Miami definitely struggles on third downs, much of the work of the offense in terms of success is done on first and second downs. I’m interested to see if we can improve on it this year because it would make the offense that much more efficient and potent since it’s already explosive without good 3rd down numbers. Imagine what it would be if that number increasedThis
With the D line both teams have, if the offensive lines struggle its going to be a brutal night for both offenses. You are looking at 2 of the best D's in the country playing.
What i am interested to see is miami was 125th ranked in 3rd down conversions last year only converting 29% percent of the time and LSU's D only allowed opposing teams to convert 35% of the time and was 20th in the nation at stopping 3rd down conversions.
