Central Connecticut State is a get-better card for Miami. It just lost at home to Southeast Louisiana, 56-10. The only reason that score won’t be repeated is Miami needs to rest key players after the day’s in hand to get ready for Thursday’s game against Virginia.
A matchup against an FCS program, such as Central Connecticut State, may be exactly what Miami needs right now after its 38-17 loss to Michigan State last Saturday. The Hurricanes have lost four of their last five games dating back to last season, losing three of those four by a wide margin.
