What should Miami’s gameplan be on offense?

Establish the run, and utilize the quick passing game early to neutralize their pass rush. Then later start taking occasional down field shots. Saw a stat that Beck had by far the fastest average time between the snap of the ball and his throws among P4 QBs. Along with our great OL that will counter their pass rush.

One trend I liked this year for road teams in SEC, is after a second down play going into 3rd down, they go into no huddle and force no substitution.

Allows for crowd not to get into it. Hope we copy that trend
 
Something to watch for this week is using 10 as a decoy. It’s obvious to anyone with any football sense “ that little receiver “ will be AM’s focus. Which I love a defense focusing on a slot wr , it’s much harder to deal with that than say a X or Z who you can bracket. Doing that with a slot is a dangerous game that leaves so many more opportunities outside or with te’s on the other side.

So this week I’d like to see Malachi being used the same way but more action off the other games . He was force fed the ball against Pit , I believe 21 touches. So the last thing that defense saw was a heavy , steady diet of MT. I have a strong sense any motion , movement , aligning will have more attention on him than a big breasted teacher in a special needs class. All 22 eyes will be following him. This could lead to a Lofton , CJ or JoJo big play. Or opening a big play for Pringle in run game.

I still say feed Toney but maybe less touches and more manipulation. Just something to watch.
It’s funny this week I was randomly thinking of the play against Louisville in 2020 when we motioned the wr in and Cam Harris went outside for 80 yards right where we motioned away from. Would like to see similar type stuff Saturday.
 
Many have already stated the obvious but use Mali as a decoy early on.
Yea they are going to bait and jump routes and sit hard on Toney as the hot throw in response to a pressure or simulated pressure.

Gruden seems to think the Aggie secondary is BBQ chicken so there might be some other matchups out there to hit.
