Miami Hurricanes at Duke: Live Steaming and Game Info
The 2-0 Miami Hurricanes travel to the 4-0 Duke Blue Devils for Miami’s ACC opener on Friday night. The game is the first Miami will play in Durham since their miraculous victory there two years ago.
The Miami Hurricanes visit to Durham, North Carolina on Friday night is Miami’s first game in Durham since the miracle eight lateral victory there in 2015. That was ironically the only start of Malik Rosier’s career before this season.
Rosier will make just the fourth start of his collegiate career on Friday night. That’s half of his career starts in Durham when the Hurricanes take the field Friday night.
Miami dominated Toledo in the second half last week. Trailing 16-10 at halftime, the Hurricanes outscored the Rockets 42-14 after halftime to earn the 52-30 victory. Mark Walton ran for 204 yards on 11 carries and Rosier threw for 333 yards and three touchdowns.
Duke has gotten off to their 4-0 start behind starting quarterback Daniel Jones. He has thrown for 904 yards, five touchdowns and two interceptions through four games. Jones has run for another 182 yards and three touchdowns.
The Duke offense in more than just Jones. Running backs Shaun Wilson and Brittian Brown each have over 300 yards and have combined for seven rushing touchdowns. T.J. Rahming leads the Duke receivers with 24 receptions for 248 yards. He is seventh in the ACC in receiving.

The Miami Hurricanes should be in better shape on Friday night than they were against Toledo. The coaching staff thought their team was winded against the Rockets in the second quarter. Toledo had four scoring drives, but they yielded only 16 points.

The game is another step up for Miami. Duke brings in a very good defense. Miami was supposed to have a conference game under it’s belt before playing Duke. Their game against Florida State that was supposed to occur September 16 has been moved to October 7 at 3:30 PM ET.
