Speaking on the ESPN College Football Scoreboard on Saturday analyst Jesse Palmer asserted that the Miami Hurricanes can compete for a berth in the 2021 College Football Playoff with the return of quarterback D’Eriq King.

The Miami Hurricanes football team received a big boost on Saturday when quarterback D’Eriq King announced he was returning to the Hurricanes for the 2021 season. Miami should be more explosive on offense in 2021 in their second season with King running the Rhett Lashlee offense.

ESPN analyst Jesse Palmer stated he believes the Miami Hurricanes can contend for an ACC Championship in 2021 with King returning and Clemson QB Trevor Lawrence moving on to an NFL career.
