Miami Preview: Duke
This game kinda scares me

Just like the subheader says, this game makes me very uneasy because Duke is 7-2 and outscored the last two games 88-5. It was against Boston College and North Carolina State, but that's something you can't overlook, especially with Manny on the other side. He has some deep-rooted issues with the Canes- not a known thing- but getting fired by them, and they got picked over you for the CFP last year, when you won the ACC Championship (They were never gonna make it with an 8-5 record). You got your QB and WR stolen from you by the same team, so you know Manny had this game circled, and he would absolutely love to ruin the Canes season. Miami needs to use these next three weeks and make it like last year after they lost to SMU; they basically reinvented themselves and became the hottest team in the country outside of Indiana, which would end up beating Miami in the National Championship game. Same goes for the defense; this is the stretch of the season where Corey Heatherman needs to reinvent himself as well, and don't be afraid to go from one week and not blitz to the next week and be super aggressive; same with a drive-by-drive standpoint, always be adjusting, cause as a coach that is your job, your secondary isn't great, so try and find ways to make it easier for them. Yes, it doesn't help that your d-ends can't get to the QB, especially since last year you had Bain and Mesidor, the two best d-ends in the country. This is a big game for everyone, especially with Toney out again. Duke is no slouch, and they can upset Miami, so the boys better be ready for a dogfight. Go Canes.
