Miami vs. Florida: 3 Things 2 Watch 4
Kickoff between Miami and Florida is here. Before the Hurricanes kickoff against Florida in Ben Hill Griffen from the SEC, CanesToday shares 3 Things 2 Watch 4.
Kickoff: 3:30 p.m. ET
TV: ABC
Line: Miami -2.5
The question remains: What strategies will Miami employ? Will they continue to execute quick, dust-filled drives, or will they opt for a more strategic approach, launching deep passes downfield? The answer could be a combination of both. Mario Cristobal, a strategic thinker, is eager to achieve success without compromising on his goals.
In the previous season, the Florida Gators’ defensive running game was ranked among the most ineffective in the league, placing them at the bottom of the SEC. Consequently, the Hurricanes are compelled to rely on their running game, as they possess a scary lineup including Damien Martinez, Mark Fletcher, Ajay Allen, Jordan Lyle, and Chris Johnson Jr, all capable of contributing to the team’s offensive efforts in this game.
Miami hired Matt Merritt as their new running back coach. With him, the team improved, ranking third in the American Athletic Conference and setting a new record for total yards in 2023. They’re keeping their physical style but are also changing to better fit their players’ strengths.
