Miami football fell to Syracuse 42-38 in Week 14, leaving their College Football Playoff hopes in question for the moment.
Hurricanes head coach Mario Cristobal expressed his feelings over his team’s chances of making the final 12-team bracket.
SMU and Clemson are playing for the ACC title this week, and Miami’s previous losses to Georgia Tech and Syracuse cost them a shot at the conference at 6-2.
That said, Cristobal believes that the Hurricanes are more qualified than their competition to make the bracket.
“Miami winning 10 [games] is stronger than teams winning 9 games,” Cristobal said, per ESPN College Football on X, formerly Twitter.
Miami football’s Cam Ward ready for rebound opportunity
Miami football will be a tough team to face if they do end up making the field.
Cam Ward has been in the Heisman running all season, and despite a first-round selection in the NFL Draft on the horizon, he’s ready to make a huge splash for the Hurricanes no matter what postseason matchup they receive.
“If we get a chance to go into the playoff, we’re going to make the most of it,” Ward said, per ESPN.
While Cristobal and Miami feel that they are ready to make a run in the CFP, it appears that they could be left on the outside looking in, showing up No. 12 in Tuesday’s CFP ranking.
