Last night, the Miami Hurricanes defeated the Wake Forest Demon Deacons 33-20. The contest was not pretty by any means, as the team took their foot off the gas in the second half. However, thanks to Pro Football Focus we have the grades for each player showing how well they played in the win.

Yet again, the Darian Mensah and Malachi Toney connection was on display, connecting 12 times for 114 yards and one touchdown. Toney was the highest-graded player on the offensive side of the ball with an 87.5 grade. Mensah finished the night by completing 30 of his 34 passes for 220 yards--good enough to be the No. 2 graded player on offense with an overall grade of 72.1.

On the defensive side of the ball, defensive back Ethan O'Connor came up clutch at one of the biggest moments of the game, sealing an interception to help the Hurricanes to victory. He was the highest-graded defensive player on the team with a grade of 82.3.

Pretty early in the day to be hammered drunk
 
Pay no attention to the man behind this these grades
 
Pringle at a 67 is laughable.

Dunnigan at 42 is absurd.

Chase Smith, SJ, and Rodriguez are all scored way too **** high
I lost it when I saw the Dunnigan one. Did they take off points for him being a freshman or something? I don't get it.

Our section at the game was talking about how bad Dunnigan looked out there.

He racked up tackles. That’s about it

Wake fans screaming to go at 25 because he was lost and missing tackles everywhere. I got on here after and was shocked to see all of the hype.

Not his fault. He shouldn’t be asked to play 100% of the snaps yet

Wow, that's funny. Thanks for this perspective. Maybe we're just extra happy with him because he's only a true freshman. You're right that he probably shouldn't be in on every single snap though. I was definitely shocked about that one.

I do love when I'm able to go to the games in person, and then go home and watch it on TV. You always see so many different things from each perspective.
