Miami Hurricanes Ranked 13th in third CFP rankings for 2025
On Tuesday night, the College Football Playoff (CFP) committee released the third installment of its rankings for the 2025 season. After a blowout win over NC State, Miami continued the arduous task of climbing their way up the rankings and into a potential at-large berth spot for the Playoff bracket. The Full CFP rankings, including […]
ACC Power Rankings: Week 12
It was another interesting week in the Atlantic Coast Conference. To begin the slate, Clemson pulled off the road upset of Louisville on Friday night. Miami nearly shut out a NC State many thought would put up points. Virginia went on the road and dominated Duke, officially ending the ACC’s doomsday scenario. Pitt got blown […]
Dear JD: They’re tellin’ me there’s still a chance
Not_Cam_Underwood: Dear JD, The Calgorithm says Miami has a chance. It’s a snowball’s chance in h-ll but a chance none-the-less! Dear JD: Not_Cam_Underwood I get that there is mathematically still a chance but the ‘Canes aren’t likely to play in the ACC Championship Game even if they win out, which won’t be easy when it […]
Nameless Top 25 (Week 13)
Every year, numerous teams open the season with lofty rankings that evaporate after just a few weeks. Early rankings are bias driven – both by the school and the conference they play in.

Miami needs to lean more into what they did with Malachi Toney against NC State moving forward
Malachi Toney has proven over the 2025 season that he’s not an average freshman. And that’s the case in a number of ways for the local standout. It’s not every day you see a 17-year-old make players who’ve been playing at the college level for years look foolish, but the shifty wideout has done it […]
5 up, 5 down for Miami against NC State
Well, I have to put a bit of a disclaimer out on this one. I was in the stands in Neyland Stadium watching the Tennessee Volunteers play on Saturday afternoon, so I had one eyeball on the game there and one on my phone watching Miami play. Perhaps I need to watch with one eye […]
Top 25: Week 13
