Miami Hurricanes at Appalachian State Mountaineers Game Overview
</p>
<p>
The Mountaineers had no cobwebs visible after they suffered a bitter defeat in Knoxville the week prior.

As for Miami, the true colors and fiber of this Hurricanes team has yet to be tested. The Hurricanes enter at 2-0 but that is not saying much in light of who they have defeated. The list of assailed includes Florida A&M and Florida Atlantic. Miami has not traveled out of town and they have played host to two in-state foes that consist of a FCS opponent and a FBS out that plays like a FCS school. For Miami, these two wins have been earned by what many would construe as weak competition. Appalachian State on the road will be the first test.

Miami Hurricanes at Appalachian State Mountaineers Prediction
A heavy amount of the consensus are on the Canes as the line has already moved half a point since open. Nevertheless we continue to see the Mountaineers frequently undervalued in pivotal games of circumstance, the Tennessee outing serving as a great source of evidence to back this hypothesis. The Mountaineers are a dangerous team and the combination of Marcus Cox and Jacob Lamb is a difficult riddle for any team to solve. Getting these two at home complemented by an opposition with inconsistencies on both offense and defense and we have a situation take shape where an upset can be imminent. Miami better look over their shoulder as they enter Boone because they are rightfully on upset alert. App State has a passion for slaying giants such as Miami, look no further than what almost happened two weeks ago and what has transpired historically. While the Hurricanes have a propensity for action by namesake alone, the Mountaineers as we have highlighted are frequently undervalued in these scenarios. This game can further reinforce that notion. Don’t be shocked if the Mountaineers win this game outright.
Free Pick:
Appalachian State +4.5
