Vanderbilt at Miami Ohio

Vanderbilt could find themselves winless this season in the tough SEC. This is a team with just nine seniors on their entire squad! The offense is returning only three starters, so game one on the road may be a difficult place to expect an inexperienced offense to produce points. The Commodores went 9-2 UNDER last season. Miami, Ohio returns eight players from their offense from '07, but is that a good thing? This is a bad offense that scored 14 or less points in six games, and 17 or less in eight games. Their total against BCS teams? Vandy (13), Cincinnati (10) and Colorado (0) amounted to just 7.8 points per game on average. They combined for just 126 rushing yards against these teams and suffered a combined 10 sacks vs Cincinnati and Vanderbilt. The offense was overmatched all season, and we don't expect to see much improvement, especially versus a BCS team against whom they really struggled last season. We like the UNDER in this one.
