cover the small spread.
Verdict
This one is a wash and we won't have a play, though the handicapping edge is on Miami -3.5.
