How Far Did Miami Football Drop in Polls After Louisville Loss
In the wake of the loss to Louisville, the Miami Hurricanes have dropped in both the AP and USA Coaches polls, but not all is lost.
The Hurricanes have dropped from the No. 2 team in the country to No. 9. There is still some value with this team, and now they control their destiny once again, similar to last week.
The issue with this loss is now they no longer control the chaos that is the ACC standings. The Hurricanes are the second-highest-ranked team in the ACC, behind No. 7 Georgia Tech, following No. 16 Virginia, and now No. 19 Louisville.
The Canes’ loss hurt, but the voters still see that they are a. top 10 team in the country. The conflicting schedule does not help with how everything went as well. A game against Florida, then a bye, then Florida State, then another bye, and finally, the Hurricanes have the rest of the season after the Cardinals.
The Hurricanes will face off against Stanford. A game they should dominate, but who knows how this team will react after such a heartbreaking loss.

Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra: “Regardless of the scheme is, I always go back to that, it’s just about committing to doing hard things. We were really moving in the zone, taking away airspace and scrambling to challenge shots at the rim. In a lot of these losses in the last month we’ve just been giving up shots at the rim and threes.”
