Jacksonville put a scare into Miami
Jacksonville has has major struggles as a program in recent years, but they may be a big stronger this season. The Dolphins are 3-2, but one of those losses came to a strong Miami team with the final score being 74-71. They're capable of challenging a good team. Dolphins' guard Edyn Battle has been fantastic so far, averaging 21 points per game. Any time a mid-major has a player who can score like that, they've got a shot to spring an upset.
