Miami (OH) returned no starters on offense from last season, and the unit showed clear growing pains, managing only 117 total yards and going 0-for-9 on third-down conversions. This lack of rhythm and execution will need to be addressed quickly.
Dequan Finn, the former MAC MVP from Toledo, completed just 9 of 18 passes for 83 yards with two interceptions, failing to generate any scoring drives. His accuracy and decision-making under pressure will be critical areas for improvement.
While the defense allowed 353 yards, they kept the game close for much of the first half, trailing only 3-0 at halftime. However, the offense's inability to sustain drives or score put the defense in difficult positions, leading to a shutout loss.
Miami (OH) will travel to face Rutgers next, needing to quickly fix offensive cohesion and quarterback play to compete against a Big Ten opponent. The team must improve third-down efficiency and avoid turnovers to have a chance.
