Episode Details

Miami Hurricanes dominance in the trenches, under Mario Cristobal, has been unmatched in the Power Four over the last three seasons. Their elite pressure rate allowed and non-blitz pressure rate on defense, coupled with impressive offensive line performance, has led to a top-10 ranking in tackles for loss allowed and sacks. This strength was evident in their College Football Playoff run, where they conceded minimal sacks and tackles for loss while racking up significant yards on the ground. The 2026 NFL Draft saw three Miami players, including right tackle Francis Mauigoa and edge rusher Rueben Bain, go in the top 22 picks. Despite losing these stars, Cristobal continues to prioritize the trenches, with a new batch of five-star freshmen and transfers ready to maintain Miamis dominance.
