MIAMI HURRICANES

Here's everything you need to know about Miami-Clemson, from the point spread, moneyline, total Over/Under and expert pick from Jason McIntyre.

Kamren Kinchens had three of Miami’s four interceptions and scored on a 99-yard pick-six, freshman quarterback Jacurri Brown filled in for Tyler Van Dyke and passed for three touchdowns, and the Hurricanes routed Georgia Tech 35-14.

Three key takeaways from the state’s football scene this past weekend -- and a glimpse at what’s to come next week.

Tyler Van Dyke threw for 351 yards and two touchdowns to lead Miami to a 20-14 victory over Virginia Tech on Saturday.

Drake Maye passed for 309 yards and two touchdowns, one of them a 74-yarder to J.J. Jones, and North Carolina overcame a stellar performance by Tyler Van Dyke to beat Miami 27-24 on Saturday.

Of everything the Miami Hurricanes did wrong in their stunning loss to the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders before their bye week, perhaps the most alarming pratfall was the return of an all-too-familiar, awful Miami trope.

Frank Gore had a flair for drama when he played for the Miami Hurricanes. There was a 12-yard go-ahead touchdown run late to cap a wild comeback win over Florida in 2003. A game-ending 18-run touchdown run in overtime to beat Florida State in 2004.

Miami coach Mario Cristobal confirmed Thursday at his ACC media days appearance that Miami would no longer be breaking out the iconic jewelry after forcing a turnover. The turnover chain was introduced in 2017 and its various iterations have been a big part of the Miami program for the past five seasons. But the turnover chain era is now over, just like Diaz’s tenure as Miami head coach. And Cristobal really didn't seem too inclined to talk a lot about the chain being put out to pasture on Thursday.

Miami is the fifth team to withdraw from a bowl game this season due to COVID-19 protocols or a lack of available players on the roster.

The Miami Hurricanes’ plans to play in the Sun Bowl on Dec. 31 appear to be uncertain at best, after the school announced its football program has entered COVID-19 protocols.

Mario Cristobal is leaving Oregon and headed home to Miami.

Tyler Van Dyke threw three touchdown passes, Charleston Rambo had 210 receiving yards to nearly break the Miami single-game record and the Hurricanes continued their second-half surge with a 33-30 win over Georgia Tech. Van Dyke completed 22 of 34 passes for 389 yards.

Miami freshman Tyler Van Dyke threw for 426 yards and three touchdowns as the Hurricanes beat No. 17 Pittsburgh 38-34.

Tyler Van Dyke passed for 325 yards and four touchdowns, two of them to Charleston Rambo, and Miami knocked off No. 18 N.

There’s no question who Virginia will start at quarterback. That’s not the case with Miami.

Tyler Van Dyke passed for 270 yards and three touchdowns in his first career start, and Miami tuned up for Atlantic Coast Conference play by racking up a school-record 739 yards of offense in an easy 69-0 win over Central Connecticut State.

Miami is planning to play without quarterback D’Eriq King on Saturday when it takes on Central Connecticut State.

King was injured during Miami’s 38-17 loss to Michigan State this past Saturday. He left the field briefly in the second half of that game so the shoulder could be evaluated, then returned without missing a single Miami snap. Miami is also awaiting results of further tests on offensive lineman Jalen Rivers, who left during the Michigan State game with a knee injury. 22 after a season-opening loss to Alabama, dropped two more spots after narrowly defeating Appalachian State and then fell out entirely following the 21-point home loss to Michigan State. ... Our performances are hurting all of us.”King’s numbers in the loss to Michigan State topped two longstanding Miami records.

Miami quarterback D’Eriq King has a shoulder injury that will need further evaluation this week in the latest blow to the reeling Hurricanes.

Payton Thorne passed for 261 yards and four touchdowns, two of those scoring throws going to Jalen Nailor, and Michigan State extended its unbeaten start by topping No. 24 Miami 38-17 on Saturday.

The Miami Hurricanes will host Michigan State at noon on Saturday at Hard Rock Stadium.

A cat survived a scare.

The Miami Hurricanes will host Appalachian State at 7 p.m. on Saturday as the team continues to look for its first win on Saturday.
