→ Miami snapped a three-game losing streak last week with a 24-14 win at home versus Buffalo.

→ Tuesday will be the 94th meeting between the two schools in the annual Battle of the Bricks.

→ The contest is crucial for both schools in the MAC East race. A Miami win would move the RedHawks to 3-2 in the MAC with the tie breaker over the Bobcats and a contest with Akron (currently 3-1 in the MAC) the following week.

Tale of The Tape

last meeting

ohio 17miAmi 7 Oct. 1, 2016 Oxford, Ohio Attendance: 22,212

Freshman quarterback Noah Wezensky’s entrance spurred a second-half comeback effort, but Miami University’s football team was unable to prevail in the Battle of the Bricks, falling, 17-7, to Ohio University at Yager Stadium.

Wezensky, who was forced into the game following an injury to Billy Bahl, went 14-of-25 passing for 154 yards and one touch-down. The Miami offense outgained Ohio, 238 yards to 197, but the Bobcats controlled possession with over 31 minutes on the field.

Career TouchdownsBuFFAlo reCApKenny Young enjoyed a career day while the Miami defense allowed just 271 yards as the RedHawks topped Buffalo 24-14 at Yager Stadium. Miami outgained Buffalo 349-271 on the day and forced a pair of turnovers as well. Young led all players with a career-high 125 yards on the ground along with two scores while Bahl hit 13-of-20 passes for 177 yards.

preseAson honorsOver the past four years, Miami had not received much attention in preseason honors. That has changed in a big way this year. Heath Harding was named to three different watch lists (Bronco Nagurski, Jim Thorpe and Bednarik), Danny Godlevske was honored by the Rimington Trophy, James Gardner earned two awards (Wuerffel and Biletnikoff) and Ryan Smith was named to the John Mackey Watch List.

rosTer BreAkdoWnWhile Miami’s roster is finally starting to trend toward upper-classmen, the youth of this roster is still shocking. Coming into the 2017 season Miami has 124 players on its roster and just 12 seniors. Roster breakdown includes: Sixth-year seniors (1), fifth-year seniors (5), seniors (6), red-shirt juniors (19), juniors (13), red-shirt sophomores (16), sophomores (9), red-shirt freshmen (22) and freshmen (33).

Close To 7-1?You are what your record says you are, but the RedHawks could easily be 7-1 this season, including 4-0 in MAC play with a few breaks.

vs. marshall: Miami fell 31-26 to open the season to Marshall. In the loss the RedHawks allowed two kick returns for touchdowns and a pick-6. Even with those breakdowns, Miami had a 41-yard Hail Mary to end the game that just fell incomplete.

Career starts Bend BuT don’T BreAkMiami’s red zone defense has still been stellar this season. Through eight games Miami has allowed just 21 trips into the red zone and in those 21 trips allowed nine touchdowns (.429) and 15 total scores (.714) while forcing three turnovers. Overall, Miami’s red zone defense ranks 14th in the country.

lAnd oF no reTurnHelping to limit those red zone trips is Miami’s punt coverage team, which has allowed just eight return yards all season. Of Kyle Kramer’s 43 punts, just six have resulted in returns, the longest being 10 yards last week versus Buffalo. Overall, Miami is allowing 1.3 yards per punt return this season, which ranks 10th in the country.

BAhl sTeps in And deliversFilling in for an injured Gus Ragland, junior quarterback Billy Bahl nearly led Miami to a come-from-behind victory over BGSU. Bahl completed 8-of-17 passes for 119 yards and drove the Red and White down to the BGSU 1-yard line before Miami put the ball on the ground for the key turnover. Last week he threw for 177 yards in the win over Buffalo, Miami’s first win without Gus Ragland as its starting quarterback since the season finale at UMass in 2015.

noThinG neWIf Ragland were to miss any significant time, expect Billy Bahl to fill his shoes nicely. Bahl has made 14 career starts for the Red and White and completed 200-of-412 passes for 3,033 yards and 18 touchdowns in his career. Bahl started Miami’s first five games back in 2016, throwing for 1,154 yards and eight touchdowns before suffering an injury.

In Young’s last four MAC games he has averaged 103.0 yards per game on the ground, posting 91 yards and a touchdown at Central Michigan, 113 yards against BGSU, 83 yards at Kent State and 125 yards and two touchdowns in the win over Buffalo. Young was named MAC East Offensive Player of the Week following the UB contest.

Godlevske was on the preseason watch list for the Rimington Trophy, given to the nation’s top center. Maurice Thomas suffered a season-ending injury versus UC and was Miami’s kickoff specialist.

nATe BeCker reTurns From inJuryWhile tight end Ryan Smith has been getting much of the national pub to begin the 2017 season, tight end Nate Becker was actually predicted to start last year before suffering a season ending injury during the 2016 fall camp. Becker is now healthy, giving the RedHawks multiple options at the tight end position.

diAmond reTurns For sixTh yeArMiami got some great news from the NCAA last spring, when it was announced that Jordan Diamond would be granted a sixth year of eligibility, due to missing two seasons because of injury. Diamond, a transfer from Auburn, started all 13 games at guard last season in his first year with the RedHawks.

BlessinG in disGuiseBack in 2015, Heath Harding was battling an injury earlier in the season that he just couldn’t shake, which forced him to miss the final nine games of that season. While missing the season was frustrating for the Dayton, Ohio native, there was also a major positive. The injury allowed Harding to redshirt the 2015 season, giving him a fifth year. Without that injury in 2015, Harding would not currently be a part of this 2017 season.

Game 9 • miami at OhiOMiami University, known world-wide as the “Cradle of Coaches,” contributed four alumni to Sporting News Magazine’s 50 Greatest Coaches, dominating all other universities.

