This College Football 25 Dynasty Rebuild Fixes the Miami Hurricanes

it's time for my first college football 25 rebuild featuring the University of Miami that's right the hurricanes have not won a title since 2001 and this video is brought to you by the EA Creator Network now with us using Miami this rebuild will stop the moment we win a National Title and not a second sooner one of the craziest things to me in this game is that you have 520 different heads you can choose from for your coach so coach murv MC murin has got a little gray hair now and we can also say that a 55 400 lb it's been a while since his playing days when it comes to the customization of your coach you can basically Rock two different types of shirts a PO Polo or a sweater so here's your look at the polo and there's your look at the sweater not a ton but there's at least a lot of like head customization I do like though for your actual coach when you're creating them you can choose a lot of different stuff your offensive and defensive playbooks the alma Mo that you would have been at the pipelines these again are region based not State based now more of that a little bit adaptive AI how they actually play your no huddle style offensive and defensive aggress and if there's like a decent amount here and again for your appearance just your head and your physique are what you can customize and before you actually sign your contct track you get kind of a look at like how good your school has been over the course of years you can go back to 2004 again 20 years is how far you can look back and you can kind of go through and to see the ups and downs of the school where they've been at the last couple of years since 2018 not really that great one of the first things you can do with your coach is kind of figure out where you want to spend your ability points I think for a lot of people spending them in either the recruiter uh the tactician or the motivator are going to be your best bet so I know that Miami is going to have a great quarterback to start but we're going to need somebody quick so we're going to go ahead and spend the only five points we have on quarterback take less time to fully Scout let's go to scouting one of the first things I can tell you when you're doing recruiting is don't focus on guys that are kind of all over the board from a stage standpoint you want to kind of come over here and look at their interest and their stage you want to be in sort of a top three or top five window i' like to go through here and look at interest first so if you can get guys that are in the top three top five from an interest standpoint that's great there's a lot of guys here that are interested in this as their number one school and you can see their star ratings right beside it you can also press y or triangle if you're on Playstation go all the way down here to interest in school and you can do top three top five top top eight top 10 any if you want to you can also sort by minimum star rating so you can say Okay I want guys that are at least three stars and I want them to be top five in interest go ahead and search that and then they will immediately give you a list you can pull from right there the other big important thing you have to do before you really start adding people to your board is look at your team need section so if you click the right stick you can kind of go in here and say okay from a quarterback position since that's red uh we've got a senior and a junior we need basically two more guys to bring on our board uh from a wide receiver standpoint I need to left guard Right Guard you can click LT or L2 uh to see again more here we need one left end a couple of defensive guys here like you want to focus on your kns because if you don't have them your roster can take a hurting oh and also don't forget special teams you're going to need to get some people there too one more important thing to look at is pipelines since you're doing Regional scouting pipelines are wildly important your pipeline rating can go from basically nothing to up to a five and the higher that rating is the better when you're competing against another school and you're putting in sort of the same effort and the same level of interest from that Prospect if if you are a five-star Pipeline and they're only like a onear you're going to absolutely shred them in recruiting but if it's flipped and you're going up against a team that has significantly higher of a pipeline interest you're going to have to really go down and put in a lot more work your initial passive recruiting can't really do a lot so you can basically come in here and offer them a scholarship in the first week and you can actually Scout them so we're going to look at quarterbacks we have the ability to recruit them in a quicker amount of time than it would be normally so it takes us two clicks we found out that we have a gem right off the bat now we can see above his mentals are team player and head strong he's got abilities of magician option King extender and off platform those can change but his actual mentals cannot looking at his ratings so power accuracy speed are all really good he's a four star with a gem which means that he's actually going to be more of a five star than a four star so this is actually a really good Prospect for us to go ahead and offer a scholarship to we can do that and you repeat that process until you're done with your board a lot of people are also asking can you have instant commits and recruiting as you can see in the screen Mr Voss already went ahead and recruited a lot of people are also going to ask can you have an instant commit when your recruiting yes instant commits are in the game Voss already went ahead and signed one of my favorite screens in the game is you can actually see what players are risk for transferring so for example from a playing style standpoint we can see that we've got a decent amount of people looking to transfer potentially at the end of the season for playing time we can also see that we have a tight end is the only guy right now that's frustrated but games haven't started yet and if at any point you want to actually go in deeper and figure out well I actually care about that player how do I actually get them to sa let me tell you how so here for example we can look at playing style we can see that we have our right tackle is kind of our main guy that really wants to go ahead and transfer so all you need to do is hold this down and then move down to your offensive tackle section and you got to basically look at okay are they a pass protector are they a power style offensive tackle an agile style of offensive tackle you kind of need to figure out which one they are by going to their actual player card and then when you know that it'll tell you okay rushing yards per game that has a high impact in them wanting to be here uh you're the same thing for power and then you're going to look at pass protector that'll be sacks allowed so you want to ensure that you're kind of catering to that particular play style for that player if you want to let the chance of them leaving your school we're about to hop in our very first game and I'm excited cuz look Damen Martinez is a stud from Miami they've got Bane who's only a soft more like we have some guys you can actually do some things with camore though this is the time to maximize him right now because after him I think we're dipping into the transfer portal and wide receiver though Restrepo and George our top two guys are both seniors and we have a sophomore freshman sophomore so there is potential here but I do think though being Miami the transfer portal is going to be huge and I always like to try to see how my second area is really only one senior here that's probably going to end up you know obviously leaving everybody else is probably staying at free safety pretty young there not super highly rated at strong safety a senior with some sophomores underneath that aren't too far off so I do think though this team is poised for like a two to threee run our first game is going to be at Florida this is a rivalry game at benh Hill Griffin Stadium and I'll be honest it's kind of a test I know that Florida isn't the Florida of old but are read the Miami a vote either all right what do km Ward got here the 12th toughest place to play in all the college football right now this is a big test for Miami cam Ward oh I like what he's got a little bit of a late throw here a nice play by Martinez getting a touchdown on the first drive would be massive but like I don't even know if our guys know what play they're actually running here underneath though we're getting right back to Martinez I like the spin move doesn't go anywhere right back out here again you can't even really see the wide receiver icons things are getting spicy though first possession in the Red Zone all season long oh c WS got it I think C WS takes it to the house this going to be close he's out at the three at the one Damen Martinez is a huge part of this drive we're going to try to let him cap it off here with the touchdown and he's going to walk in and give us the lead Flor has had a really good game and they're coming back here trying to just stop us at this point we've got an opportunity to try to tie things up little check down Charlie never hurt anybody we'll take the first down cam is going to bring Martinez back over and he's had a really impactful game today can he continue it nice juke move he's got some room he'd love to see it cam W back out here he's got a guy going across the middle of the field as nice catch but unfortunately he can't keep it running camart has been absolutely on fire so far this game he's going down the field it's going to be close and that one's dropped big second down we obviously want to tie this one up before half cam Mor escaping a little bit that was really close to being a sack staying back in shotgun cam W stretching it a little bit sees the guy turns him up the field he's going to try to get it to him and they get in the End Zone Miami is going to tie this game up barely any time left though right now Florida is on the goal line trying to trying to extend this lead and they do just that Miami did get a field goal but Florida again is still cooking right now so it's really up to us to try to see if we can get something on this drive a crazy close pass did he catch that they say he did Florida has been really good again this Miami team people thought maybe this is a year that their back it's not looking like it at the moment cam W again using his legs to continuously extend plays and get out of bounds Miami needs a touchdown here to close out the third quarter cam Mor again plenty of time this is close to being intercepted Miami again sees the pressure across the middle it's an absolute dot by camore but it's broken up the kicker can't make it from here but it's not exactly the easiest one camore is going to dump it off to his running back Martinez has been so good in this game and he continues to carry the squad start of the fourth Quarters here cam Ward goes to the RPO and he goes nowhere keeping him moving there is some pressure cam again using his legs throws one in it's too shallow a big third down a field goal isn't the end of the world it would put him down eight which means it's still possible but it's not what they wanted what a play by number one on Florida so Miami is going to settle for a field goal here this one feels like it should be good that when is up it is good the lead is cut to eight but can the defense stop 2631 Miami right now just fighting for the lives trying to see can they get something going and Florida brings an all out Blitz on the screen second down for Miami camore is going to find Restrepo a nice block here he's going to help him get the first down he's loose now when he gets an even bigger gain pressure is on right now a little bit over 2 minutes that was a close one and Horton's going to drop it board handing one off to Martinez this time he's looking so good right now in the Run game and he continues to get first downs camore continues this fast-pace offense going doesn't really know what receiver he can throw to here but he's going to get out of bounds again for the first game of the season to be this highly contested is just insane oh