Miami vs. Ball State game enters weather delay due to lightning
Saturday’s game between Miami and Ball State has been in a weather delay for more than one hour with no end in sight. The Hurricanes and Cardinals were originally set for a 3:30 p.m. ET kickoff at Hard Rock Stadium.
However, after lightning was spotted in the area, the game was pushed back until 3:54 p.m. ET. It has since been pushed back twice more and was thought to be starting at 4:45 p.m. ET. Unfortunately the Miami football account on X provided another update saying it was delayed yet again.
Eventually, another kick time was given and the game got underway at 5:55 p.m. ET.
Miami is looking to start off the season 3-0. The Hurricanes are coming off of a dominant 56-9 victory against Florida A&M in Week 2.

Quarterback Cam Ward has been electric through the first couple of games. He has so far thrown for 689 yards and six touchdowns to one interception so far.
Cam Ward: Miami is ‘not even close’ to playing its best football
With a talented offense, led by transfer quarterback Cam Ward, the Miami Hurricanes have gotten off to a quick 2-0 start. With that, there are expectations that Miami could compete for the ACC Championship and the College Football Playoff.
Despite that success, Ward recently shared that he doesn’t think the Hurricanes are playing close to their best football yet.
“No. We’re not even close to playing our best football,” Cam Ward said. “If you go back and really watch the tape from the first game, I would say there was a minimum of ten bad plays just from a quarterback and receiver standpoint. And from this last game, the biggest takeaways were the fourth downs, and that was us just not doing little things. So, that’s something we have to clean up.”
