**Miami, FL** – The Miami Hurricanes are riding high, boasting a 3-0 record and an 8th place ranking in the country. However, head coach Mario Cristobal isn’t worried about his players getting complacent. In fact, he believes it’s impossible given their unique perspective.
Cristobal attributes this to the team’s awareness of the fickle nature of public opinion. “They’re very well aware of the same people that are giving them praise and showering them with all the good stuff were the same ones throwing dirt on them when things were being built piece by piece,” he explained.
This old-school mentality emphasizes focusing on what the team can control: their own performance. “We just want to get to work. We just want to get better. We just want to go play football,” Cristobal stated.
Despite the impressive start, the Hurricanes haven’t faced any truly dominant opponents yet. Their upcoming matchup against ranked Louisville on the road will be a crucial test of their mettle.
Cristobal remains focused on the task at hand, emphasizing that the team still has “a lot of work to do” to reach their full potential. While the team is acknowledging the praise, it’s clear that their primary focus remains on improvement and “playing the Miami Hurricane Standard.”
