ESPN college football analyst Kirk Herbstreit is picking the Miami Hurricanes to beat the Florida State Seminoles in Tallahassee on Monday night despite UM being a 5 1/2-point underdog.
"I think Miami will go up there and win," Herbstreit told WQAM (560-AM) on Tuesday. "I just think with Jacory Harris and the skill players around him being a year older . . . I think they understand the urgency with their first four games. I think they know that if they lose this first one, this thing could go in a bad direction."
Herbstreit was referring to Miami's difficult stretch to the start the season with games at FSU (Sept. 7), vs. Georgia Tech (Sept. 17), at Virginia Tech (Sept. 26) and vs. Oklahoma (Oct. 3)...
It'll be very gratifying to beat the 'Noles on their home turf to start the season.
Nappy RootsForum Veteranas much as i want to come in here and call Kirk an idiot, i cant. FSU-UM is always a mike vick, and the fact that its the first game of the year is ridiculous and dumb because it makes for terrible football.
i suspect a low scoring sloppy game. 16-9 Noles.

I'm more excited for this than I am for the Dolphins opener! :yes:
Man I hope we win this. Hopefully Whipple has something good for the offense. Also, hope our secondary isn't crap.
In other news, I'm glad CFB is back! Watching Syd'Quan Thompson tonight against Maryland and man he looks great!

Can't wait to see your offense this year. Hopefully you guys open it up alittle Your secondary will not be tested this week as FSU is down on WR's this year.
Rick 1966Forum VeteranI don't see it. I hold no hope whatsoever for the Canes until they get rid of Randy Shannon.

Randy Shannon reminds me alot of Ron Zook. Shannon will win games on talent and not great coaching
