Miami has been choking away a few ACC games-per-season since joining the conference in 2004—sans 2017, where they eked out a bunch of wins and wound up with a 10-1 record that could've just as easily have been 7-4 (FSU, GT, UNC, CUSE, etc.)
This "we have no business losing any more games" nonsense is just that—nonsense.
Aside from this being a quirky year with weekly upsets, Miami still has a brutally bad offensive line. Clemson exposed it and bold to believe that the Canes should just roll through the next six games.
Also, North Carolina's slow start at Florida State doesn't mean the Tar Heels will be any less of a pushover on December 5th. That game and the road game at Virginia Tech will be dogfights. Virginia's defense will come at the Canes porous o-line next week, as well—though that should absolutely be a winnable game.
North Carolina State, Georgia Tech and Wake Forest should be winnable games, as well—but the season isn't a "failure" if Miami somehow drops another game in this strange 2020, with a sub-par o-line.
This season is already stepping up to be a step forward from 6-7 last year (on the heels of a 7-9 run from Richt after the 10-0 start in 2017.)
The next step is for Miami to parlay that into a strong close to recruiting—as well as hitting the Portal hard again.
