Mario Cristobal kicked off his third season in Coral Gables with a win. Like most opening games, there were sloppy mental mistakes, but Miami still defeated rival Florida Gators 41-17.
Miami's defense created the spark early as I said in my keys to a victory the Hurricanes got to start off quick which Lance Guidry's defense did.
The Miami quarterback threw 26 successful passes for 385 yards, while throwing for three touchdowns, and had one interception. Damien Martinez led the Miami team with 15 carries for 65 yards and zero touchdowns. It appeared that the Hurricanes' offense was well-coordinated and prepared to play.
Xavier Restrepo was the leading receiver for the Hurricanes; he grabbed seven receptions for 112 yards and a touchdown.
Cam Ward was sitting in the backfield long enough to deliver some unbelievable balls to the receivers.

The offensive line was special
The Hurricane's offensive line was special and was making holes for the running back and giving Cam Ward all the time in the world and that led to some great plays for the Canes.Cam Ward was sitting in the backfield long enough to deliver some unbelievable balls to the receivers.