this is a risky oh and it's going to be thrown we didn't see him there the Florida DB is going to go to the house and ladies and gentlemen Miami's first game of the season is an now Miami might have a little bit of Hope here with a minute left they're down 12 they're trying to get something going cam Mor again has been a magician all game long he goes up the middle to now cut this lead Miami is still in this ball game good news is Miami is going to have all of their timeouts can they make this work it's looking like a lot of fumble happens the answer is no and Florida could hold on to this one and look Miami gave it the raw but it just was not enough Florida came out here with a fantastic game plan and they take us down in game one shout out to gr Merz this dude Bal out 255 two touchdowns 81% completion rate he had the answer all game long after the game we did earn like 20 coaching points and a lot of things unlocked there so we're going to go ahead and make it that recruiting actions have a bigger impact on quarterbacks increase the weekly hours for quarterbacks as well to make that a little bit easier uh I think we're we're also going to look at sort of wide receivers so wide receivers and tight ends take less time to Scout and then we're also going to look at offensive line they should take less time to scout all of that will go a long way to help out this rebuild while the season might have started off a little rocky we did end up getting I think our quarterback of the future and Alfonso bias along with him we also brought in corner M rosi and it keeps on going cuz Left End Kevin SSA is also coming to Miami did I mention Marshall aers is also coming at outside linebacker Darren carway defensive tackle riim Griggs who we'll talk about in a second is super fast and wide receiver that all wasn't super great because while we did land six different people in one week cuz we had a lot of people come in this particular week we still did not get Alejandro Hall who was a gem of a prospect at defensive tackle he decided to go to Florida I wonder why well we definitely have our quarterback of the future I think in Alonso bias the guy that we're hoping to land is Kon Jones because this is a five-star running back that we're competing with Tennessee and Clemson on when you have a recruit that you've been recruiting for a while you can see on the bottom right list we've got pretty much everything except for playing sty and proximity to home figured out you kind of want to go to the next stage and that is basically scheduling a visit so for us we have our bye which doesn't really help us out a ton but helps out a little uh you have week nine at Florida State which is a big game a big win or big loss can obviously hurt you or help you uh we play Duke we have a bye and we have Wake Forest of these I kind of need to make sure we hit home we need to beat Florida state they're also one and four in the year I like our chances so when you select that you want to do a visit you go in and you figure out okay what do I want to do we have Championship Contender which is kind of a main thing we can look at right now that would be an A+ we also could do prop potential at an A or program Tradition at an a you're also going to have no more than three check marks for recruit so once you have three check marks you know that the rest of those playing St and proximity home are going to be X's so Championship Contender is our top one we're going to go ahead and click on that one give us the best possible chance of get in this guy locked in the other thing I recommend doing is that as you've been recruiting each week these things kind of stay unless you remove them and a lot of people don't know how to remove them simply hold down y or triangle for your own PlayStation and that will basically remove those uh and why we're removing those is because we want to add an action of a hard cell when you're kind of getting a guy to the stage of top five and you're sort of in battle with other teams focus on doing a hard cell if you know what is three check marks are if you don't know what his check marks are you can go over to Soft Cell but in this case we go to hard cell and you're going to be moving around to kind of see okay we want to line up on those three things he has as a check mark of Championship Contender Pro potential and program tradition uh and then for this I would say most of the time you're going to be able to find something that covers all three just got to move around and you can see here that we go for the strategy of football influencer that will give him those three things that we're all really good at we will select that as his option and then above those on the top right you have a 40 out of 60 that means how many hours we can spend in him per week I've got a bunch of hours left so we're going to go ahead and add in uh for 20 more hours we can't quite get there but we can do this which will give us 15 and now he's got 55 of the 60 maximum hours we feel pretty good when you're run into an instance like I am right now where you actually don't have three things you can actually check off like he has proximity to home as an F which is probably going to be a check mark for him this something that he cares about we can't really help him out there we don't want to do a hard cell we want to go to a Soft Cell but another option you actually have is going to try to sway them so for example here uh we can look at a lot of different things that he has Pro potential he's not really caring about but we're in a there I feel like that gives us an opportunity to say look man you could be Sunday bound so we're going to try to sway him on that and then again we're at 35 out of 60 hours which means uh that we can actually add the family and friends or friends and family in to give us a maximum of 60 out of 60 hours and that's important because right now we can see that while we are in first place we have a visitor locked in Oregon is kind of moving ahead they have a pipeline tier which we have no pipeline here cuz he's out of Oregon so we've got to be very careful or else we could lose this five-star left tackle and the big signing before we head into our Florida State game is that we get cayon Jones the five-star running back that we desperately needed I know there was a lot of concern about people maybe potentially transferring because of playing time or playing style well those all seem to be alleviated we are top 10 in the country now and it is almost time to play Florida State and from a top class perspective we're doing really well we are now sitting at number nine in the nation uh we have five four stars one five star seven three stars right now like we have definitely had a really good recruiting class entering this Miami Florida State game feels so much better than the beginning of the season going to Florida we were on hostile territory we couldn't do well and Florida state is a team is three and four we're 6-1 3-0 in conference winning this game is a big deal picking up late here in the first quarter camore trying to get this squad going nobody scored Florida State went three and out on their possession so now time to see what we can do here a big opportunity cam War's going to scramble out of this one hits him with a spin move he's going to get the first down camard learned a lot from that first game and he's putting a lot of that to the test right now A man over in motion throws one here to his halfback is a little bit behind him and he drops it Fletcher in running back here wo is going to take that one out he going to hand it off here throw it over to Trader and Trader's going to score to give us the lead moving on to the fourth quarter Florida state has the lead 20 721 this is going to be a tough one right now for cam ward in the squad can they actually come back down six W is going to throw a DOT here and a royal is going to pick that one up for a first and Miami not exactly in a rush here they don't need a score ASAP but I mean cam W picking up what should have been a first down Martinez getting the carry here he's been so good this season easily gets that first down tries to truck a Defender and kind of gets flipped Miami methodically moving down the field ticking away at the clock cam Ward again just constantly feeling pressure connecting with his guys left and right Martinez is going to try to go over the first but can't quite get there Martinez did get the first but obviously couldn't get in the end zone there first and goal FSU had an injur in the last play Martinez is in the end zone that is going to give Miami the lead assuming the extra point goes in Miami's feeling pretty good Florida state is driving right now they're trying to get themselves Back In The End Zone it's going to be an interesting one to see what they can do a nice pass across the middle here it's going to get them just shy of the first down marker second to short Florida State moves the man over motion looks like a little halfback move here he's going to try to get to the edge and he just quite can't but he's inside the 15 Miami again trying to play for the pass they go with a run here and that one goes for about three or five this has been a really long drive by Florida State Miami's players are absolutely gassed right now they go right back to the Run CU it's been so effective and they have first and goal Flor say knows they can take the lead here the running back looks for a gap has nowhere to go but they say there's a flag on the play I think this one is actually going to be a penalty on the offense and they call it on Florida State which is huge Miami fans are going crazy at the moment they go with a little RPO our guys aren't ready for it and Florida State takes a lead with under 2 minutes left Florida State going to line up here they're going for two they want to try to make this a seven-point game they throw a nasty Post Corner and that one is a DOT Big Time rivalry game the big time finish coming up a nice throw here by cam W but it's going to be a little underneath and his guy drops it cam Mor might have to be using his legs a little bit here and the pressure gets to him before he can really do anything Miami desperately needs something Florida state has just been putting pressure all over the Field cam W trying to get the first down has plenty of room he's going to smartly get down the question is if Miami can score did they play for overtime or do they try to actually go for two and just win this game I think as much as Miami might want to go for two though this is a team that is top 10 in the nation they want to make sure that they absolutely do what they can to hold on to this lead and go into overtime and play it smart huge third down eight yards to go camart again they're dropping so many backing coverage he's got that wide open all day clock continues to move they do have a decent amount of time here that one's thrown into traffic and it's picked off Florida state is going to hold on and pull off a potential upset unless Miami can do something on defense it all comes out of this Miami he going to watch them kick the field goal I believe we hit the kicker too adding injury to insult you hate to see it Miami is going to lose a big one being top 10 in the nation Florida State who has underperformed all season long they're guys got healthy at the right time and they're going to win a huge rivalry game to make Miami have those Championship hopes kind of go away despite the loss I think people are really believing in Miami right now we move from number nine to number three we have three five stars six four stars 12 three stars like I'm feeling good about what we have despite a couple of failures this season though Miami is going to hold on and they are win this even though Syracuse is getting a touchdown here a very big game which they were facing number 13 Syracuse at their home stadium this will help them out a little bit come rankings and a big shout out to C W again continues to dominate this year 250 plus yards three passing touchdowns he's been the player of the game so many times in Miami wins the best possible news for Miami though was they invited to play North Carolina in the ACC Championship game in week one I didn't know if we were going to be able to make it because of all the things that