Overview
- Kickoff is 7 p.m. ET on ESPN at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens in the programs’ first meeting.
- Miami looks to rebound from a 24-21 defeat to Louisville in which Carson Beck threw four interceptions, with coaches emphasizing cleaner execution.
- Stanford is coming off a 20-13 upset of Florida State, holding the Seminoles to a season-low 13 points.
- Starting QB Ben Gulbranson is listed as probable, backup Elijah Brown handled the second half versus FSU, and leading rusher Micah Ford is out.
- The Cardinal secondary is thin with Mitch Leigber out for the first half and Jay Green unavailable, and Stanford is 0-4 on the road this season.
