For the first time in the Mario Cristobal era, Miami will host FAMU at Hard Rock. Here’s what CIS will be keeping a close eye on today.
Kickoff: 6 pm EST
TV: ACC Network+ & ESPN+
Line: Miami -44.5
In the game against Florida, Miami's defense performed admirably. They came through when it mattered most, dominating the Gators' offense. The Gators only managed to convert 1-out-of-9 third-down attempts. The Canes need to replicate that same level of performance in today's game.
Miami does not like to release their depth chart until game time so we will see if he will be listed as healthy.

Miami Third Down Defense
In the game against Florida, Miami's defense performed admirably. They came through when it mattered most, dominating the Gators' offense. The Gators only managed to convert 1-out-of-9 third-down attempts. The Canes need to replicate that same level of performance in today's game.
Get Pressure early
The Miami defensive line needs to dominate in the trenches. Although the Rattlers have one of the best offensive lines in HBCU, the Hurricanes' defensive line is too much for the Rattlers on paper. The Canes need to hit them in the mouth early so we can play our rotational starters in the second/third quarter.JoJo Trader
After standing out in fall camp, JoJo Trader didn't play against the Gators. It’s unclear why, but giving him some playing time this game today presents a great opportunity for him to get some reps.Miami does not like to release their depth chart until game time so we will see if he will be listed as healthy.
