5 and 0! The Canes are perfect, ranked #2 in the AP poll, and the vibe is back! Quarterback Carson Beck is leading an offense that’s averaging 32.5 points and 428.0 yards per game, while Mark Fletcher Jr. is dominating the run game with 428 yards and 5 TDs through five games. But the bye week isn't for celebrating—it's for fine-tuning. We’re addressing the few issues that could derail this dream season with the U Heard microscope. The defense is playing lights out, giving up just 16.3 points per game and holding opponents to only 2.8 yards per rush attempt. The question isn't whether they can play D, it's about eliminating self-inflicted wounds. Our top two priorities for the coaches: *Discipline: Miami is averaging 7.6 penalties per game for 62.8 yards, a statistic that ranks among the worst nationally. This undisciplined play must stop before we face tougher conference battles. *Turnover Differential: While the Canes are a respectable +1.2 in turnover margin per game, they have to keep the takeaway pressure high to mask any minor flaws in the run defense. We also take a quick look ahead to the next challenge—the Louisville Cardinals, who have shown flashes but are dealing with some of their own offensive struggles. This is Miami’s chance to step on the gas and prove they belong in the national conversation.
