The Miami football team will begin their 2019 season in Orlando at Camping World Stadium against Florida August 24. The Hurricanes initially made the decision to have the game near the Magic Kingdom because the Rolling Stones concert was scheduled to be held at Hard Rock Stadium this weekend.
When the Stones had to cancel their concert tour because of an illness to lead singer Mick Jagger it was too late for the Miami football team to back out. Manny Diaz has also repeatedly said this spring he views it as a dress rehearsal for the Camping World Kickoff game in August.
