Miami’s Secondary Under the Microscope vs. Duke
Hard Rock Stadium will host a high-stakes ACC matchup Saturday at noon on ABC when No. 7 Miami (8-1, 6-0) hosts Duke (7-2, 4-2). The Hurricanes enter looking to rebound from their first loss of the season and potentially clinch their spot in the ACC Championship Game.
While the run defense has been solid for Miami, one unit will be under the brightest lights on Saturday, and that is the secondary.
The Story on the Secondary
Miami owns the nation’s No. 1 rushing defense, allowing just 64.3 yards per game. That unit has consistently stifled opposing ground games and remains the defense’s clear and obvious strength. Justin Scott and Ahmad Moten Sr. are a big reason why that is the case.
