College Football Week 3 - Thursday Night Preview

14 Georgia Tech @ 20 Miami(FL)
Favorite: Miami, -5.5
In one of Week 3's biggest games, two as-yet-unbeaten ACC - Coastal rivals battle for the lead in their division. Miami comes into this game already having beaten a ranked team, 18 FSU in Week 1. Unfortunately, that was their last game, almost two weeks ago, and it was against what now appears to have been an overrated FSU team. Georgia Tech comes off a closer-than-it-should-have-been conference win against Clemson last week. Miami put up big numbers passing against FSU. GT has already shown they have trouble stopping the pass, giving up 261 yards and 3 TDs through the air last week. So Miami QB Jacory Harris will be the wild card in this game. If he can keep up the status quo here, look for both teams to score high, but Miami to pull out the win.
Pick: Miami 38 - GT 31
