Miami Football: Takeaways from Pinstripe Bowl loss to Wisconsin

3. Miami still doesn’t have a quarterback

Rosier finished the game 5-for-12 with a measly 46 passing yards and three interceptions. One bone I have to throw out here is Rosier’s 90 rushing yards in which 62 came from a huge gain at a crucial point in the first half. Miami would go on to kick a field goal and avoid the shutout.

N’Kosi Perry would take the field in the third quarter (I have to assume it was a half-game suspension) and wouldn’t perform any better than Rosier. Perry went 1-for-5 for two yards and an interception. The freshman signal-caller also accumulated 11 yards on the ground on four carries.

With Rosier graduating, the Canes are looking for either Perry or fellow freshman Jarren Williams to take the reigns. Williams look at transferring earlier in the week but assured the coaches and the team that he was here to stay. The hometown dual-threat quarterback was expected to play some late in the game against Wisconsin but was never given the opportunity despite being down 25 points with 9:59 left in the game. With neither Rosier nor Perry doing much of note, why was Williams left wanting on the sideline?
