The Miami Hurricanes’ offense has struggled for about a month now and Saturday there was no bigger culprit for Miami’s woes than self-inflicted wounds. On their way to a 27-21 loss to the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets at Bobby Dodd Stadium, the Hurricanes lost three fumbles and committed seven penalties for 48 yards.
After giving Miami an early 7-0 lead on a touchdown run, DeeJay Dallas helped give Georgia Tech its first lead. The Yellow Jackets answered the Hurricanes’ opening score with a touchdown of their own, then Dallas fumbled away the ensuing kickoff — his third fumble in two weeks.
