them projected at N9 and a half wins but a lot of people including myself have Miami going over that I know we say the same thing every year this is Miami's year it never is I've been pretty harsh on the hurricanes in the past years but this year I'm actually buying in you have Shannon Dawson back as offensive coordinator you have Lance gy as the defensive coordinator they own recruiting they own the transfer portal they've had back-to-back top five classes in recruiting and three years ago a top 10 class and they've been top 10 every year in the transfer portal you have Cameron Ward the number one transfer portal quarterback coming over Damen Martinez the number one transfer portal running back and the wide receiver core is loaded you have brown transferring over from Houston you have George you have Xavier Restrepo they did lose both safeties to the NFL but they're replacing them with well they have a topnotch linebacker core led by Maui Goa and they also have an extremely loaded defensive line their dline is going to be one of the best in the country they're going to be getting after the quarterback and they have a lot of top guys coming in so you have Bane you have mauigoa you have CJ Clark you have cook lots of depth and they're also breaking in some new guys in the secondary and have a lot of transfers coming in in the secondary you have Daryl Porter Jr you have Dion Hill you have pal so the weapons are there and they also have a top five offensive line as of right now lots of depth there lots of NFL talent but let's take a look at this schedule let's try to run through this real quick they kick things off August 31st at the Florida Gator it's going to be a tough game this is in benhill Griffin Stadium but the pressure that Mario Chrystal ball has on him Billy Napier has just as much pressure if not threefold his seed is on fire right now if they don't reach a bowl game he's probably getting canned at some point this season Florida has been recruiting well given not making a bowl game last season they've also been working the portal well they have Mertz back at quarterback had a great season last year um after transferring over from Wisconsin their defense should be a lot better that was a weakness they're going to have a good offense a lot of transfer portal players DJ lagu is there as the backup quarterback but he's not going to be starting this season as of right now Miami is a two and a half favorite on the road I'm going to go with Miami getting the win on the road this game could have a massive effect for both of these teams the first step in the season who whoever loses this game it could spell pretty much of a let down season but I have Miami winning it September 7th the Florida A&M Rattlers this is Miami's first home game I'm obviously going to go with Miami to win that so they're going to be 2 and0 here and then Saturday September 14th Ball State Cardinals this is another home game for Miami this is another game that they should easily win right now they're sitting at 3 and0 things are cruising really good A lot of people have Miami having a top 10 offense and a top 25 defense this season I definitely think they're going to be able to achieve both of those things biggest question is the secondary on defense there's no questions right now on offense camon Ward played in the air raid Shannon Dawson runs the air raid seems like a match made in heaven Saturday September 2st at USF Bulls this game's on the road this could be somewhat of a hiccup game USF is actually not a bad Squad they do run the ball really well if you if you remember they played Alabama really close last season but they did lose the game but I have Miami continuing their hot streak winning this game they're now 4 and0 Friday September 27th Virginia Tech kis if this game was in blackburg I would actually pick Miami to lose it Virginia Tech is actually pretty decently tough team they also run the ball well had a really good season last year they're taking the baby steps coming back to what they used to be this is a really good team not the beam team of old but a tough team blackburg really tough place to play at night but it is in Miami they're coming all the way South it's going to be hot it's going to be humid Miami's offense is running hot I have Miami also winning this game and then Saturday October 5th we have at the Cal Golden Bears Cal's team that they were actually averaging like 220 yards on the ground last year they do have a running back coming in had almost 1500 yards last season they can run the ball they're very phys physical team but if you're a run heavy team you are actually running into the strength of the Miami team which is their dline that linebacker core they're going to be getting after you to me they're going to shut that down you're going to have to be able to beat them vertically through the air but Miami is going all the way to cow that's where things could get a little odd because this is a new team to the ACC Miami has to go all the way from the southeast all the way to the West Coast