Miami crushed USF 49–12 in their most dominant ranked win since 2001, with Carson Beck throwing for 340 yards and four total TDs, Mark Fletcher running for 120 yards and two scores, and the defense holding Byrum Brown to just two rushing yards while forcing multiple turnovers. True freshman Joshua Moore stole the show with two first-quarter TDs, while Miami’s O-line continued its streak as the nation’s best in pass protection. The only concern: nine penalties for 69 yards, which Cristobal’s staff will aim to fix before Saturday’s primetime showdown with Florida. With ESPN’s College Gameday coming to Coral Gables and recruiting stakes sky-high, the Canes have a chance to cement themselves as a national title contender under the brightest lights yet.
