The latest challenge for Miami’s offensive line can only be blamed on the Hurricanes defense. With each progressive takeaway, and turnover chain ceremony, Hard Rock Stadium grew louder and louder last Thursday. After an eventual 47-10 win against North Carolina, Mark Richt likened the atmosphere in Miami Gardens to a party.
There was only one issue: It can be hard to hear what people are saying at a loud party.
“That chain comes out and it’s like the fans get a new level of loud. They get loud when we make a big play, but that chain brings something else out in them,” offensive lineman Tyler Gauthier said after practice Tuesday in Coral Gables.
