Slow starts have been the bane of the Hurricanes’ season thus far.
Miami allowed Southern Miss, Texas A&M, Middle Tennessee State and North Carolina to get out to early leads. In their last three games, the Hurricanes didn’t recover from those deficits.
As Miami travels north to face Virginia Tech (2-4, 1-2) ACC at 12:30 p.m. on Saturday, the UM coaching staff and its players will try to find a way to reverse those fortunes with a strong start and get their first win in more than a month.
“You always want to figure that out,” coach Mario Cristobal said.
