Would take a 3-loss SEC team (Bama/Ole Miss/South Carolina) over 2-loss Miami at this point.
Miami has been overrated all season because of how great Cam Ward is but Hurricanes will likely finish with zero ranked wins. Time to drop ‘em out.

Deion had been success at Jackson State and worked for years as a HS football coach before going to Colorado.
Ray Lewis has no coaching experience. There’s a huge difference there and people seem to forget Deion is the exception, not the rule, on high-profile athletes making jump into coaching.
