Miami moves down one spot in AP Poll after win over Wake Forest
The Miami Hurricanes took care of business on Friday night against Wake Forest with a 33-20 win in a game that was (mostly) a tale of two halves in Winston-Salem. Miami led 31-7 before slogging their way through a relatively listless second half to end up hanging on. That was particularly the case on the […]
Film Review: Miami Hurricanes 33 – Wake Forest Demon Deacons 20
The Miami Hurricanes came out hot and held on to beat the Wake Forest Demon Deacons 33-20 on Friday night. The Friday night games in the ACC have grown a lore of their own, including a home loss for Miami to Louisville in 2025. This time the offensive start was too much for WF to […]

Three Stars: Miami vs Wake Forest
The Miami Hurricanes overcame a lackluster second half to beat the Wake Forest Demon Deacons tonight in Winston Salem, 33-20.

Recap: Miami survives Wake Forest 33-20

I can’t wait to watch the Canes Friday night at Wake Forest. I heard there might be some rain and scattered thunderstorms.

The Miami Hurricanes are facing their first real challenge of the 2026 season in a Friday night road trip to Winston-Salem to take on Wake Forest. The Demon Deacons are 62nd in Bill Connelly’s SP+ while Miami is 4th. I realize that’s not boot shakin’ high but it’s better than in the 80’s like Stanford. […]

Monday Musings: FAMU tidbits; a big day for a big former Hurricane
Happy Monday, everybody. And, once again, despite it being Florida A&M it is a Miami Hurricanes victory Monday. So, without further ado, let’s get into the Miami Hurricanes-related tidbits floating around in my brain. 1) Miami destroyed Florida A&M. It’s hard to take much from it when you outclass an opponent that badly. But there […]

The Miami Hurricanes are now a top 5 team again. The Hurricanes moved up one spot in both polls after a 77-7 shellacking of the Florida A&M Rattlers on Thursday night at Hard Rock Stadium in a game that could have been 125-0 if Miami wanted. But a half of starters watching was enough to […]
Storm Cellar: All-22 Review of MIAMI HURRICANES O-Line vs. FAMU Rattlers
The Miami Hurricanes had a much improved game along the offensive line in the run game and it wasn’t just the talent drop across the field.

Film Review: Miami Hurricanes 77 – FAMU Rattlers 7
The Miami Hurricanes move to 2-0 after drubbing the FAMU Rattlers 77-7 on Thursday night at Hard Rock Stadium. I predicted Miami by 40+ and clearly that was an easy take.
