BYU vs Miami Prediction 

Both of these teams come into this matchup with one loss on the season, but BYU has been much more impressive. The Cougars just dismantled Wisconsin and in their loss to UConn, they played very well and only lost by two points. Miami has only played one decent opponent, which was a 14-point loss to Florida, so all of their numbers are skewed due to easy competition. I think we will see plenty of points in this game, but I have to side with BYU to cover, as they have looked very impressive.