have happened but this is great in terms of how we match up with UNC I feel decently good we score more points per game passing yards per game are pretty much similar rushing yards per game we actually when we take a look at the college football playoff we actually have a really good chance to make a run here right now you can see the UNCC is placed in as the number three team or the number three seed because they're projecting them to win the ACC Championship if we beat them which I think we have a chance that's going to be us if we're going to win though it's going to be with camard leading us 3500 pass yards 37 passing touchdowns only eight interceptions he has been absolutely fantastic as as Damen Martinez and C W on the ground nearly 500 yards rushing with four touchdowns I feel like these two have been a really good one-two punch and we need to rely on them big time and this is why we're here to play the ACC championship trophy not only is it the great trophy but it's a chance to play for the college football national championship in the first ever 12 team playoff we need this win cam more getting the offense going right here setting a Man in Motion little play action they got a blitz coming across the backside cam throws a crazy one and rreo is there to grab it big time players made Big Time plays that's exactly what we saw on that one there nice little check down here to Martinez who's been great tries to double Juke though and he goes pretty much nowhere after cam W staying on fire nice pass here for the first down we'll take that RPO cam sends a Man in Motion trying to turn the corner it's Martinez again not the fastest running back in the world around 88 speed the crowd looks kind of split across the board right now not seeing a ton oh no cams in trouble and he goes down you focus on the crowd too much the next thing you know you're messing up this is a little scary that one is batted away luckily is not picked Miami's first drive ended up being a punt but now unc's got the ball in pretty good territory they've an opportunity to try to put points in the board first and their quarterback is going to go down big sack Paws if needed a lot of people are talking about this Miami offense with the defense has honestly been really good this year forcing turnovers keeping teams in check but we got to stop this run game this is a big moment here UNCC has The Rock can they do anything another one his mother's favorite play a big sack the quarterback goes down so UNC is going to line up here for a field goal fourth and 19 kick it from the 26 this one is up this one is going right but ends up being down the middle UNC takes the first lead Miami has been driving cam ward has been killing it right now uh you're also seeing the Traer scored an earlier touchdown he's trying to see if he can get one here cam War goes right to him and it's off his fingertips in traffic cam knows he's got a big opportunity here a 143 getting points the board here is massive but he's not really goingon to have anybody to throw it to and gets rid of it getting here in the red zone Cam's got some room here can he extend for the first down it's going to be close they say it's fourth in inches and UNCC uses their first timeout unc's got a pretty heavy front here Cam's going to get rid of it that one's going to go to Horton and Horton is going to walk in the end zone a little late hit there if you ask me but that's a major TouchDown for Miami and with time winding down UNC is down to their final play this game is Out Of Reach they're just trying to do something maybe for Vegas at this point this one is going to be thrown Deep In The End Zone picked off by Stafford who's going to grab that one and that's all rot for North Carolina Miami has needed something like this winning the ACC Championship is big for them but getting into the college football playoff the guaranteed top position is fantastic and speaking of fantastic cam W the numbers don't lie and there it is the ACC championship trophy is going back to Miami thanks to Kore thanks to Martinez thanks to the rest of this defense you saw out there as well Miami is feeling pretty good about their game today but the season isn't over and if you want to know a big reason why Miami end up beating North Carolina it's because of the defense in Marley cook three sacks eight tackles four tackles for loss a grown man out there despite all the success we had the heis and winner is going to go to Oregon's Tran Holden who has 1200 yards and 14 touchdowns the nation's best running back actually goes to Damen Martinez the rushing yards aren't great at only 87 with 13 rushing touchdowns but he was huge in the receiving game too with that Miami is going to go ahead and clinch a college football playoff spot we are the number eight seed looking at a number four Oklahoma State I'm not mad at that at all after beating North Carolina and feeling pretty good about ourselves we have confirmed a spot in the college football playoff we are play we are facing in Oklahoma state which is not going to be easy cuz they've got a really good player the college football playoff bracket as a whole saw Utah end up beating Kansas State they are now going to be facing the number one seed Texas A&M Oklahoma State again beat Sam Houston so now we are facing them on our side and then we also saw Michigan lose to Virginia Tech Virginia Tech now facing number two seed Oregon Alabama ends up uh losing to number 11 Texas Texas is now going to be facing Texas Tech so a lot of really intriguing matchups with some teams that definitely could be winning their first national title if not ever in a long time and this is what everybody's playing for right here we want another trophy back in Miami it's been since 2001 23 years later can this be the run that Miami has to get a national championship yet again picking up here early in the game right now it's uh looking a little dicey our Squad down a little bit and they got to go a long way both teams are kind of working through some nervousness you can say right now in this game and is absolutely showing but what is not showing is Traer slowing down as he's trying to run away from the Defenders it's going to be close he's going to get brought down inside the 15 what a play just like that the squad is out of deep territory and they are now knocking on the doorstep with martinez up the middle cam Bo hands this one back off this one's going to go up the middle and Martinez is in the end zone saying that's why he's the best running back in the nation okay state does struggle a little bit on offense they give the ball right back to us and here is Miami try to get more points in the board and cam Mo tries to step up and they are not having it giving this ball back to Martinez he was so important on the previous drive he runs off to the left side and fights for his bread down to the 11 yeah Martinez might not quite have the yards people were expecting someone to win best running back but this dude has been so good this year but he's stopped on a third and short Miami is going to opt to go for this one right now they know if they can get another touchdown here extend their lead it's massive and look at Martinez showing the vision and he's down to the one first and goal from the one Martinez is over the pile and he's in the end zone that's what you want to see okay state has the ball here in the first and 10 they're going to hand this one off and we got to see if we can get a stop here and oh they have nowhere to go what a shutdown and in major news we actually found out that Oly Gordon has a PCL spring and he's out for the entire game that is a massive blow to Oklahoma State this fall is going to be hand off again Oly Gordon out with that PCL spring it's not looking good for them third and 17 Bowman doing his best to try to make something happen here they go with a little check down Charlie play rpos aren't working Miami sees them all the time and they're going to stop this one with no Aly Gordon in the game right now Oklahoma state has somehow battled back to make it a 24 to 21 game but ay is going to get himself down inside the 20 to give Miami a shot to take the lead kward has definitely struggled this game under 150 yards passing so far two interceptions to just one touchdown this has not been the cam war that we're used to seeing we're going to hand this one off to Trader a little jet touch pass and that one's going to get us about four yards second and six camart again doing his best to try to find something checks this one down that one's going to be dropped though by Martinez and a major opportunity for Oklahoma State here they could stop us here and force what would be a field goal instead of having to deal with a touchdown Which would give us a lead back and on Fourth and two this is going to be a field goal coming up Miami is actually going to opt to not do the field goal here looking to see if they can get something to the edge cam MO is going to deliver one and Horton here a who is in The End Zone Miami has the lead back here in the fourth quarter though Oklahoma State once again is tied it up and Miami is needing a big Drive Martinez up the middle makes it third and nine but that's not what they needed C going to switch things up here he's going to keep this one tries to go up the middle and he's down at about the 2 yard line line after Martz was out or Martinez is out for a couple of plays he's going to come right back in here on Third and goal needing the touchdown and he gets that to give Miami the lead again Alan Bowman has been fantastic a little over 300 yards he's just completing pass after pass not really making too many mistakes I don't believe he's turned the ball over once so far dot across the middle again Bowman is lighting up Miami's defense almost zero resistance Miami's defense is just so tired at the moment but a lurk here he's going to get the interception maruga is going to go all the way potentially to the house here if he does this feels like it's all she wrote not the fastest players on the field but it doesn't matter Miami could be moving on and the best formation of football is the victory formation that is going to officially run the clock out and Miami is going to win the Fiesta Bowl in advance in the college football playoff only question is now who's next Damen Martinez three touchdowns 29 rushing attempts 109 yards you can kind of see why the wear and tear is impacted him today and what everybody came to see the fiesta B trophy is going back to Miami that's not the trophy that they won I know that oi Gordon getting hurt was obviously a big reason why Miami was able to win this game today but in the time that he was in the game six attempts 18 yards three yards per carry Miami's defense did their job off next for Miami is going to be the Utah U are not going to be an easy out by any stretch and then breaking down the rest of the bracket Utah again beating number one seed in Texas A&M there's a huge win for them uh we ended up being Oklahoma State Virginia Tech beats Oregon that is not one that I expected to see only a touchdown for that game and then Texas beats Texas Tech by a single touchdown all these games were close except for one and that was Utah blowing out Texas A&M so we have caed for concern we' got the orange bow match up between the Utah Utes and this squad right here the Miami Hurricanes trying to get their first national title in 23 years let's see if they can do it Miami is going to come out with the ball first going to one of their favorite plays to run a little jet touch pass which at this point is going to go nowhere checking in on Martinez he seems to be pretty good but the offensive line still banged up in the previous week cam W again trying to quiet the crowd down a little bit might be trolling goes up the Middle with martinez is going to push a guy off to fight for the first down cam back to the play action here sees the guy going across the middle of the field latest Restrepo with a nice move Restrepo is going to keep it moving getting the first touchdown of the game what a play you don't heads down the field they're going to put a Man in Motion cam rushing and Company are trying to get on the scoreboard and match what Miami's done so far br's going to move back under Center here he's going to