For the second week in a row, inclement weather caused a delay in the first half of the Hurricanes game, and for the second straight week it didn’t matter as the Canes rolled over Florida Atlantic 44-20 in Boca Raton on Friday night.
While Miami blitzed Bethune-Cookman following the weather delay in the season opener, the Canes looked sluggish and disorganized coming back from the hour-long delay against FAU. The 15-minute break at halftime straightened out the Canes as they proceeded to outscore the Owls 24-3 in the second half.
Miami (2-0) opened the game with a 12-play, 75-yard long drive that was capped off by a four-yard touchdown run by Mark Walton.
