After a disappointing season-opening loss to LSU, No. 20 Miami (Fla.) did just what it was supposed to do last Saturday, take out some of its frustrations on an overmatched Savannah State team, shutting the Tigers down 77-0. The Hurricanes now head to Toledo to face the Rockets, who come off a bye week after opening the season with a 66-3 rout of VMI.

The Rockets were far from pushovers in their 52-30 loss to the Hurricanes in Miami last year, even owning a 16-10 lead at halftime, and the MAC champions are anxiously awaiting the rematch at home. “Let’s face it,” Hurricanes coach Mark Richt told reporters. “The (Toledo) coaches had time to get ready for two weeks, and the whole offseason. We really don’t know, for sure, what we’ll get. The only thing we do know is, historically, they don’t try to make up a whole bunch of stuff. They just line up and win. They just line up and execute. … They’re a team that can whip our butt if we don’t take care of business.” The Hurricanes know it will be a battle and all eyes will again be on much-maligned quarterback Malik Rosier, whose hold on the Canes’ starting job may be loosening after backup N’Kosi Perry gave a glimpse at his potential against Savannah State, when he entered the game in the second quarter and went 9 of 14 for 93 yards with three touchdown passes. “Bottom line,” Richt said about Rosier, who ended a stretch of four straight sub-.500 completion days last week when he went 8 of 12, “we’re going to play who we think gives us the best chance of winning. If somebody else gives us a better chance to win, we’ll start them.”

TV: 12 p.m. ET, ESPN2. LINE: Miami -10.

ABOUT MIAMI (1-1): The Hurricanes’ defense was a disappointment in the opener, but the unit came to play against Savannah State, grudgingly giving up 21 yards in the first half and finishing with just 78 yards allowed for the game. Just as important for a defense that thrives on being aggressive and opportunistic, Miami unveiled its new turnover chain after being shut out in that department against LSU, with two fumble recoveries, two interceptions and a recovered blocked punt. The Hurricanes got their ground game going as well against Savannah State with Travis Homer (13-for-72), DeeJay Dallas (5-for-48) and freshman Lorenzo Lingar (4-for-82, two TDs) spearheading a renewed running attack that needed to get away from Rosier being the main ball carrier, as he was (16 carries) in the opening loss to LSU.

ABOUT TOLEDO (1-0): With the departure of Logan Woodside, Toledo debuted a new starting quarterback in the opener and junior Mitchell Guadagni responded with 11-of-16 passing for 265 yards and three touchdowns to lead an explosive attack that finished with 603 yards. The Rockets’ defense also dominated VMI, giving up just 232 yards and forcing three turnovers but the Keydets lack the same speed and talent of the Hurricanes. “Whoever made that saying up, you always get better from Week 1 to Week 2, didn’t have to play the Hurricanes in Week 2, I guess,” Rockets head coach Jason Candle told reporters. “But we’re going to do our best to keep trying to get better and give it our best shot this weekend.”

EXTRA POINTS

1. The Hurricanes own a 2-0 record against the Rockets, with wins in 1987 and 2017.

2. Miami comes off its first shutout since 2015, when the Hurricanes held Bethune-Cookman scoreless in a 45-0 season-opening victory.

3. The Rockets are 11-1 at home under Candle, including a perfect 6-0 a year ago.

PREDICTION: Miami 40, Toledo 20

PREDICTION: MIAMI OHIO , CINCINNATI

Oddsmakers currently have the MIAMI OHIO listed as point favorites versus the CINCINNATI, while the game’s total is sitting at .

Cincinnati will try to extend its winning streak over Miami (Ohio) to 13 games when the teams meet in their annual rivalry game at Paul Brown Stadium in Cincinnati. The Bearcats won the past four games against Miami by seven points or less, most recently rallying from an 11-point deficit with three minutes left in a 21-17 victory last season.

Cincinnati is feeling confident after beating UCLA 26-17 at the Rose Bowl on Saturday, getting a strong game from running back Michael Warren II, who rushed for 141 yards and three touchdowns. Warren had extra touches because last season’s leading rusher, sophomore Gerrid Doaks, was a late scratch with a groin injury, leaving his availability in question against Miami as well. As of Tuesday, the starting quarterback for Cincinnati on Saturday was also still undecided between Hayden Moore, who started against UCLA, and freshman Desmond Ridder, who replaced Moore on the third offensive series and combined for 163 rushing and passing yards. Miami lost its season opener to Marshall 35-28, but a bright spot was quarterback Gus Ragland, the Cincinnati native who threw for 357 yards and three touchdowns, including two in the fourth quarter.

TV: 8 p.m. ET, ESPN3. LINE: Miami -1.5

ABOUT MIAMI (0-1): James Gardner was the most valuable player for the RedHawks last season after catching 47 passes for 927 yards and 11 touchdowns to also earn first-team All-MAC honors, but he’ll need to get more involved in the offense this week. He caught four passes for 67 yards in the season opener and Marshall kept the 6-foot-4 senior out of the end zone. Jack Sorenson benefited from the extra attention given to Gardner, snaring three passes for 106 yards, including a 19-yard touchdown for Miami’s first points of the season.

ABOUT CINCINNATI (1-0): Putting points on the board will be a stiff challenge against a Cincinnati defense that limited UCLA to 306 total yards. Cortez Broughton and Marquise Copeland are senior defensive tackles who can disrupt an offense in a big way. Broughton had 3 1/2 sacks in the season opener and forced a fumble that led to a tie-breaking safety with 9:45 to play. Copeland had a team-leading seven tackles against a UCLA offensive line that’s just as young and inexperienced as Miami’s.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Cincinnati and Miami have played every year since 1945, and Miami leads the series 59-56-7.

2. The first meeting between the schools came in 1888, the first college football game played in Ohio.

3. The Bearcats were one of four teams in the nation who did not record a touchback on a punt last season.

PREDICTION: Cincinnati 24, Miami 17
