Walk-On’s Independence Bowl Preview: Miami vs Louisiana Tech

This past offseason, the Miami Hurricanes entered the 2019 season with high hopes. New head coach Manny Diaz, a Miami native, had infused some much needed energy into the program, and it appeared the Canes were recharged after a disappointing 7-6 campaign in 2018. In an ideal world, the Hurricanes would be spending Christmas in Coral Gables, as they would be getting ready for the Orange Bowl at their home stadium. However, there is no ideal world, and the Canes ended up about as far away from the Orange Bowl as possible.

After a season filled with ghastly losses, uneven quarterback play, and less than desired offense, the Miami Hurricanes will trudge into Shreveport, Louisiana, as the 6-6 Canes will play the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs in the Walk-On’s Independence Bowl.
