Result:
WIN

Miami won in a shootout at Boston College last week 41-32. While it may have the look of an impressive offensive performance, it wasn't as it appeared. The Hurricanes took advantage of a couple of Eagles’ breakdowns. QB Stephen Harris threw the ball 45 times in the game, but totaled just 207 yards. That is less than 5 yards per attempt, which is much below average. The running game grounded-out 208 yards on 34 carries. But it is here that BC broke down, allowing Duke Johson to break free for 54, and 56 yard TDs. The other 32 attempts garnered just 98 yards. Those numbers certainly aren't reflective of 41 points and a big offensive performance. Kansas State rolled over Missouri State 51-9. Bill Snyder is in his second round at KSU and finished a surprising second in the Big-12 a year ago. Snyder always seems to do a great coaching job, even past his 70th birthday. QB Colin Kleine is the epitome of a dual-threat QB as he threw for 13 TDs a year ago, and ran for 27 more. So the Wildcats are very tough inside the red-zone. He is also a good QB with regard to ball security with just six INTs in 300 career attempts. The Hurricanes are now 17-35 ATS when off an ATS win, and are 6-13 ATS after scoring 40 or more. The Wildcats are 40-19 ATS when following a win by 20 or more. Bill Snyder is also 57-37 ATS in home games. Play on Kansas State.
