The #20 Miami Hurricanes are taking a trip north to Tallahassee to face the Florida State Seminoles in an ACC battle.
Miami suffered a defeat in their last outing, and it was a repeat of the same issues that have plagued them in conference play. They've struggled immensely on the road, losing their last three ACC way games. They are 6-3 in the conference, and otherwise one of the top teams.
Florida State have won their last two games, both on the road, to bring their conference record up to 5-4. They've been much better since ACC play began, as they were only 2-9 outside of the conference. They lost their last game at home, snapping a four-game home winning streak.
Two Florida schools, only one game apart in the standings, are colliding tonight. Let's see how they stack up ahead of their first meeting this season.

Miami vs. Florida State Betting Prediction
While Miami has had issues on the road all season, they were in each of them until the final minutes. They are the better team tonight in almost every way. It may be closer than it should be because they are playing in Tallahassee rather than Coral Gables, but the Hurricanes should get back to winning anyway.
Prediction: Miami -3.5 (-104)
