Miami Hurricanes: College Football Playoff Level Expectations in 2024
Led by transfer quarterback Cam Ward, the Miami Hurricanes are aiming to secure a spot in the College Football Playoff for the first time in their history. Ward, who arrives from Washington State, boasts an impressive track record, throwing 48 touchdowns and rushing for 13 more over two seasons with the Cougars.
Heading into the season, the Hurricanes will once again be guided by head coach Mario Cristobal. Since joining Miami in 2022, Cristobal’s tenure has been marked by mixed results. In his first season, the team finished with a 5-7 record, but showed improvement in 2024 by reaching bowl eligibility, albeit ending the season with a loss to Rutgers in the Pinstripe Bowl, concluding with a 7-6 record.
