With two more matches remaining in the 2020 season, there is not much to say about the Miami Hurricanes, seven matches through Atlantic Coast Conference play. The Hurricanes sit at 0-7 and have been outscored 27-2 through those matches.
In front of 9,000 fans, Miami took care of what mattered most and kept hope alive to make it to the ACC Championship Game. But the Canes (4-1, 3-1 ACC) have items to take care of before taking the field next.
Largely sealing the win for the Browns was a fourth quarter interception of Phillip Rivers by safety Sheldrick Redwine, his first professional interception.
There were isolated highlights, but the nation saw that the Canes (3-1, 2-1 ACC) have a great deal of work to do before returning to college football’s elite.
“I remember scoring my first touchdown as a Hurricane in Hard Rock, and today I got my first carry as a Seahawk in Hard Rock, so it came back around full circle,” Homer said after the game.
It’s not easy to beat your rival by six touchdowns, but that’s exactly what Miami (3-0, 2-0 ACC) did. Still, head coach Manny Diaz can take away much to improve on before the next test.
Receiver Braxton Berrios (‘14-'17) caught six passes for 75 yards and a touchdown, tight end Chris Herndon (‘14-'17) caught a pass for five yards and the ageless running back Frank Gore (‘01-'05) led New York with 63 yards on 21 carries.
The Miami Hurricanes scored early and often Saturday to defeat the Louisville Cardinals at Cardinal Stadium 47-34. The game was largely out of doubt by the end of the third quarter, but parts of the contest had fans feeling anxious and frustrated.
