Miami Hurricanes Name Top Ten Plays of the Year

4. Stacy Coley tiptoes his way into the endzone to give the Hurricanes a 10-0 lead at Florida State. 
The Miami-Florida State meeting was being billed as the game that would show “The Hurricanes are back”. Miami was off to a 4-0 start and sky rocketed to number ten after not being ranked in the pre-season. This was a new look Miami program with Mark Richt at the helm.

The Hurricanes entered the game ranked ahead of Florida State for the first time since 2010. Badgley gave the U a 3-0 lead with a 37 yard field goal with 1:16 remaining in the first quarter.

Two drives later the ‘Canes went 76 yards in ten plays to extend the lead to 10-0. Coley did a brilliant job getting his feet down in the right corner of the end for a 21 yard touchdown connection with Kaaya.

Coley had one of his best games of the season. He finished the night with seven catches for 80 yards and a touchdown. His second touchdown of the night came with 1:38 remaining in the fourth quarter and brought the ‘Canes within one point.

If not for a Badgley blocked extra point, it could have been the Hurricanes biggest touchdown of the season.

A highly regarded recruit when he came to Miami three years ago, Coley had his best season as a Senior. He finished the season with careers highs with 63 receptions, 754 yards and nine touchdowns.
