Summary of Miami Hurricanes-Florida State previews
Miami ended their seven-game losing streak to Florida State last season. The next goal is to end a six-game home losing streak and five games specifically to Florida State at home. If they truly hope to flip the rivalry against the Seminoles winning today is essential.
Florida State’s offense has been erratic this season. Can they move the ball against the nation’s second-best defense? If they do it will likely have to be on the ground. Miami leads the nation allowing a paltry 138 yards per game through the air.
What are the keys to the game? Who wins the battle in the running game. Can the Florida State offensive line keep Miami out of the backfield and the turnover battle are all things to watch.
One of the themes throughout the week has been that the experts have come to a consensus if not unanimously picked Miami. The exception has likely come from the Florida State media.
