About No. 2 Miami (5-0, 1-0 ACC): Miami’s recent schedule has been quirky: UM played Florida on Sept. 20, then had a bye week, followed by the road game against FSU on Oct. 4 and then another bye week. The Hurricanes hope those bye weeks will mean they’re healthy and firing on all cylinders as they move into the second half of the season.

Miami leads the all-time series with a 12-4-1 record, though Mario Cristobal and Jeff Brohm have split their meetings since taking over as head coaches at their respective alma maters. Louisville won 38-31 in 2023 en route to locking up a spot in the ACC title game, then last season Miami got revenge with a 52-45 win in Louisville last year.
