Featured Game | Miami (OH) RedHawks vs. Cincinnati Bearcats
Why Miami (OH) can cover
Miami’s loss to Kentucky had a deceiving final score, as the RedHawks trailed by just three points at halftime before struggling in the second half. They bounced back with a convincing win over Robert Morris last week, racing out to a 24-7 halftime lead and cruising down the stretch. Starting quarterback Brett Gabbert is out indefinitely, but freshman Aveon Smith completed 14 of 22 passes for 155 yards and three touchdowns in Week 2.
The RedHawks also have a host of running backs who can provide Smith with support, as four players have already reached the 50-yard mark on the ground. Sophomores Kevin Davis and Kenny Tracy are each averaging more than 8.0 yards per carry, while senior wide receiver Mac Hippenhammer has 11 receptions for 137 yards. Miami has won six of its last nine games dating back to last season, so the RedHawks are in good form and will be confident heading into this big opportunity at home.
Why Cincinnati can cover
Cincinnati is undervalued after losing a close game against Arkansas in its season opener. The Bearcats responded from that loss with a 63-10 win over Kennesaw State, easily covering the 30-point spread in the process. Senior quarterback Ben Bryant completed 17 of 20 passes for 201 yards and three touchdowns, while freshman running back Myles Montgomery had eight carries for 108 yards and a score.
The Bearcats have been impressive running the ball this season, averaging 5.2 yards per carry. They were dominant against Miami (OH) last season, picking up a 49-14 win as 22.5-point favorites. Cincinnati has covered the spread in four of the last five meetings between these teams and will take apply pressure on Miami’s backup quarterback in this game.