slide a man in motion puts him in the back field for the tight end looks like maybe a run they go right back to the runter having no success we're going to whiff on the tackle and Utah Is For Real a lot of success early on but all of a sudden things are looking not as easy Utah stacking the box now looks like they're looking for the Run see what rreo can do a huge play earlier intentionally he's getting jammed a little bit on the outside we're trying to have him go up and are you kidding me Restrepo just got that he all looks to be kind of stacking the middle they do not want to let up and anything as the winner of this game will play for the college football national championship Kim W has been so precise and good so far in this game beautiful pass here McCormack is going to take it in and Miami gets the lead right back we moving here to the third quarter right now things are looking okay for Miami a seven-point lead but it's not really much to hang your hat on at this point nice little Quick Pass here Royal is going to grab that one maybe gets three camard has four passing touchdowns already today he has just been again his usual self has been great he's going to get rid of one here to Martinez Martinez barely gets that and somehow gets the first down lost to two in the last play camard back to the play action he's got some potential options here he's going to try to get his guys down the field for some blocks and he does get a b nine most important thing here for Miami is moving the chains constantly and Martinez grabs five more Sho on the edge potentially could have some leverage here camart goes across the middle and that one is nearly picked off but dropped by the Miami guy which means we have to kick a field goal field goal is not exactly easy see if we have enough on this one it's going close and that one they say is going to be good so Miami is going to extend their lead to 10 what does Utah have in the tank now Martinez has been great today 86 yards in the ground looking though to get his first touchdown of the afternoon and runs over a Defender that's a running back of the Year and that rushing touchdown by Damen Martinez really just capped it off Utah couldn't really recover got in the end zone one more time but the orange bow is going back to Miami where right rightfully belongs things are looking good multiple trophies have been acquired but the big one that they want they still need to go get the national title trophy cam Bo four passing touchdowns today 290 yards through the air an unbelievable player and after everything Miami has been through this season that leads to 1 point and one point only Texas Miami two of college football's greatest battling for a national title they're both first in a long time the national championship trophy is officially here it's on the field it's either going to Texas or it's going to Florida one of these teams will walk out here today a national champion and restoring their legacy we're just hoping that it's us quen in the Texas football Long Horn is going to come out here with the ball first and they are trying to make something happen but look at this Miami defense both of these squads have been a lead and they have both battled back three lost teams in the college football national championship after battling through the first 12 team playoff ever in college football history is going to make a quick little adjustment here they go with a run one guy to stop him and look at Miami step up this ball is getting kicked and from a wear and hair perspective most of our guys are fine the offensive line is dealing with a couple of nagging injuries here and there but they should be okay get the ball to Martinez is the first cuz we got to set the tempo with a four- yd run Bo it again little play action sees his guy there's a lot of pressure there and What A Catch by Traer in traffic back to the play action it's been effective and the Texas defense is just too good third and 20 is not what you want to see so Miami comes out with what appears to be a bit of an impossible one but are you kidding me Trader holds on to that cam W really should have got more consideration for the Heisman Trophy no single votes throughout the year for the Heisman Trophy that feels like disrespectful third down is short needed to make something happen here look at this absolute drop in a bucket didn't get the last one but this one is going to work to a royal Miami strikes first in the national championship game Texas was unsuccessful a little bit earlier in the game but now they're back out here on the right side of the 50 trying to make something happen sending Man in Motion nice little wide receiver reverse going be a jet touched pass and it goes for about three second down to seven ooh the RPO we got no one over there he spins off of that we're going to try to get guys there and he's down at the 11 our guys trying to make sure they're locked up here this one is nearly intercepted I believe Isaiah Bond grabbed it Miami with their backs against the wall looks like a run here he's going to try to get to the edge he cuts up the middle and what a great run Texas is back with the tie of this game we pick up here in the second quarter about 3 and A2 minutes until halftime Texas has the lead they're driving again Miami seems to have hit a little bit of a wall That's adjustment they go with looks like a mountain swing pass this is a huge hit deliver to make it third and short backers getting pretty close to 100 yards rushing already and we're just here in the first half he's a 77 and Counting bringing a receiver over again they're going these quick little Outlet passes and we are getting cooked by him but what a hit at the goal line down here short yard situation another big hit but they gain a yard Tex lining up in the pistol they're going to slide a guy over again a nice little fake they go for the run and we knock him in Texas now has a two touchdown lead Miami is in trouble cward back in shotty sees his guy underneath a nice spin move but basically going nowhere third and three cord here in the pistol sees a guy underneath that is Elijah a royal who has been so big for the Hurricanes this year B Martinez the only guys in the back field again solid run look at Martinez getting Shifty with is going to find his way for a big run cam Ward quick to the line the blitz is there what a absolute drilling of a hit and cam Ward is going to still get up on that little bit of an injury timeout Texas again maybe they're using a little bit of something sketchy here this ball goes back to Martinez Martinez with a nice Cut is going to fight for his bread again six yards on that carry we have a pretty good feeling we can score a touchdown here but we don't want to give Texas too much time considering they do have all their timeouts but again a touchdown is a touchdown are you kidding me what a grown man hit but there is a flag on the play a nasty stiff armor is going to be off or not is Texas is going to have this moving back for our offense no touchdown on that play and the worsts there it actually stops the clock as well Martinez up the middle doesn't nearly get as much success third and N big third and N cam W he's been here before an unbelievable deflection by number seven Miami has to settle for a field goal here it is disappointing but at the end of the day points are points we desperately need them an 11o deficit assuming we give up no more points points should be just fine Miami has all their timeouts in the situation as well which helps them and oh my God wide open Elijah Royal there is a flag on the play we're hoping it's maybe a late hit on the quarterback we're not entirely sure but it's on Miami's offensive line again costing them points cost them a couple on the last Drive costing them more potentially here first and 18 deep in their own territory camore sees an opportunity to scramble he's going to go ahead and scramble Miami uses their first timeout this is a big one third and four the pressure is coming we get it right to a Royo a Royo is going to try his best to get out of bounds and he does a Royo has been such an X Factor in this game so far they're giving us these underneath yards we're going to fight and try to get the first down we're call another timeout here 8 seconds left Miami could get a field goal range here but they need something nice it's going to be close that one is going to be caught we're going to use the timeout this could be a field goal 58 yards not exactly easy don't want to over KCK it this one I think is going to end up being short and they say it's no good a tough one a great opportunity but we're going down 11 and a halftime the good news for Miami is they actually get the ball here at the start of this second half and we've got an opportunity to throw some Dots here oh my God Trader Trader putting in work on the moves can't wor trying to feel it and honestly the best thing right now is Texas's offense is going to be off the field for a while now they had an opportunity on the previous drive they couldn't get it back on the field because we had it for so long we'll see because the hope for Miami is that Texas is coming out here cold in the second half because we could absolutely use that and what a move by George George fighting for his bread inside the 10 already here inside the Red Zone Martinez cutting up going up the middle and that's a good run down of the two Martinez trying to get his team a nice little answer back but they stop him for a loss of one Texas feeling pretty good here in a third and goal Martinez trying to turn up and he does he's going to get to the edge turn in and this lead is now cut a whole lot more with the lead being what it is coach wants to go ahead and go for something at this point and that is not going to be good we wanted to get obviously the two-point conversion but it did not happen Texas continues to be cold right now they have not scored here in the second half and we are right back on offense trying to make something happen nice throw here to Damen Martinez Martinez getting to the edge fighting for the first down and he has another one as good as K Mor has been Martinez has just been that guy all season long a model of consistency and continues to put the team on his back all that being said Martinez only has 61 rushing yards today but he's been so effective but now the third and five cam W making a couple of adjustments here looks like a blitz is coming they throw one and it's what a pick what a pick by Texas Texas has the ball back and they avoid giving up potentially a field goal Texas goes three and out yet again and Miami back with the ball knowing they've got to find some way to get in the end zone and not turn it over cam more puts Martinez in motion here soft spot in the zone it's going to be Restrepo again finding a way to get it done there quar is winding down one of the last plays will probably see from it putting a Man in Motion Martinez holds on to this one we'll take four last play the third here cam W rolling out to the side sees his guy throws one oh Royo is going to be in there and Miami has the lead back Miami's been here before going for a two-point conversion and it has not worked but this one they could kind of desperately need cam is going to make a quick little adjustment here sees the guy throws it and Trader's going to hold that one in Miami now has a three-point lead going into the fourth quarter Texas with the ball knowing they need something on offense theyve been struggling to really convert something this half they haven't only think they've actually scored in the second half it's like a half X screen potentially coming up here we've got our guys dialed in and what a stop to make it third and eight this is a massive play right here kex is converted they have another three and out here in the second half which is pretty much all they've had a couple of drives here and there but it's mostly been three and outs a check down we have no one there the running back Cuts in the wrong way a big hit did they say he got it he did Texas brings a new running back in with their starter being pretty gas at the moment another run they try to get to the edge we got nobody really pursuing that side properly we go for this FRP it doesn't work and now they're inside the 20 Texas going