PAUL BROWN (`30) was named as the 12th greatest coach of all time by The Sporting News (TSN). Miamians WALTER ALSTON (`35) and BO SCHEMBECHLER (`51) ranked 35th and 36th on the list, while ARA PARSEGHIAN (`49) was selected as sports’ 44th great-est coach. A fifth man with Miami ties, WOODY HAYES, ranked 27th on TSN’s list. Hayes served as Miami’s football coach from 1949-50.

The August 3, 2009 publication asked a panel of 118 top coaches, media and sports administrators to choose the Top 50 list.

Altogether, only four universities contributed more than one alumnus to the list. Mi-ami’s four alumni topped Alabama (Paul “Bear” Bryant and Bobby Bowden), Minnesota (Bud Wilkinson and Herb Brooks) and Kansas (Dean Smith and Adolph Rupp), which each had two alums ranked among the Top 50. Purdue graduate John Wooden, the famed “Wizard of Westwood”, was ranked as the No. 1 coach of all time.

Game 9 • miami at OhiO

Chuck martinhead Coachsecond seasonCoaching record: 88-38record at miami: 14-31milliken, 1990

In his career, Chuck Martin has more than 20 years in college coaching experience, including 10 years as a head coach. He has twice been named the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) National Coach

of the Year, earning the honor in 2005 and 2006, and has coached in seven national championship games in the past 16 seasons. In addition to his head coaching experience, Martin has served as a coordinator on both sides of the ball. Of those seven national championship game appearances, he has been a part of four national championship wins, with two titles under his direction as head coach/offensive coordinator and one as a defensive coordinator.

The one thing missing from Martin’s resume, was a program builder. Martin may have answered that question. Martin, who was named the 36th head football coach in Miami history on Dec. 3, 2013, had his hands full when he took over the helm of the RedHawks program.

Miami had just gone 0-12 the year prior to Martin’s arrival and many believed the roster was one of the worst in the Mid-American Conference. In three years, Martin’s vision of returning Miami football to greatness is in full swing and many believe the RedHawks have already arrived.

While rebuilding the roster from the ground up, Miami took its lumps in 2014 and 2015, going just 2-10 and 3-9. 2016 did not start out much better as Mi-ami lost its first six games of the season, but that is when things changed.

Martin would orchestrate something that had never been done in college football. Miami rattled off six straight wins to become the first team in college football history to begin a season 0-6 and finish 6-6. The six-game win streak also moved Miami to 6-2 in the MAC, finishing in a tie for first in the East and helped the RedHawks advance to the St. Petersburg Bowl versus Mississippi State, Miami’s first bowl appearance since 2010.

The Miami rebuild would be complete, adding another highlight to Martin’s resume.

Prior to joining Miami, Martin spent four seasons at Notre Dame, serving as the offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach (2012-13) and defensive backs/recruiting coordinator (2010-11). In 2012, he orchestrated an offense that played in the BCS National Championship game versus Alabama. In 2011, he was named one of the top 25 recruiters in the nation by ESPN.com and was named to Rivals.com’s Second-Team Assistant Coach Dream Team.

In Martin’s two years calling plays, Notre Dame combined to go 20-5 overall and was one of the most balanced offenses in the country, averaging 26.4 points, 170.0 rushing and 235.6 passing per game.

Prior to arriving in South Bend, Martin was head coach and offensive coordi-nator for Grand Valley State University from 2004-2009 and compiled a 74-7 (.914) record, including an impressive 16-4 record in the NCAA Division II Play-offs. He and the Lakers won back-to-back national championships in 2005 and 2006 and finished runner-up in 2009. He directed Grand Valley State to 48 consecutive regular-season victories and 45 straight wins in the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC). He also guided the Lakers to a Di-vision II record 40-game winning streak from 2005-07. Martin produced seven Associated Press First-Team All-America players as head coach.

At GVSU, Martin’s offenses averaged 35.1 points, 208 rushing and 427 total yards per game. The Lakers ranked among the top-25 nationally in total of-fense in five of six seasons and ranked in the top-27 in scoring offense in all but one season. In that time, his offense scored at least 30 points in 56 of 81 games and scored at least 40 points in 34 contests.

Many of those offenses were led by quarterbacks who were developed under Martin. In six years, GVSU produced four Harlon Hill finalists, given annually to the NCAA Division II Player of the Year (Cullen Finnerty in 2006 and Brad Iciek from 2007-09). In that span, Laker quarterbacks threw 184 touchdown passes and just 41 interceptions.

His offenses were not just about the quarterback. In all six seasons, he pro-duced a 1,000-yard rusher. In four of those seasons, a running back finished as a top-10 rusher in Grand Valley State history.

Before becoming head coach, Martin served as the defensive coordinator for the Lakers in 2003, helping GVSU win a national championship. Martin’s de-fense allowed just nine total points in the final three games of the playoff run and among the ranked top-10 nationally in scoring, rushing and total defense that season.

As has been the case in most recent Battle for the Victory Bell tilts, the Miami football team came achingly close to bringing the bell back to Oxford before a Cincinnati rally.

The RedHawks (1-2) held a 17-6 lead with under five minutes remaining, but the Bearcats scored 15 points down the stretch to prevail 21-17 at Yager Stadium on Saturday night.

A 14-yard interception return by Malik Clements with 1:07 left in regulation proved the winning score as UC completed the comeback.

The Miami football team’s offense showed some poise in hos-tile territory, but Notre Dame’s rushing attack proved too much as the RedHawks fell 52-17 on Saturday night.

Miami (2-3) posted 377 yards of offense and held the ball for over 35 minutes, but early turnovers proved costly as Notre Dame (4-1) won the second all-time meeting between the schools.
