OUR PREDICTION: The Hurricanes haven’t faced stiff competition this season so it’s hard to know just how much better they are than the Seminoles, who have already lost two games this season, but with losses versus Louisville and North Carolina. Regardless, FSU has surrendered a school-record 177 points through five games this season and that’s the difference in this matchup. While Miami has to contender with Dalvin Cook, FSU’s defense has been a sieve this year so Brad Kaaya and Co. should rack up plenty of points at home to cover.