back to the hurry up here they've got a lot of time their running back feeling pretty good again the backup has been electric our guys trying their best to lock in right now Miami backs against the wall a stop here is so crucial but the defensive and gets in the backfield third and long Texas knows they don't need to get all their points here but they just might and they do unbelievable Texas is going to walk in the end zone taking the lead back yet again Baxter obviously sat out for a while but when he came back in the game he was absolutely ready to go who was not ready to go that was Martinez as he loses for the big loss there Miami needs a little something cam Ward is going to find the most reliable Target he's had today Elijah a royal auro does have an increased risk of injury there his left ankle's been bothering him all game the wear and tear is huge for him at the moment but look at Martinez get four this drive for Miami is an important one you're down four but you can score and honestly not give them much if any time you can walk out here as national champions o f starting to chew the clock a little bit he's feeling good about where his team is at but Martinez just fumbled we kept it though one of the scariest things there Martinez does not have wear and te but he does appear to be pretty tired so we are going to go ahead and switch things up a little bit with him give him a breather on the runs because cannot afford fumbling again nice ball across the middle and George drops it on a possession catch last play before the two-minute warning this is a tough one and we might have just lost it I'm hoping there's some sort of penalty potentially on the defense but if not it might be AO for Miami Texas fans are going crazy to see what the referee say this is a critical moment of the game and it's looking like it's going to be on [Applause] Miami Miami thought they had one they were wrong it's it's not fully over for Miami there is plenty of time left in this game Texas seems to be pressing for some reason Restrepo might be the move here or oh we got we got lucky there is enough time though to get some stops that is what this team needs more than anything right now and they hold on to it let's go to the hurry up camore getting his Squad five wide this Ball's thrown deep he's got a chance he drops it this late in the game guys we got to hold on to that guys evolv so not got not a throw interceptions Texas is going to be national champions and just like that Texas will walk out of here national champions Miami the first year was fantastic cam W was great Martinez was great but a couple of late Force erors are we going to meet Miami is sad instead of being happy and there is Texas raising the national championship trophy Miami you got to do it in Year too losing the national championship game is heartbreaking enough but rreo is going to be gone he's a senior cam Ward's Gone alon's Gone on defense are stud defensive end we got a couple of guys that are also leaving as well that are high impact players everybody else you know there are some major players leaving but this top like six to S is going to be tough to replace in terms of the draft we get three players drafted Restrepo in the Third Ward in the fourth and maloa uh maybe is how you say his name in the seventh round our recruiting class is currently number Eighth in the nation we've kind of bounced between like nine and third I think for a lot of the season but the transfer portal is open and that's honestly the biggest news possible right now I mean there are some major players we could potentially go out and get maybe even a quarterback and when you kind of look at some of the major players that are in here Caleb Dallas is going to be transferring tario Davis is going to be out of here uh Matthew mcdom like there are some major names and potential high-end draft picks Isaiah Bond who just won a Natty in Texas say you know what I'm going to go elsewhere my mind is kind of blown right now because Jeremiah Smith is available and we're absolutely going after him in the transfer portal this is a stud D from Ohio State I don't know what happened over there to lose Caleb DS and Jeremiah Smith but we're trying to land him look at this guy's stuff right now 94 speed 96 acceleration everything is really good we're trying to get him we offered him a scholarship we're trying to schedule a visit pretty much in week one and what's great is he's actually from Miami Gardens Florida so we have a five tier pipeline uh interest from him which is going to be fantastic and I think what we're going to try to go after him is probably campus lify an A+ and actually we don't know if he cares about that so maybe we wait on the visit for a moment we just try to see we need to actually see what his stuff is so we're going to send the house at him and we're going to hope that we can land him all right so I'm panicking a little bit because we're looking at Jeremiah Smith and we actually went from like his top school down to number four which is not good news CU a lot of teams did better than this so what we're going to be doing here is we're going to go heavy on him in week number two we're going to schedule a visit for week two uh we know that he does like proximity to home so we're going to lean heavily into that and I think we're also going to change from send the house this is going to be this is so risky uh what you got to do is something here we're going to go to hard cell we're going to make sure that playing style is involved conference Prestige we can lean into but I feel like there's got to be Pro potential I think we're going to lean into that playing style proximity to home and pro potential we're going to hope that he cares about Pro potential which I would imagine he does and see if we can land him we have been doing some work in the transfer portal we did get Zion Turner from Jacksonville State to commit to us he's going to be probably in contention for being our starting QB Cedric Irvin another guy we ended up pulling in to kind of compete for the halfback spot and Jeremiah is coming to Miami this is the biggest thing I think right here the fact that we got him plus some of these other dudes and we got one other guy at corner we trying to ultimately get I feel good and while I feel really good about the three that we got we did not get Matthew mcdom who I was trying to get we made a late push for we didn't really see him in the portal but he chose to go elsewhere we actually found a little bit of a diamond in a rough here cran McCrae out of Ken State who just been sitting there with not a single piece of Interest or offer and we're getting towards the end of the transfer portal so I feel like he's a big move the good news is we also end this allseason M cran McCrae joining our team myy bomba we also get from BYU joining the team I feel like this is the best draft class in the nation or best recruiting class in the nation we did try to get Charles brandley in the 11th Hour it just ultimately didn't work out and I feel kind of disrespected because our recruiting class sits at number 10 in the nation you can't tell me this isn't the best in the nation I mean what's also crazy is Caleb DS went to Ohio State in real life and then in the game goes back to Alabama in the transfer portal kind of wild if we take a look at kind of what we ultimately Ned out with we got cayon Jones who I feel really good about uh Kiki North as an outside linebacker Germaine rigs I mean we've got a good amount of dudes across the board uh and when you just kind of look at how many four stars we ended up pulling towards the end of it it makes me so incredibly happy to see the depth that we got on this team and then just the transfers alone Jeremiah Smith cran McCrae Zion Turner a potential starting QB for us uh Cedric Irvin Mory bomba this is a loaded Squad now in terms of position changes we don't really have a ton to look at but I will give you a tip when you're in position changes you want to sort by position twice it'll put athletes up there at the top and you can basically go in uh and figure out where they're going to net out this guy doesn't seem to be super good like we're going to put him in Left End because we're a little bit weaker there actually we could put him at left out side linebacker CU we don't really have uh much there so we'll put him there just from depth chart perspective um but again when you're here you go by position you sort there twice now we've got again uh cayon Jones this guy could be a tight end didn't realize he could be a tight end could be a fullback could be a halfback you're saying he's a 78 if we put him in halfback and 82 overall tight end that was a little bit of a tough choice if you look at our tight end position he would be our starting tight end and I think at running back we're going to be fine uh Martinez is going to be back for his senior year we've got Fletcher right there I feel like we're going to put that man uh even with some of the guys that we got from the recruiting class we're going to put him at tight end so again you sort go in here we're going to put him at tight end and he's going to be the top dog maybe somebody has a better you know position training camp but he should be number one and speaking of training results a lot of our guys did really well uh what you can do in this screen is you look in the top right where it says Ruben Bane beside his name says he's a 95 that's what he was now you can see on the other side of the screen he's a 97 Martinez went from a 91 to a 92 a lot of our guys got better I want to look at quarterback uh Puffin bargar was a real one guy we had here him and Williams are both a 78 uh Jud Anderson also is going to be a 75 it's interesting your transfers actually don't seem to get upgraded here even though they were technically already playing on a roster uh so that is a little bit tough but I feel like overall this is going to be fine Borton is going to be our lead guy at 85 overall wide receiver is going to be a little bit tough but I think we have enough to really make things happen now we did have a massive recruiting class and transfer portal class so we have 103 people basically that we need to uh figure out what we're doing with so what I love in this game you can do is you can actually encourage people to transfer so you basically go through look at guys that aren't somebody you just recruited uh like for example Jud Anderson a guy that's not going to play I can encourage to transfer you can move those guys out of there we're kicking off the second season versus Syracuse a team that we you know had to take out last year but let's check out the rest of the schedule so as a number two team in the nation we'll face Syracuse Notre Dame UCF and number 18 Florida all at home which is a great way to start the year then we'll be traveling to ODU playing in home versus NC State and Stanford then at Florida State then home versus Louisville and then we finish the season with three Road games Pittsburgh Virginia Tech who's number nine in the nation and SMU and something to keep an eye out right now NC state has a Heisman Contender and Kevin concepion as a guy that we got to make sure we guard a quick look at our roster Zion Turner from Jacksonville sayate the transfer will be our number one guy he doesn't have quite the arm that camore did only 88 throw power but it is what it is Damen Martinez is back and we're going to have flescher Jr and Chris Johnson Jr behind him who's the fastest player on the roster a wide receiver is Isaiah hordon it's going to be Jeremiah Smith and cran McCrae remember how scary our wide receiver core was looking from like a not Talent deep perspective well getting Smith and McCrae boost us up a ton at tight end Elijah Royal will be the starter but you can imagine that cayvon Jones will get an opportunity to shine and I feel a lot better about our Corners right now uh deani Hill is going to be our starter we have uh Stafford we've got cotton we've got Andrews and we have elim all these guys should be contributing and we also have a lot of guys behind them that can play pretty well too at free safety we're going to have zaquin Patterson and then we're going to move over to strong safety where we're going to have Jaden Harris this feels like a very