Can the Miami Hurricanes win their marquee opener vs. LSU? ESPN analysts think so

The eighth-ranked Miami Hurricanes will kick off their 2018 football season in just a few short hours against No. 25 LSU in Arlington, Texas.

And if the college football analysts on ESPN’s College GameDay are right, UM will leave its marquee matchup at AT&T Stadium on Sunday night with a win.

All four on the set when they talked about the Hurricanes-LSU matchup — Lee Corso, Desmond Howard, Kirk Herbstreit and host Rece Davis — spoke optimistically about the Canes ahead of the opener, praising the defense and overall talent coach Mark Richt has on his roster heading into his third season leading UM.
