The lonely six-year-old bakkie competition that is not the new year, and the ranking against each other will take place on Tuesday when no. 18 Miami (FL) and no. 21 Oklahoma State concludes the Cheez-It Bowl in Orlando. The Hurricanes kicked off the final game of the regular season with the outcome of the New Year’s Six Tournament when they were beaten 62-26 by North Carolina. This not only prevented the Hurricanes from making a big bowl, but also doubts that the 2020 season has proven that they are on the rise.
The Cowboys had a regular season that ended on a high note with an emphatic 42-3 victory over Baylor on December 12th. Quarterback Spencer Sanders threw for 347 yards and three touchdowns in the win over the Bears. What will happen in the Cheez-It Bowl between a few teams hoping to end their seasons strong? Let’s break it down and make some choices.
Stories
Oklahoma State: The Cowboys kicked off the running game after Chuba sponsored Hubbard to prepare for the NFL. Dezmon Jackson rushed 235 yards against Texas Tech on November 28 and 235 yards against TCU on December 5, but he only had 38 and did not find the finish line against Baylor in the final season. The responsibility falls on Dominic Richardson, who filled the rock 23 times for 169 yards and three touchdowns. The committee’s approach to running assistance was able to make the offense click despite the uproar in the middle of the season.
The Oklahoma State defense has limited major plays … at least by the Big 12 standards. It ranks third at the conference at 5.18 meters per play, leading the Big 12 in losses per game at 8.3. That aggressive style has become an important part of Mike Gundy’s coaches over the years.
Miami (FL): Prior to the North Carolina game, the Hurricanes defense had dropped more than 400 yards in just one game since losing Oct. 10 to Clemson. Things looked up. Then they give 778 to the Tar Heels and all trust is lost. It does not bode well for you to compete in this competition. The offense, on the other hand, was solid throughout. The transfer quarter D’Eriq King is as advertised, and he started this attack under the leadership of Rhett Lashlee. The Canes pick up 5.97 meters per play and give fans of ‘The U’ hope for the future.

Cheez-It Bowl prediction, pick
Last chance:
Oklahoma State Cowboys -1
Give me the Cowboys to win and cover the small spread. The combination of their dynamic attack and offensive defense will be too much to overcome the Hurricanes. Sanders will reach the 300-meter mark, one of the backs will reach the top of the century and the Canes will go on a sour note after the off-season. Pick: Oklahoma State (-2.5) | Oklahoma State 42, Miami 27