good defense we're higher rated overall than we were last year let's jump into the game oh and for those of you that want to know about Alfonso Bas which is our big guy that we looked at getting in the off season he's still in the roster he's just a freshman he's red shirted very talented but I want to give him some time yeah I got to be honest I cannot wait to see how this team is actually going to play so many new impact players a lot of guys that left last season I'm hoping we're still good all right at home in Miami let's see what this team has all right they knew we were running a read option all right third and 13 is honestly not where I thought we might be in our first one and oh boy we got some work to do Syracuse dig it in the end zone so we've got the ball and uh this offense ain't feeling the same see what our guys have here RP's always feel good Traer who was a big time player last year is going to step up and tie this game up that's what we need so we get a major turnover Force right now all of a sudden Miami's got the ball we tied the game up see what we can get here I'm absolute rainbow and a royal goes basically nowhere but we're inside the 15 Turner making a little adjustment here right where we want to be again he can move a little bit and Turner's going to step up and he's down at the one lining up here in the pistol Turner's going to hand this one off to the guy that knows how to get in the end zone Mr Martinez himself former running back of the Year reigning running back of the Year mind you Miami is continuing to dominate right now it is not looking good for okay just kidding Syracuse is uh taking this one to the house they're only going to be down seven Now Syracuse did tie the game up and despite that questionable interception we have gotten the ball back to a really good spot right now an absolute dot to Jeremiah Smith is going to give us a lead going in halftime some Kinks to work out but we're okay Syracuse is coming out here down 10 in the fourth quarter 5 minutes left they are trying to make something happen this quarterback throws a beautiful ball though off the Run Syracuse kind of enters the hurry up now going with a running back play here we're going to be able to get that one and then stop him at the line Syracuse has been wanting to run the football all game long but they're 19 attempts for 30 some yards of the starting running back that's never going to be something good they go with a run here though he's going to get a little bit more than the last time gets three big third down for them might be four down territory at this point they throw one and it's wide over top of the receiver fourth down and seven you got to imagine if we get the ball back that's all she wrote and we're going to bait him Brian's going to take that one can he do something with it he can move Miami is going to have the ball if Syracuse turns it over again at this point Miami is just trying to put the game away Jeremiah Smith mono imano on their top DB and he nearly comes down with it trying to keep this offense going he leave the running back open but we're only going to get about two yards off of it third down eight yards to go not exactly the best decision we could have made there and this is actually going to give Syracuse an opportunity to stay in the game Syracuse on the doorstep trying to get some pressure on the quarterback he throws one and it's absolutely picked off by Stafford that is going to seal this game it's a win for Miami y all beat a sloppy one a lot of new pieces we're trying to figure out but still you win your games that's all that matters and who else but getting the MVP of the game is Damen Martinez cuz he is that guy we're about to head into our big game against Florida the team that ruined the start of our season last year even though we made it really far uh but we have our big time recruit Bryce longa coming in this week so it's an important game this week is a big game because we're ranked number one and because we're going to be down here playing the number 10 team in the nation or number nine team in the nation Florida excuse me they actually are up in the media pole we got the ball pretty early we're starting to drive a little bit and we're just trying to see what that run game look like and right now Mr Martinez is looking solid he's still having a little bit of wear and tear issues you can see down there at the bottom so we're trying to make sure that he's okay but a lot of our guys are honestly a little cooked at the moment which is not ideal little catch here by Jeremiah Smith Turner All by his Lonesome in the back field he sees Jeremiah Smith he's going to go ahead and throw one to him this is going to be close and Smith has it go off his hands second down here do one behind him but Trader is a grown man way to catch that one and break a couple tackles Zion Turner's had a couple of issues but I think he's starting to gel a little bit with this Miami offense he's really figuring it out in it shows second down here nice pass McCrae getting inside of the 10 first and goal for the squad Turner rolling out a little bit looking for his guy dumps one off here Martinez nearly Gets In The End Zone this pretty heavy turn is going to switch the side of the play here see if he can get his guy in and Martinez is in the end zone yet again Florida really struggles on their Drive they don't really do much so the ball is right back in Miami's hands cross the middle you're going to find Jeremiah Smith making moves and Jeremiah Smith is in the end zone that's a special talent Florida yet again cannot do anything on offense they're two and0 in the year but it does not feel like it right now Miami is moving different and with Zion Turner really figuring out his role this offense is tough coach MC murin is going to opt to actually go for this one here he believes his guys and get it done he's got his running back wide open out of the back field Martinez is going to move a little bit down to the five first and go now Turner with a quick little checkdown turn to FS a little bit of pressure he's going to turn up the field gets into the end zone and the young fella is proven that maybe he's got a Heisman in his future and just like that Miami is going to keep routing Florida this is a game that was a whole lot different last year but this team now how they played week one versus how they played now against Florida in week four feeling a whole lot different that trophy is coming back with Miami this time and look at Zion Turner five passing touchdowns 300 plus yards nearly an 80% completion rate I told y Heisman might be in his future and while Miami is focused on this season right now Bryce longa for the future is actually going to be kind of nice we're about to end up facing NC State this week who actually just lost their first game against Pittsburgh so they fell from 6 to 12 in the media pole but Texas A&M is actually ranked a little bit higher than us they just had a beat down against LSU but I feel like if we win our game against NC State we're back at number one this game against NC State is a big one because if we can win this one it feels like it's kind of clear sailing to the conference Championship there's not really any big games left on our schedule which just kind of cruise past this one and you should be fine that's what we're ultimately hoping to do and Zion Turner is trying to lead us there Damen Martinez came back for his senior season cuz he wants that National Championship man I'm telling you he wants it they're actually saying we don't have I think Martinez might have actually got hurt we're going to actually we're going to let Fletcher run this one right here see what we can get Fletcher not the starter but gets enough for the first ling up here in the pistol Fletcher see what he can do okay not bad got a little second and four Jeremiah Smith is going to get lit up oh my God it's a hospital ball that brings us to a very tough third down going to trust our receivers and oh I think Trader got it they gave him the forward progress we actually haven't seen Martinez in the game in a minute so I'm kind of worried about his health a little bit but Jeremiah Smith has got a step on him can Jeremiah Smith get there it's overthrown that's definitely been a difficult thing for us right now I mean Turner is very good but it just he doesn't quite have the touch that cam W did last year and it shows Turner here on second and 11 throws one and that's to Jeremiah Smith who's at the one Smith has had a fantastic first drive really finding his way to this offense and feter caps off the drive with a nice rushing touchdown we got the lead and we ain't trying to give it back got a big play here the running back's going to be out of the back field quarterback rolling out and oh my God blanket coverage stops him so M sa picks up great yardage but they're really do much here they end up settling for a field goal to cut the lead to four St has kind of found their way and now that we look at things it's a little bit not where he wanted to be but oh a big throw out here to Jeremiah Smith and he finally takes the top off the defense a perfect throw to give us a lead right back I talked about this being a really tough test and it's showing NC state has rattled back and put a whole bunch of points on the board and make it 2714 the question we got to ask ourselves is are we built to come back from this game Martinez is back in the game looks like his wear and tear is over okay right now he set out enough of the game to really not be impacted but this is the do what we need in the game at all times Turner again finding his way nice little dump off fast here Trader's going to turn up for about six yards big third down for the squad this one gets out here to McCrae cran McCrae the transfer from Kent State he didn't get a lot of love there but he's getting all types of Love here five wide set up Martinez is going to line up your receiver he going to take this one you see him try to turn up a little bit Martinez getting some yards and he gets about 12 got our guys in a good spot Turner again moving sees a guy and that is a nasty interception that could have been anybody's Ball but instead NC State comes up with it but right back to our Run game Martinez rolling people over Squad needs something to summer going to get over here to Smith Jeremiah Smith the spin move goes nowhere but it is almost the first Smith has been pretty much all of our offense out here today but Chan McCrae is going to get us in the end zone and cut this lead big time after the defense gets an interception we've got the rock looking for something a nice pass here nobody on Martinez he's going to have an easy first down Turner again looking to find his guys underneath is open all day and McCrae is just an absolute problem for this defense second down will take the underneath all day Jeremiah Smith spinning his way to a third and short big time opportunity Z Turner knows he needs to convert for his Squad here the pressure he steps up Zion turn is going to step into the end zone and gets the touchdown and he St is out here trying to make a major play they've got an opportunity to take the lead back they're only down by one but things have not been the same for them since earlier in this game a great little run here they're going to try to get to the edge they cut it back inside and the running back picks up a first NC St is back to the hurry up they look to the line to see what they can do here with smon staying his shotgun Smothers is absolutely Gass you got to imagine they don't go to him they go to the tight end or the fullback instead Miami's defense is absolutely gas they've got to make a play here though for SES into the backfield a little QB keeper maybe a read off and he's going to be at the one things are getting tough they go with the Run they're trying to get to the edge and nowhere to go and he stayed again looking for something they have the ground game potentially but a stop again Miami at the one things are getting wild right now Miami again needing the stop they slide a guy into the back field again the quarterback's going to keep it and he can pitch it out on what looked like a speed option it would have actually been a triple option excuse me but just the excitement is crazy right now