With the Miami vs. Florida game drawing everyone's attention, most fans and bettors are naturally focused on the potential winner — and with both coaches on the hot season — perhaps the loser.

However, a critical angle that'll fly under the radar by most is the forecast, which, believe it or not, reveals the optimal bet for this game: A Miami vs. Florida over/under pick.

Both teams have a lot hanging in the balance for Saturday' season opener. Miami is a small favorite and the over/under is set at 54.5.

Miami dominated the transfer portal, headlined by quarterback Cam Ward. He enters the college football season with some of the best odds to win the Heisman Trophy. Florida, meanwhile, is expected to face a challenging schedule. The Gators will be underdogs likely in eight games this season, and it begins Saturday.

However, it's all about how many points will be scored Saturday when No. 19 Miami meets Florida in an ACC-SEC showdown.

Here's the betting angle some may overlook for Hurricanes vs. Gators — and it's unlike most of the betting trends we utilize with 'weather' games.
