From the booth

The model favored FIU to win, and the call landed.

Well, this one's not even close to a contest. FIU is absolutely loaded here at 99 percent to win, and the model agrees with Vegas, the betting markets, and the Elo ratings that the Panthers have a massive talent advantage over Long Island. You're looking at a 35-and-a-half point spread, and with everything pointing toward home dominance, this has all the makings of a statement-making afternoon for the Panthers on their home field. Long Island's got a one percent shot, and frankly, they're gonna need to play the game of their lives just to keep it respectable.
