Miami Football hosts Bethune-Cookman: 2019 Home opener information
Bethune-Cookman at Miami: Game Information
Saturday, September 14, 2019, 4 p.m. ET | ACC Network
Miami Gardens, Fla., Hard Rock Stadium (64,767)
BETHUNE-COOKMAN WILDCATS (1-0, 0-0 MEAC)
HEAD COACH: Terry Sims (Knoxville College, 1994) | CAREER: 28-17 (fifth season) | AT B-CU: 28-17 (fifth)
MIAMI HURRICANES (0-2, 0-1 ACC)
HEAD COACH: Manny Diaz (Florida State, 1995) | CAREER: 0-2 (first season) | AT MIAMI: 0-2 (first)
The Miami football team should continue to dominate Bethune-Cookman. The Wildcats were thoroughly dominated by Jackson State despite the lopsided victory. Two defensive touchdowns skewed the final margin. Bethune-Cookman allowed 506 total yards, including 233 rushing, in the win over the Tigers.
The offense for the Miami football team has been pass dominant through two games. Some of the rushing yardage is contributable to the 14 sacks Miami has given up through the first two games. The Hurricanes are averaging 261.5 passing yards and 136.5 rushing yards through the first two games.
Miami leads the country with 14 sacks allowed and 80 yards lost in 2019. The Hurricanes are 91st in rushing offense. With the yardage lost on sacks, Miami is still a mediocre 59th running the football. The Hurricanes will likely put up big numbers on the ground against an inferior Bethune-Cookman team.

Comcast offered to put ACC Net on tier for people who want to pay extra, but ESPN rejected that offer. Next 2 UM football and at least 11 men's hoops games on ACC Net. https://t.co/WK69SnoctP

Many Miami football fans are still without the ACC Network. Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reported on Friday afternoon that Comcast offered to put the ACC Network on one of their tier packages for people who wanted to pay extra. ESPN refused the offer. The Hurricanes next two games are on the ACC Network.
There are multiple alternatives to cable and satellite. Fubo is one streaming service to examine among others.
