but they are pretty close.\u00a0 Last week against Ball State QB Patrick Nicely had his best day of the season throwing for 4TDs.\u00a0 That represents more than half of his season total and the Zips are not going to be able to do anything on offense unless he improves.\u00a0 Nicely has the worst QB rating of any passer with more than 100 attempts this year.\u00a0 To be honest it isn\u2019t even close.<\/p>\n<p>Although 0-10 straight up the Zips are 3-7 ATS so they are capable of surprising like they did last week when they exploded for 30 points for the first time since week 2.\u00a0 Given what they have shown thus far another outburst is unlikely but you can\u2019t overestimate the power of trying to avoid winless immortality.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Pick:<\/strong> I have a hard time believing Akron can keep it close against a team with something to play for.\u00a0 I\u2019m backing Miami.<\/p>\n<p><strong>College Football Gambling Trends<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Redhawks are 5-1 ATS vs. a team with a losing record.<br \/>\nRedhawks are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 conference games.<br \/>\nRedhawks are 15-5-1 ATS in their last 21 road games vs. a team with a losing home record.<br \/>\nZips are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games following a bye week.<br \/>\nZips are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games as an underdog of 3.5-10.0.<br \/>\nZips are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games following a S.U. loss.<br \/>\nFavorite is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 meetings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Score Prediction:\u00a0 Miami 27 &#8211;
