Projected seed: 10
Miami's placement is justified by a resume that pairs signature road victories at Mississippi, Wake Forest, Notre Dame and NC State with home statement wins over North Carolina and Stanford, showing they can win away and on a neutral floor; those high points are offset by damaging neutral-site losses to Florida and BYU, a road setback at Clemson and a puzzling home defeat to California that raise questions about consistency, while a slate of blowout wins over low-major opponents pads the ledger without adding much resume value; the remaining slate — home games against Virginia Tech and Louisville and road tests at Virginia, SMU and Florida State — are clear opportunities to cement or erode the case, so overall the profile reads like a team firmly in the tournament conversation but still dependent on the stretch run to move up.
