GREENSBORO, N.C. – It starts with a Labor Day matchup against hated rival and ACC Atlantic Division favorite Florida State.
Then comes a visit from Georgia Tech. You know, the same Yellow Jacket team that beat Miami 41-23 last season, running for an astounding 472 yards in the process.
If that wasn’t enough, the Hurricanes then travel to Blacksburg to face the conference favorite Hokies, who could be a top-10 team if they beat Alabama in their season-opener.
Oh, and just for kicks, the ‘Canes are gonna round out the first month of their season not with a nice, leisurely contest against a Florida International or Florida Atlantic type. No, in the fourth game of their season Miami will welcome Oklahoma, one of the three best teams in the nation.
Hey, at least two of those games come at home. Right Randy Shannon?
The thing of it is, many are predicting this year’s team as Miami’s best squad in some time. If they can get through those first four with two wins, they could be in for a big second half.
