We open the show this week with a quick recap of our “Rejected Show Titles” Bracket now that we have teams assigned to all these hilarious throw-away titles. From there it’s deep into Miami’s first-round match-up with Missouri, and where Miami will need to improve in order to make a deep run.
Our friends at 247 dropped their two-deep projections for Miami going into the season, and the more we look at it, the more confident we feel that this team will make a big push again this season. We dive into the depth in the Running Backs room, and how these offensive lineman will hold up with an almost entirely new crew. And on the defense we are all really excited to have Ahmad Moten back again, with hopes that he could become a stalwart of the Miami defense this season.
FanDuel also dropped their expected win totals for the 2026 season, with Miami near the top of the list, and somehow Notre Dame is sitting ahead of us, even though the line for the upcoming game in November has grown to 4.5 favorites for Miami. We also have early Heisman odds that include both Darian Mensah and Malachi Toney – with Josh Pate making his case for Darian Mensah.
