The Miami football team begins their season with the biggest challenge in college football against Alabama at Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta. Miami will return home to host Appalachian State, Michigan State and Central Connecticut State. Miami’s 2021 non-conference schedule is the toughest nationally per 247 Sports.

Playing two games against Power Five opponents and one of the best Group of Five teams is nearly unprecedented by the other programs in the 247 top 10 2021 non-conference schedules. Alabama will likely enter 2021 number one, Michigan State is rebuilding and Appalachian State has previously beaten Power Five opponents.
