Miami Hurricanes: Mark Walton Is a Scoring Machine; Future Looks Bright

On Saturday, Nov. 21, the Miami Hurricanes defeated the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, 38-21. The game was won due to GT turnovers, Brad Kaaya and a young stud … Miami’s freshman running back Mark Walton.

The Ramblin’ Wreck are known for their deadly ground game, which incorporates zone reads, option and triple option offense. Though Georgia Tech rushed for a total of 314 yards against the Hurricanes’ defense, Miami’s backfield dominated in their own right, which combined for 4 touchdowns.

It was “Senior Day” for the Hurricanes, but a freshman stood out.
