College Football Network : Miami 42, Virginia Tech 17

Troy Perlowitz writes: “But with all due respect, Miami is on another planet compared to those schools and should prove that on Friday. Though the Heisman Trophy candidate is going against the second-best pass defense in the ACC, Ward will have an opportunity to show why he belongs in that conversation and take some deep shots against an untested Hokies secondary.”

Jason Ence writes: “Virginia Tech’s ability to make up some ground late in defeats also helps. The Hokies scored 24 second-half points against Vanderbilt, and 16 points in the fourth quarter last week against Rutgers. Miami has no problem running up the score, and there is no love lost between these two programs. Virginia Tech will post some garbage time points like it did last week, and that will push the total Over.”
