Virginia Tech
(4-4) @ Miami (Fla.) (4-4)
Vs.
7:30 ET, ESPN, Thur.
Nov. 1, Sun Life Stadium, Miami, FL
Rulers of the
Thursday night game, the Canes and Hokies have long been staples of ESPN
Thursday night broadcasts, many times playing one another. Miami stands 15-3
all-time on Thursday night. Both teams come in fully rested and healed off bye
weeks, but Miami may have benefited more with having starting quarterback Stephen
Morris rest his ankle one more week. ACC Coastal rights sit on the line with
both teams still in the running for a weak ACC division this season. Sun Life
Stadium is seldom a hostile environment, if ever, but there’s something about the
‘Canes playing on Thursday nights. Miami hung tight against the Hokies with
their running game last year, but it’ll be the passing game and combo of Morris
and wideout Phillip Dorsett that bring home victory tonight. The away team moves to 1-5 over
six years in the series. Pick: Miami (Fla.) 37 – Virginia Tech 31
