Miami should be able to really exploit this. Just a few games ago they ray ray mccloud playing prime time minutes at the position who is a receiver against ncstate. Another one of their starters mark fields was ruled out too for this game. If we go 4 and 5 wide lookout..... Ncstate had guys running wide open on this secondary, fsu had guys open, Syracuse had guys open, South Carolina did too they just didn’t hit them.

Did not know their depth was that low at CB.

Who are their starters for the game? Have they been the starters all year?
 
Well they'll be without Mark Fields, but he hasn't played for them in a while. Tre lamar is also out for them at LB.

Sounds like a broken record, but the opportunities will be there for Malik and Richt. They just have to capitalize.
 
Ryan Carter and Mullen are very good corners after that there's a significant drop off, Carter is 5'9 we could matvhup our bigger WRs on him, Mullen is 6'2 and fluid so there's that
 
Their depth is fine - they had a bunch of guys out against nc state. They all have returned.

You can bet UM will be going 4 wide most of the game. We don't have much choice with one TE. I would expect to see Dallas and Homer together in certain packages on top of the wildcat. The smartest thing to do IMO would be to run tempo once Rosier gets his rhythm. It worked for Syracuse. This matchup isn't half bad the good guys.

Use both deejay and homer at the same time . Having both lined up to catch passes or what have you

I Have faith that malik has responded in practice which it appears he has
 
That's the thing, their weakness at cb plays into our weakness at qb with ball accuracy and placement. Add their d line to that and it will be a tough game.

Im sure richt and staff will be prepared, hope the players will be.

South Carolina’s QB might have downfield accuracy worse than Malik.

He’s pitiful.

Per their board they really only used 2 corners for most of the plays against South Carolina

A Clemson fan came on this board this past week and said all of them will be available for this game. Again, no depth issues.
 
Another thing...you can bet they’ll try to take Berrios out of the game forcing Thomas, Harley, Cager, and Langham to step up. We need ND Cager, Gtech Langham, Thomas to show some aggression, and Harley to finally make a big play. It sounds like they’ll have opportunities against lower tier CB’s. Only 3 CB’s on Clemson have played meaningful snaps. With 4 WR sets somebody has a jag CB, or LB covering them.
