Although the Hurricanes had quite a few injuries added to their list during the game against Toledo, the team overall has managed to finesse a huge win and impress critics with an outstanding performance by Malik Rosier and an explosive Miami offense. What also managed to catch people’s attention was the U’s defense. Injuries aside, the D showed up to hold the Rockets back from making a comeback in the third quarter. With a performance like this following their 77-0 shutout against Savannah State, they’re beginning to be nationally ranked for it.
According to the Miami Herald, the Hurricanes has risen to fourth in the nation for total defense.
