The current betting odds have Texas A&M listed as a 4 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Texas A&M wasn't good last season and their offense was a big issue but they have made a lot of changes to their offense to improve for this season and so far it has paid off as they scored 52 points in their 1st game of the season. This will be a much tougher test on the road against Miami-FL who does have a really good defense but Texas A&M is still a team from the SEC with a much improved offense this year and they are going to be looking to put up a ton of points in this game and run up the score as they have a point to prove this year that they will be competitive in the SEC. Miami-FL has a good defense but their offense isn't great under Tyler Van Dyke and they are going to struggle to move the ball against this Texas A&M defense that has also improved. Texas A&M will pull away in this game eventually and Miami-FL won't have the offense to keep up here. The best way to place a bet here is on Texas A&M to cover the spread in this game.
