Miami Football: Ranking Hurricanes’ 2020 opponents by toughness

After a disastrous 6-7 season filled with drama on and off the field, Miami football will look to get back on track in 2020.

Stop me if you have heard this before: the Miami Hurricanes have a very manageable schedule and could potentially get 9-10 wins out of it. Due to the weak nature of the ACC, Miami may only face one team that will be ranked in the top 25 in the preseason and that could help produce a winning season.

The Hurricanes don’t have the most challenging non-conference schedule either, with the highlight being a rare trip up north to East Lansing to take on Michigan State and even then, the Hurricanes will get to take them on in September without the drama of cold weather and the Spartans will also be under new leadership with Mel Tucker taking over as the head coach.

The Hurricanes also get to take advantage of not having Clemson on the conference schedule and the crossover division games will be against rival Florida State and a trip to Winston-Salem to take on Wake Forest on a Friday night.

I’m going to take a shot at ranking the Hurricanes’ opponents on their schedule this season.
