Kirk Herbstreit does not believe Texas A&M will be dealing with a “hostile environment” on Saturday against Miami.
While making his pick on College GameDay on Saturday morning, Herbstreit took a shot at Miami’s home crowd at Hard Rock Stadium. He said traveling Aggie fans might out-number the Miami faithful.
“I’m gonna go with A&M on the road. It’s not a hostile environment,” Herbstreit said. “A&M may have more fans there than Miami.
“They don’t care. Unless the Noles are in town, nobody [cares].”
Indeed, Miami has had issues getting fans to its games in the past. However, Canes have showed up for big games in recent years — especially against rivals like Florida State.
It will be interesting to see if that trend holds true on Saturday vs. Texas A&M. Miami will be looking to avenge its 17-9 loss in College Station last season.
On GameDay Saturday morning, 4 of their 5 panelists picked Texas A&M to earn the win on the road. Only Lee Corso picked the Canes.
Kickoff is at 3:30 p.m. ET on Saturday afternoon.
