The Miami football program will seek to get just its second bowl victory since 2006 when they play Louisiana Tech in the Independence Bowl in Shreveport, Louisiana the day after Christmas at 4 PM. The Hurricanes opened as a 10.5 favorite according to the Action Network after the Independence Bowl pairing was announced Sunday.
After an extremely disappointing season for the Miami football team, the very early betting has leaned greatly to the Bulldogs. The Action Network was measuring that 91 percent of the money as of Sunday night had been placed on Louisiana Tech.
