Florida State has been far more impressive this season with all three of their losses against teams who were ranked when they defeated the Seminoles. There is uncertainty who Miami will start at quarterback. Tyler Van Dyke missed last week’s game with an injury.
The money could move towards Miami if Van Dyke is cleared to start. An announcement about Van Dyke is not expected to game day. Florida State and Miami will kick off at 7:30 PM ET. With the late kickoff, it’s best to not include the game in a parlay with the uncertainty surrounding Van Dyke.

The Miami offense will be the key to how the game turns out. Miami has not been consistent offensively for an entire game in 2022.
