Miami’s biggest non-conference series of the season gets underway on Friday night as the Hurricanes take on the 14th ranked Florida Gators (8-2, 0-0 SEC) at Mark Light Field. Miami enters the series at 7-1, their best start since 2013, and will have an opportunity to win the series for the second year in a row after winning the series in Gainesville last season.
Ahead of this weekend, the Hurricanes have moved up in nearly every national poll, with Miami ranked as high as No.18 in the NCBWA and Perfect Game Top 25s.
Miami will also make some changes to their starting rotation ahead of the series, which Gino DiMare suggested was possible earlier this week during a radio interview with Hurricane Hotline.
