When you make your online sports betting wagers on the Hurricanes this season the outcome of your wager is largely going to be determined by the play of quarterback Jacory Harris.
He is capable of great play but he showed in Miami’s two losses that he can make mistakes. The Hurricanes will be in the spotlight early in offshore sports betting as in the second week of the season they visit #2 Ohio State.
Online sports betting odds at Sbg global.com will list Miami as an underdog in Week 2 at Ohio State. The Hurricanes open up with Florida A&M on Thursday, September 2nd and that should be an easy win.
Miami can get right into the national title picture if they can upset the Buckeyes in Week 2. That game will get a lot of attention since it will be televised on ESPN.
All or Nothing with Harris: Jacory Harris has been an all or nothing quarterback for Miami. He threw 24 touchdown passes last season but he also threw 17 interceptions. Harris has an unbelievably strong arm and he oftentimes will force the ball when he should throw it away.
He is also very athletic which means he will make big plays with his legs but also get into trouble more than he should. The Hurricanes have nothing behind Harris at quarterback so their season rests on his arm.
Receiving Talent for Harris – Miami is loaded at receiver. They have Leonard Hankerson who is one of the best in the country. He is joined by LaRon Byrd, Aldarius Johnson and Tommy Streeter. They also have speedster Travis Benjamin who is a track star.
Miami’s Schedule: The Hurricanes can get into the national title discussion because of their tough schedule. If they upset Ohio State in offshore sports betting they will immediately move into contention. The problem for the Hurricanes is that they then have to go to Pittsburgh and Clemson. Those are winnable games though.
They also have another tough road game at Georgia Tech later in the season. And they have two tough home games vs. North Carolina and Virginia Tech. With that schedule it is easy to see why wagers on the Hurricanes will largely be determined by the play of quarterback Jacory Harris.
