The Miami Hurricanes have a schedule built for success heading into the 2018 football season. The ACC is down, with Florida State only sort of bowl eligible and teams like UNC, Duke and Georgia Tech having down years as well. Conferences swing up and down and the ACC is fairing better than the Pac-12 right now but outside of Clemson and Miami left much to be desired in 2017.
Don’t believe me? After LSU (19th in the S&P+), the Toledo Rockets are Miami’s highest ranked opponent per the S&P+ heading into 2018 at number 29.
