First look: Virginia at Miami odds and lines

Previewing the Virginia Cavaliers at Miami Hurricanes Week 5 matchup, with college football odds, trends and head-to-head records.

The Virginia Cavaliers (2-2, 0-2 ACC) travel to Hard Rock Stadium to face the Miami Hurricanes (2-2, 0-0) this Thursday at 7:30 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Virginia at Miami odds and lines; check back for our college football picks and predictions.

It has been a familiar theme for Virginia through its first four games: a ton of points on both sides of the ball. QB Brennan Armstrong leads the nation with 426.3 yards per game and has 13 TDs to just 3 INTs. But for as prolific as the passing game has been, the Cavaliers defense is giving up 6.3 yards per play (worst in the ACC; 113th in the nation).

Miami crushed Central Connecticut State 69-0 in a much-needed reset last week after two brutal losses to Alabama (44-13) and Michigan State (38-17) in Weeks 1 and 3, respectively.

QB D’Eriq King missed Miami’s last game with a shoulder injury, and as of Monday, it’s unknown whether he’ll be available for this one. Backups Jake Garcia and Tyler Van Dyke split time last week and combined to throw for 417 yards and 5 TDs.
