Asking if the U is Back Is CFB’s Most Overhyped Question

The official NCAA website has the Miami storyline: “The “U” looks for return to glory” ranked number 46 on their list of the  “50 storylines and questions for the 2017 college football season”. 

"“Miami (Fla.) finished 9-4 in Mark Richt’s first season at the helm of his alma mater but failed to win any signature games — largely thanks to Florida State’s DeMarcus Walker. This season, the Canes look to take the next step behind their stout defense, led by linebacker Shaq Quarterman (85 tackles, three sacks in 2016).”"

With 50 storylines to write about NCAA.Com simplified the Miami season. It’s unfair to label that the Hurricanes had no signature wins. Miami crushed then number 14 West Virginia 31-14 in the Russell Athletic Bowl.

The Mountaineers were likely just two spots out in the rankings from playing in a New Year’s Six bowl. Richt’s first year cannot be judged anything other than a success.

Read American Football also had their own list of questions for the 2017 season titled “2017 COLLEGE FOOTBALL SEASON – 20 QUESTIONS”. The Hurricanes came in at number seven.

R.A.F. asked : “Can Miami finally break through?”:

"“Since Miami moved to the ACC in 2004, the Hurricanes have somehow never played in the ACC Championship Game. Anything less than that in 2017 should be seen as a disappointment. The ACC Coastal field is muddy, but Miami should be viewed as the favorites. This should be the year they break one of the more peculiar streaks in college football.”"
