1 Jan
Summary
- Nick Saban emphasized scoring early and often against Ohio State.
- Quarterback Carson Beck's performance is critical for Miami's success.
- Avoiding turnovers is key to preventing Ohio State from capitalizing.
Legendary coach Nick Saban believes the Miami Hurricanes must score significantly to defeat the Ohio State Buckeyes in the Cotton Bowl Classic. Saban noted that the long break between games could impact Miami's rhythm, but ultimately, offensive execution will decide the contest. He advised the Hurricanes to score aggressively to keep up with Ohio State's dynamic offense, which is capable of explosive plays.
Central to Miami's success is quarterback Carson Beck, who Saban stated must be sharp, confident, and in control. Protecting the football is paramount, as Ohio State's defense has a history of converting turnovers into points. Miami's offensive coordinator, Shannon Dawson, also highlighted the importance of patience and composure, warning against forcing plays that could lead to costly errors in the high-pressure game.
