Miami Hurricanes midseason review of the offense
Miami has improved since the season-opening loss to LSU which could have been demoralizing. Behind the defense forcing two turnovers in the red zone and Perry’s 41-yard touchdown pass to Jordan in the fourth quarter the Hurricanes showed grit coming back from a 27-7 deficit to defeat Florida State.
The offense has to start manufacturing drives on their own. Their first drive on Saturday was 83 yards and their last one was 73. The two in between were 37 total.
Against North Carolina, the defense scored three of Miami’s six touchdowns against North Carolina. The UM offense will not always be able to rely on great field position against the better teams.
Boston College will be a big test after the bye week. Miami will have two games after that to get ready for Virginia Tech. Saturday will the biggest test for Miami offense for the rest of the regular season. Virginia is 22nd in the nation in defense.
If the Hurricanes are going to be a serious contender for the College Football Playoff and potentially challenge Clemson for the ACC Championship, the offense needs to continue to grow and improve.
dark. Next. Miami defensive line playing at a higher level than Clemson
The offensive inconsistency is what ultimately led to the three-game losing streak to end last season. The same problems continued with LSU in the opener to extend the losing streak to four games to start this season. The offense will likely grow and improve as Perry and the offensive line do…we hope.
