Pat McAfee-They have the opportunity to maybe get right on the defensive side…Miami gave up 270 yards rushing to Georgia Tech. You’re not going to be able to do that. They have been very close in four or five of their games. Cam Ward is a difference-maker when he is on the field. Thirty-five total touchdowns this season, He’s been on fire….It feels like this is SMU and Miami’s conference even though a lot can happen in the final few weeks.
Miami at Syracuse in the final regular season game on November 30 is between two of the three top passing offenses nationally. Miami is first nationally averaging 368.2 passing YPG and Syracuse is third with 353.8 YPG. Syracuse is 128th nationally averaging 89.00 rushing YPG and Miami is 47th with 176.60 rushing YPG.
Miami knows what is in front of them. If Miami beats Wake Forest on November 23 and wins at Syracuse they will earn an ACC Championship Game berth. The ACC Champion earns an automatic berth in the CFP Playoff. Turning the defense around will be critical for Miami during the rest of the 2024 season
