SLOPPY: Miami Hurricanes and Darian Mensah SURVIVE Wake Forest, But Raise Major QUESTIONS

Miami Hurricanes survive Wake Forest scare as Darian Mensah shatters records with 24 straight completions—yet sloppy second-half play raises tough questions. Is Miami truly playoff-ready, or do the Hurricanes still have crucial gaps to fix?

Alex Donno recaps Miami’s 33-20 road win, spotlighting Mensah’s historic ACC performance, Malachi Toney’s and Mark Fletcher’s injury setbacks, and the offense’s puzzling retreat into conservative play calling. Defensive breakdowns, including missed tackles and soft coverage, allowed Wake Forest QB Gio Lopez and receiver Carlos Hernandez to shine after halftime. Timely fourth-down stops and Ethan O’Connor’s late interception salvaged Miami’s lead. With Mario Cristobal’s perfectionist standards looming, can the Hurricanes clean up their act before bigger tests ahead?
