The Miami Hurricanes have gotten a lot of buzz during the 2021 offseason with 19 returning starters. Quarterback D’Eriq King is a Heisman Trophy contender. Games against Alabama and at North Carolina with Clemson likely waiting in the ACC Championship Game if Miami wins the ACC Coastal, the schedule is difficult.

The Miami Hurricanes would have to win at least two out of those three potential games and probably all three to qualify for the College Football Playoff. With a playmaker as dynamic as King Miami will always have a chance to win.
