Miami

“Which Miami is going to show up? There isn’t a better-looking team in the Coastal from a physical standpoint, that’s for sure. That’s what they’re supposed to look like at ‘The U’ — but they didn’t play like it very often.”

“They obviously have a really talented quarterback and some weapons on offense, but who are they? Are they the team that plays pretty good to beat Virginia Tech or the team that laid down a week later and got absolutely embarrassed at home by Clemson?”

“It’ll be interesting to see what [Mark] Richt does down there, especially going back to calling the plays like he did early on at Georgia. If [Brad] Kaaya buys in, working with Coach Richt could be very good for him, especially in that pro-style system.”

“I think the biggest shock when we played them was at linebacker and how below-average they were at that position. When you think of Miami, you’re thinking about guys like Ray Lewis and Dan Morgan, Jonathan Vilma and Denzel Perryman.”

“In our opinion, they weren’t very good at all last year and nobody on the front four scared you as a pass rusher.”

“I know they’ve recruited well, and they seem to have some good young players on that defense, but the new staff is really going to have to develop those guys and build some competitiveness. They were pretty good in the secondary because they were an older, physical group with some size, but the front seven was as bad a Miami team as I’ve seen in some time.”
