Selection: Miami (FL) Under 46
The Hurricanes just do not score much these days against quality foes. No longer do they have a capable passing game like they did in the glory years. Instead, they are forced to run the ball and the Canes havent had a tremendous amount of success on the ground either. They do have a capable defense, however, and they are facing an offense that also prefers to run the football in Texas A&M. With two teams that prefer to run the ball and two teams that dont throw it very much, we have to look to the under in this one

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 20
*Texas A&M 20 - MIAMI-FLORIDA 19--Unsettled Hurricane offense blowing more cold than hot early on, although return to LY's starter Kyle Wright at QB gives aerial attack more zip. Tough for Aggie option to get to corners vs. speedy UM defense. Still, A&M should be able to pound ball between tackles with bruising jr. RB J. Lane (6-0, 275; 6 TDs last 2 games). Hurricanes haven't lost a Thursday night game since 2000, but Aggies 5-1-1 last 7 as dog. CABLE TV--ESPN
