A Potential Return to Miami's Offensive Line Could Save This Season
CORAL GABLES, Fla. — The best version of Miami's offensive line was seen before the bye week against Clemson. The run game was clicking, and Darian Mensah wasn't getting pressured as much.
Against Notre Dame, it was one of the worst offensive line performances in over three years under Mario Cristobal and Alex Mirabal.
Mensah was pressured over 31 times, and each time he had to step back, he had to create on the fly. It worked and nearly got the Hurricanes back into the game, but Miami's last drive saw Mensah get sacked, killing any chance of a one-minute drive.
However, there is a glimmer of hope for the Canes after Monday's coaches press conference.
