2026 CFP Showdown: Will Indiana’s Dream Run Rewrite History or Will Miami Crush Their Hopes?

2026 CFP Showdown: Will Indiana's Dream Run Rewrite History or Will Miami Crush Their Hopes?

There have been three points scored in Miami’s three CFP games. The Hurricanes are 90th in first-quarter points per game on offense and third in first-quarter points allowed per game on defense. 

Furthermore, between nerves and playing styles, this could be like other championship games or title bouts where the opponents try to figure each other out early on. Both teams like to establish the run, so maybe there are fewer possessions in the first quarter.

Hemby rushed for 52 yards against Ohio State in the Big Ten Championship and 53 yards vs. Oregon in the CFP semifinals, and Miami’s rushing defense is comparable to those teams. He splits carries with RB Kaelon Black, who averages more yards per carry (5.7-5.0) and more rushing touchdowns (10-7).