Miami gets a huge goal line stop for NC State kicking a field that is up that is not good and C state is choking Miami has the ball back with an opportunity to try to make some major plays here and Martinez has got to be a huge part of it Martinez has about 15 carries around 61 yards or so we're going to be chewing the clock a lot you can imagine on this drive clock under three minutes now they're backing off and you cannot leave McCrae McCrae is too deadly and too talented to be out there Damen Martinez needs one more rushing yard a tie for the most rushing yard so far this season in all of college football he's going to have more than that right here a great run by Martinez NC state uses the first timeout Turner again quiet in the crowd a little bit going right back to the run and look at Martinez fight for eight more yards second is short Martinez he's out there he's trying to turn the corner and put this one away and he's in the end zone the best playing football the victory formation that is going to seal the deal again NC State a top 15 team cannot come in and deow Miami they scored 27 in the second and that's all they scored today what a wild game Miami is going to finish the season undefeated the number one team in the nation and we are facing number four UNC it's just like last year we pick up here in the ACC conference Championship right now we have a 17 to 10 lead against number four North Carolina and we've got this man Mr Martinez making yards happen the undefeated streak on the line the chance for a national title to play for a national title is on the line too turn for 3,500 passing yard so far the season and would have had more had they not been pass interference big second down in an empty set Turner again all day to roam out to the left hand side at this point though Turner is really just trying to put this game away he's got his Squad they're playing well he knows that he could do something potentially he almost threw it down the sideline the left hand side but that would have been a bad throw big third down UNC knows they need something here but this man Zion Turner does not care and gets another first down Turner look so good in this game all of his throws have been money he's been linting up the defense he's making smart reads you love to see it we're trying to make sure that our roster stays healthy yet we win this game like that's really the main focus Martinez moving in motion here Turner's going to throw an absolute dot to a royal who catches it in the back of the end zone for a touchdown UNCC is staying locked in though they are only down Five Points uh our defense has not really been the defense we've come to see most of this year there are some questions second is short Turner again using his legs he's got plenty of daylight he's going to make sure he gets down you can see loading the box but it doesn't matter offensive line has been so good today and Martinez has just been running over defenders on only 15 carries Martinez is at 150 plus yards and he's going to go ahead and add a couple here plus another touchdown it might be all she rope UNC had a chance but again Martinez and Company were way too good in this afternoon a 15-point w in the ACC Championship bring on the college football playoff yet again and your player of the game is that man right there 212 rushing yards on three rushing touchdowns might be running back of the Year again individual accolades are always cool when coach murv MC murvin easily deserves coach of the year your Heisman Trophy winner for 2025 will be Connor Wegman of Texas A&M they had a really good year but he was 34 touchdowns two interceptions I see why and if there was any doubt the running back of the Year piggy backing on what he did last year 1,00 yards 13 rushing touchdowns and only 184 carries that's the best guy in the nation best defensive back is going to go to Jaden Harris of Miami three interceptions and 47 tackles and even the best punter Miami is different and in kind of a strange coincidence we're going to be matching up against UNC in the college football playoff we got to do it again so looking at the bracket UNC ended up beating Kansas City which is why they'll be facing us LSU fought against Liberty but Liberty wins which is why they're facing West Virginia and then Alabama loses to Nebraska and then you see Texas A&M beat Fresno State so it will be Nebraska versus Oregon Georgia versus Texas A&M so same teams different Stadium time to get things going here we are ready to show you and see that we are the superior team and last game was definitely not a fluke Zion Turner with a interesting pass that ends up being a DOT Turner has been so good this year yeah he's had a couple of issues here and there but for the most part this dude has just been electric this time he avoids the sack only to get taken down by the same dude we're trying to keep that perfect record alive though can we do it here again I don't know is that a roughing the passer potentially here I'm hoping it's a roughing the passing or will take pass interference equally as good so now a new set of downs ready to get things going a DOT here to Royal he's inside the five so Miami here on a little first and goal close but we got throw an incomplete pass second and goal Turner feels the pressure he's going to keep rolling and Turner is in the end zone this dude is lethal we find ourselves in the fourth quarter about 5 minutes left we have a one touchdown lead this game has obviously been a little bit more difficult than want the the previous one was but cran McCrae is different Zion Turner actually has a lot of wear and tear damage so we're trying to make sure that he's going to be okay so we're going to avoid doing anything really with him right now our quarterbacks behind him are okay but they haven't really had much game time and so we don't really want to risk anything like that and look at Martinez get himself they say out of the one I mean call me crazy but that's a touchdown in 49 states so this is apparently the only one that won't allow it Martinez comes out of the game Fletcher Jr comes in he gets a little bit of a garbage time BS for touchdown and we got a two tutty lead with a little bit of time left unc's driving again only down 14 an absolute beautiful ball that gets him down to the one they go to the hurry up the quarterback throws one and it's a DOT and all of a sudden this is back to a one-score game Turner gets a little bit of his health back at this point but I'm a little bit worried about him getting blitzed too much here so Martinez we're going to need him to do a little bit of something and he goes nowhere or go is to keep the clock moving going to keep UNC oh no oh no oh no okay they still need a touchdown but we just made it a whole lot easier for him we gave them the easiest field position of all time things are about to get spicy oh my God the blocking this is not good we got to hope that we can get some pressure on that quarterback a good stop in the back field 3D five an RPO we had guys there but he's just getting blocked we are absolutely in trouble right now a huge hit major hit things got even crazier though because they win for two which means that we are fighting for our lives we're trying the quarterback's going to get hit that's a huge one fourth and goal we ended up going ahead and calling a time out because we need our guys to have a little bit more time if something actually transpires he's out of bounds he's out of bounds we're okay okay we're not technically okay UNCC does have three timeouts so we're going to need to get a first down I would call this a scary situation for the number one team in the nation Martinez Martinez is going to go n i mean he could have wi 90 some yards but he goes huge oh my God and that puts us in the best formation possible we're going to keep our quarter back ight and safe we're going to walk out here with the six-point Victory this guy way too close for comfort UNCC in back-to-back games is a very tough opponent cuz they know what we like to run they know well enough we're moving on and for 2 years in a row the orange bows coming back home and after that wild game we're going to be facing the Liberty flames in the semi-final round win and we move on to the National Title yet again taking a look at how the bracket has broken down we beat UNC West Virginia loses to Liberty organ are beating Nebraska and Georgia beats Texas A&M we now have have the final four if we win it's on the national title picking up here in the second half of the Liberty Miami football game we are seeing what we got it right now but Liberty's hanging tight Miami desperately wants to get back to the national championship and have a chance to actually win it this season instead of what happened last year but it's not looking too easy and a fourth and one coming up fourth and one did they sniff it out oh my God they did Liberty is back Liberty is out here trying to do the unthinkable take down the the number one team in the nation and they've got a chance like they're making moves right now inside the Red Zone almost maybe we look past Liberty I kind of feel like we did but they're making numbers our guys are getting banged up right now this is not looking good we've got to lock in here Liberty goes for a quick RPO again second and three Suter looks throws across the middle and his guy catches it behind him what a catch and here they go on the goal line looking to get their guy involved we stop him short here they go again heavy goal line set a little bit of a halfback toss we're trying to get out there and we force him out of bounds to the four this is a big play we got to imagine they're going to the pass here and they are and it's caught for a touchdown Liberty has the lead we got a big important Drive in front of us we have to come out here and get a touchdown and then lock up on defense if we don't a national title is nowhere close crowd on pins and needles right now trying to figure out what's going on but we're going to have Martin wide open here in the flats and he's making big plays happen but he took a huge shot third quarter is winding down this Ball's going to be thrown beautifully to Jeremiah Smith who's out here in the middle of the field making plays happen Turner taking his time he's got some opportunities here though he's going to try to stretch this one and we're going to safely get down Johnson Jor is going to come in and spell Martinez just because that man was breathing kind of heavy and what a moved and moved us inside the 15 I mean we kind of question if Liberty was the real deal but I think they've proved that they are much better than we thought they might actually be but Martinez what a run Martinez needs one more yard to get 100 on the afternoon he can get a touchdown here needs some blocking got a guy to run over and he does just that Martinez is in the end zone and we got the lead back but can we hold on to it with the ball back we're in control we're trying to absolutely put a hurting on this team and look and Mr Martinez run an injury timeout is going to stop the clock unfortunately we're trying to chew this clock as much as possible but they are not trying to have it and look at Martinez can he stay in bounds he does things getting a little crazy here we're going to move a Royo over see we get an extra blocker we're trying to chew the clock and Martinez has the first down Li's defense has been on the field for a while we're actually spelling in Martinez this time with Johnson Jr excuse me that was Fletcher Jr coming in the game we're going to keep him in here again as we try to get the clock under three minutes now Fletcher is going to take this one potentially to the house ladies and gentlemen he's in there we've extended our lead if we give this one up I'm going to be sad 216 left in the game technically Liberty has four timeouts with a two-minute warning so we have got to be unbelievably careful Fletcher Jr back in the game 212 left nowhere really for him to run great defense by Liberty this is a major third and five they have one timeout left they say it's Fourth and inches no way he got the first down this is kind of wild we're going for it in our own territory 204 left that is the worst blocking I've ever seen they have the ball so Liberty has no timeouts but