The biggest change comes at Miami’s most maligned offensive position, tight end, where Dyron Dye is the new first-stringer. Clive Walford is second string with Chase Ford listed at number three and Asante Cleveland nowhere to be found. Dye was suspended the first four games of the 2011 season and is getting his first start in game nine.
Lamar Miller remains the first-string running back, though Mike James is no longer the clear cut number two, splitting duties with Eduardo Clements.
Jonathan Feliciano is healthy again, after sustaining an injury celebrating a touchdown over Georgia Tech. Feliciano is back at first-string right tackle while Seantrel Henderson has returned to second-string left tackle behind Brandon Washington.
Defensively things look the same outside of Kacy Rodgers II moving from third-string cornerback to third-string safety.
The Canes and Blue Devils will square off at 3pm PT on November 5th at Sun Life Stadium. Miami is coming off a 28-21 Thursday night setback to Virginia while Duke gave Virginia Tech all it could handle in a 14-10 loss.
Saturday’s contest will be broadcast online at ESPN3.

Please go out and beat Duke! Duke has been knocking on VT and UM door! Be careful!!!!
The first step back to greatness is to consistently beat those you are supposed to beat. The Marylands, the Virgiinias, etc. Now it is Duke. We are supposed to beat them, but it will take a consistent effort. As AG says, the same every day. We win this one going away, and it will be another small step back to the top.
