Mark Richt’s
Miami Hurricanes are the projected favorite in all 12 of their 2018 games
Does Richt have the QB to avoid landmines? If so, the Canes could be ready for a huge season.
Miami Hurricanes
Head coach: Richt (19-7, third year)
2017 record and S&P+ ranking: 10-3 (17th)
Projected 2018 record and S&P+ ranking: 9-3 (13th)
Five key points:
1. For a fleeting moment, Miami was The U again last year, dominating Notre Dame and moving to 10-0 and second in the country. Then came three straight losses.
2. An increasingly depleted skill corps led to a late collapse for QB Malik Rosier. It’ll be interesting to see how he responds or if a younger QB has a chance to surpass him.
3. If QB is stable, the offense is otherwise loaded. A healthy Ahmmon Richards is one of the nation’s best WRs, and RB Travis Homer, WR Jeff Thomas, etc., are ultra-explosive.
4. The defense was a turnover machine, in part because of the havoc the line was creating. The line has suffered considerable turnover, though, and will need help from a seasoned, exciting back seven.
5. With a schedule that features just three projected top-40 opponents, the Canes are a projected favorite in every game. Do they have the QB situation to run the table?