they have the rock with two minutes I just didn't trust our defense honestly with the way we just gave up some stuff and we continue to give up big plays little nervous at what's happening right now we get interception but s's going to get that one liberty has no timeouts we're going to walk out of here with a W despite sketchy play calling what an unbelievable game to send us in the national championship but the question is will we win will we lose just like last year we hope it's a different outcome for us and here we go Oregon Ducks versus Miami national championship game it's Boomer bus baby our second time playing for the National Championship in just as many years can Miami bring it home it's time to find out Oregon is known for a lot of things fastpac offenses defenses maybe not always is what they're known for but we're going to make sure we put them to the test today on the defensive side of things as Jeremiah Smith should have a big game Martinez getting a carry and they stop him in the backfield what a stop second and 11 here oh yeah Turner's going to make them pay you want to live give him some opportunities to run he will absolutely do it or can kind of load in the Box a little bit and Martinez is stop short I think we go for it I don't want to punt fourth and one we got our halfback wide open luckily he's got good hands and he caught that one he's making guys miss now what a move he's still going and he's out of bound smartly I don't know if anyone's been as reliable as Damen Martinez this dude finds the way to get it done every week second and eight that pressure is coming from that defensive line but look at croan McCrae get inside the three Turner's been great in this drive getting rid of the ball when he needs to but Oregon's defensive line is tough second and goal doing our best to find a spot but they stuff us again we don't want to be the Seahawks here we are going to try to go in three rushes in a row to see if they can stop us and they can we have marar ly for running them and we do get our first look at Dante Moore in this Oregon offense right now they are not easy at all we got to get a stop I think there's one real fear we have too is that we've been giving up leads a lot this season teams that should not be playing with this are keeping into the game especially late because our defense gives up huge sums L Moore again making a check here at third and five halfa out to the flats he gets hit and oh that could have been an interception they are going to line up for a pretty long field goal is dead center but this is going to be 55 yards which is not going to be easy here this one is up this one is Wailing right and it's going to be good what a kick draft that man organ does manage to get a second field goal after we can't really do much on offense but we've got the ball back and so are they scared Martinez again Martinez has a little bit of wear and tear on his ribs right now so we're going to try to give him a second to be a breather but again we're using this man he's got the Workhorse ability we're going to absolutely leverage it first down again a beautiful ball across the middle look at McCrae make a Miss he's inside the five for I believe the second time today offensive lines got to do their job here Center gets absolutely man handle though our guys around a little bit Fletcher is going to come into the game he's a block nice cut he gets flipped but it doesn't matter when you're in the end zone org back in Midfield Dante Morgan trying to get his team in the end zone for the first time today what a block by that offensive lineman are you kidding me see if we can get a stop here they go underneath we got our guys there I think it's going to be short double halfback set we got to be careful they go underneath is a beautiful play to get the first organ is feeling a good pressure here they get a guy down the middle it's a hard hit but is still alive things getting a little scary here as more in company inside the five he throws one and it's out of the back of the enzone our guys trying to lock in it's Out Of Reach and he he got the toe tap what a touchdown all right they are going to do a booth review that was a that was really close we didn't really get a good angle on that one uh the angle they're going to show us here is not exactly ideal either I mean I think he got his toes down look like it was good in the NFL and they call it good back out here on offense a small lead just because they decided to not actually go for two which in my opinion was pretty surprising it is early in the game so I guess I get it from that standpoint but it just felt like a decision that they weren't going to make they were actually going to go for it keeping the drive alive here our guys are going to able to get this screen a lot of Mario running but we got the first little over a minute left here in the first half again we want to get some points on the board for sure we're going to do our best to stretch the play and what a run again Turner again proving how good he is beautiful ball here McCrae looking for a block nearly has it it's out of bounds again inside the Red Zone we got a little bit more time we can actually play with even a field goal here is fine Martinez not the fastest guy but he'll get seven or get a couple Fletcher comes in the game 30 seconds left here Fletcher a little bit faster he's in the end zone under 30 seconds left we extend our lead it's a major play for us or has the ball back here in the second half down our defense has to make a stand here holding them to a field goal would be incredible what a DOT we should have been able to play that D MO is proven why he's one of the best quarterbacks in the country right now he's been picking apart an elite defense here for Miami Dante Moore throws one Bryan is not going to be able to get there though when he forces them out of bounds not exactly ideal second into two they throw one of the sidelines and that is wide open our defense cannot play that perfect at all did they go for two is the question so they do decide to go for it here two-point conversion their guys they say he's not in we'll take it and this is one of those big moments third and 12 we're going to try to flow one over can he get the first down croan McCrae can McCrae has been such a big pickup for us we found him late in the portal and I'm so glad that we did because every time the man touches the rock his success going right back out here to the the Run Martinez again knows what he's doing he's going to play to the sideline in case a big hit happens to come we want to make sure we fumble out of bounds here we go will take the Run couple of yards is good second and seven this is going to be close can he grab this so close we got ourselves in a pickle on Third and seven we need this conversion no that's overthrown he picked it off it was too overthrown can we get a stop on the return can but the defense has got to do their job now things get a little dicey we make a stand it's Fourth and four towards the end here in the third quarter they're going to kick one is going to be good they have the lead but it could have been a whole lot worse we need some sort of offense to cook right now and we're going to test Jeremiah Smith deep Jeremiah Smith has him beat deep Jeremiah Smith is stepping up in the national championship game org finds himself in a tough spot third and 11 it's obviously a passing down for them they throw one and it's going to be picked off what a tip he tips it to Harris Harris is going to try to get it in the end zone he's not but we are now at the goal line situation unbelievable heads up play you're going out of bounds tipping it to your teammate to keep it alive and allow him to have a play at it a field goal is absolutely fine here we know that or is obviously playing for the run but we know that a field goal is absolutely fine here we're okay with that that being said just know that we want a touchdown ooh a beautiful ball across McCrae inside the five being where we are right now we're going to chew the clock a little bit anytime we can take off the clock from them is huge and we get another touchdown a two touchdown lead with a little over 5 minutes it's a tough task for Oregon and desperate times call for desperate measures fourth and 14 Dante Moore by himself in a five wide set going for it a terrible angle a man wearing 99 on offense he's going to go to the house are you kidding me our offense is back out on the field but I am nervous right now we need to score even a field goal is fine but we have to go out here and do something cuz their offense is kind of crazy when they've got to do we a number 99 on offense scoring ain't but so much we can do nice run by Martinez we're going to keep ticking away at that clock Martinez out here with two rushing touchdowns looking for his third this afternoon not a lot of yards there to find but three is good second to seven trying to get him out here in the stretch we're going to get that and Martinez is going to go down in bouns which is smart two minute warnings here Oregon again loading the Box we know what they are trying to do but we obviously have to keep running this football it's a battle of which offensive line is going to be better or which defensive offensive line is going to be better and they're calling this one back holding on the offense you hate to see it so many penalties will hurt you especially late in the game but first and 17 you know what time it is Martinez is going to try to get us a couple he gets about six organ does use their first timeout we got our guy again fighting making him use that one again okay we're going with the pass play here it's not the safe play but it is the risky play and that's kind of how coach murvin MC murvin plays here we need to get a first down I don't trust our defense oh God he almost caught that but he didn't they have one timeout now we're pting in the pistol more again he throws one is Out Of Reach for guys and they are in scoring territory with a minute 30 you've got to switch out of man our guys are just getting torched and man at the moment organ's looking at the sideline trying to figure out what play they want to run here to get the audible we're watching they go sideline if we can keep him in Balance that's big and we do or in Shotgun by himself right now the clock is hitting about a minute or so not exactly prepared for five wide they go to the sideline and it's a beautiful route they throw one to the back of the End Zone we will have a lot of time assuming they kick the extra point but this is going to be scary they are going to go ahead and actually review this one uh to me it looks like he's easily in we're going to get a a quick look at this one yeah I mean I think both feet are down we'll get one more look at it here yeah it's a touchdown this is a big Drive 57 seconds in a dream you've got an opportunity to put this game away you just need three 52 seconds on the clock Turner again going to use his legs he's smartly down we love to see it 20 seconds we're going to the halfback here he's going to try to get us in field goal range as close as he can 13 seconds this is still a long field goal it's like 47 yards and some change Fletcher Fletcher he's out of bounds with 7 seconds left this is good 7even seconds left we have all of our timeouts we're going to try to run more to the middle here see if we can kind of line this field goal up and with 3 seconds left we're going to take a timeout to try to kick the national championship game winning field goal so Oregon went to ice the kicker this one's going to be close and Miami is going to win the national championship we said this rebuild wouldn't stop until we won a national championship and your Champions are the hurricanes with that kick right there Blood Sweat and Tears getting to a national championship in backto back years only to win it on a field goal in one of the toughest situations ever this game was chaotic the game game before it was chaotic the game before that was chaotic but that is how the Miami Hurricanes are going to get it done national champions in 2026 you love to see it be safe be smart tell somebody you love him let's check this National Championship troker from coach murvin MC murvin we'll catch you on the next one [Music] [Music]
