For the 2nd year under Head Coach Mario Cristobal, the Miami Hurricanes are Bowl Eligible after winning their 6th game, 39-38 at Cal on Saturday night.
The difference this year, obviously, is that Miami is undefeated and ranked in the top 10 through 6 weeks, so the aspirations of which bowl (or better....) the Canes may play in continue to rise with every passing week.
It’s taken a couple of years, but Cristobal finally has Miami’s roster and performance to the level of his dreams. And now, halfway through the season undefeated, there’s still everything to play for ahead of this team. Each individual game is a step along the path toward an ACC Championship and more.
And, before you rip me for this piece, just know there are other teams who are NOT bowl eligible, and may not get there. (Looking at you, Florida State). So be thankful for what we have. It could always be worse.
In years past, Miami has played in lower tier bowls such as the Camping World Bowl, the Sun Bowl, and others. With 6 wins already to their credit, Miami is obviously looking at a bigger bowl, and the sky is the limit for now. Say what you want, but Miami is undefeated, and bowl eligible, and will continue working to reach a Major Bowl game (New Year’s 6 or College Football Playoff) for the first time since following the 2003 season (2004 Orange Bowl).
Great stuff, but the work isn’t over. Keep grinding, guys.
