North Florida vs Miami Prediction

In this North Florida vs Miami Prediction, Miami is coming as -36.5 home favorites. Miami has been the far better team this season, as they have lost only twice in their 12 games this season and have been undefeated at home. They are also playing their 9th game at home, out of their 13 overall so far and are up against a struggling North Florida team with just two wins in 11 games and has been winless on the road. Miami has been superior both offensively and defensively, having a +20.4 point differential this season, compared to North Florida’s -9.1. I expect a dominating win by the home side today, so take Miami and lay the points.
