Over the last decade, the Miami Hurricanes have made a name for themselves by losing to teams they should easily defeat, and in year one of the Manny Diaz era, the trend continued. Of the inexplicable losses in 2019, one of the most difficult to comprehend was a home loss to an ACC Coastal rival, Virginia Tech Hokies team. One of the reasons the loss was so frustrating for everyone involved, was because the Hokies were fresh off an embarrassing 45-10 loss at Lane Stadium, to the Duke Blue Devils the week prior.
A year later, with a new offensive staff and new faces at key positions, Miami looks to reverse their fortunes from 2019 by making amends for losses that should not have been.
