#7 Miami vs. Stanford: The matchup<\/p>\n

The Hurricanes are back in business and reloading behind transfer quarterback Darian Mensah, looking to get over the hump after reaching the College Football Playoff a year ago. Miami surged late to slip into the playoff field as the No. 10 seed and went on a postseason tear to defeat No. 7 Texas A&M (10-3), No. 2 Ohio State (24-14) and No. 6 Ole Miss (31-27) before falling to No. 1 Indiana (27-21) in the title matchup. The Hurricanes are contenders once again, with Mensah bringing his dual-threat skills to help the Canes offense soar. <\/p>\n

The Cardinal are 24.5-point underdogs on their home field, as they enter with a 1-0 record and a 37-27 win over Hawaii under their belt. Stanford led the Rainbow Warriors 23-7 in the fourth quarter, squandered that lead, but scored the final 14 points of the game to escape with a win at Stanford Stadium. Running back Micah Ford rushed for 99 yards and three touchdowns in the winning effort. <\/p>\n