so they could have some jet lag but I have Miami winning it I have Miami beating Cal that's going to put them at 6 and0 then they have a well- earned bye-week and then Saturday October 19th at the Louisville car knows Louisville was one of the teams that beat Miami last season Miami they always have a let down game at some point I think this is going to be it it's either going to be here or Virginia Tech they're going to slip up Mario's God AF will coming off the by weeks pretty much if they're coming off the bye they almost lose every single bye I have them losing this game in an upset although Louisville is a good team probably going to be a top 25 team I have them dropping this one but it's going to be a close one it's going to be like a 28 27 some type of odd game game like that but they're six and one Saturday October 26th Florida State seminal Miami is riding what a fouryear losing streak versus the seminal obviously Florida State went undefeated during the regular season last year but they had a complete turnover with this team almost every single starters gone breaking in new guys now they are all highly rated four and five star guys that they recruited as well as broughten through the portal these is going to be a tough team this obviously going to be a ranked team maybe even a top 15 team they're going to be tough they're going to have a good defense norell has his team coached up but I think this is Miami's Year Cameron Ward versus dju Cameron Ward's the better quarterback not a knock on dju but he's just a game manager I think Cameron Ward is a Difference Maker I have Miami winning this one and I actually think it's going to be like a 35 to 24 35 27 game and Miami's 7 and one and then Saturday November 2nd Duke Blue Devils this game is in Miami Miami really wants to get back at Duke but don't forget who Duke's new coach is Danny Diaz so you know Duke's going to have a good defense they're bringing over I think it's Murphy the transfer quarterback from Texas they're going to have a decent offense they're going to have a really good defense and it's a personal game it's personal to Miami it's personal to Manny but I think Miami obviously with Duke breaking in a new coach they just don't have the roster depth Miami is going to beat them pretty handedly and Miami's 8 and one Saturday November 9th at Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets who can forget the Georgia Tech game from last season that was pathetic Mario refused to kneel they lost loost the game but it's history now it's over all that you can do is hope to learn from it hopefully Mario knows if it's a onep possession game there's 10 seconds left just take the knee I have Miami getting revenge on this game winning it pretty handedly although Georgia Tech's not a bad team King's a really good quarterback they won eight games last season but I have Miami winning this one probably going to be like a 40 to 20 game and Miami is nine and one and then they have a bye week we all know Miami lose is coming off the buy but I actually have him winning this time Saturday November 23rd Wake Forest Demon Deacons I have Miami following up the buy finally breaking the buy demon streak here and beating the Demon Deacons it's like it was set up made to be they're at home wake Force obviously there's no Sam Hartman so they have no offense Miami is going to beat them they're 10 and one can Miami finish the season with 11 wins they've only had one 10- win season in the last two decades Saturday November 30th at Syracuse Orange this is one of those games Miami usually drops the fiding hot they're not paying attention they lose the last game of the season Syracuse a completely new team they've been working the portal Kyle McCord will be coming in as the quarterback supposedly he's been looking pretty good but we know what he was last year with the Buckeyes with all those weapons I have Miami finally finishing the season on a high note for once beating Syracuse pretty handedly um and they're finishing the regular season 11 and one this is the year for Miami lot of high hopes for them they could easily let down like we mentioned earlier Vegas has them at 9 and a half wins I have them finishing the regular season 11 and one I'm kind of setting myself up for failure here cuz Miami always disappoints they never do it if they go nine and three that's a really good season but you have to be disappointed with the amount of seniors on this team and with the best quarterback Miami's had since dorsy and uh potentially the best running back that Miami's had since what like Mark Walton or like a 2017 2018 season it's been a long time Miami hasn't had had a 1,000 yard running back in like seven years Martinez is going to get it they have the depth they have Fletcher they extremely have the depth at tight end wide receiver their offense is going to average to me 38 to 40 points a game their defense should probably only give up 19 to 20 they'll have a top 10 or 15 offense and potentially a top 25 defense but that's my prediction for our 2024
