The Miami Hurricanes have a spot at the table. That's the good news. The bad news is they will be on the road against Texas A&M. The game will be played on Saturday, December 20th at Noon. ESPN will have the broadcast.
Early odds from FanDuel have the Hurricanes as 4.5-point underdogs. The Hurricanes are one of three road teams that are underdogs for the first-round of the playoffs. Alabama is the only road team that is favored. This is the first time Miami will be underdogs since the season opener against Notre Dame, which the Hurrricanes won 27-24.
