Miami falls apart, benches Tyler Van Dyke in stunning loss to Middle Tennessee

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — The University of Miami’s only week off of the 2022 football season will not be an uplifting one for the No. 25 and soon-to-be-unranked Hurricanes.

In UM’s final nonconference game of the season, the 25 1/2-point favorite Hurricanes were upset, 45-31, by Middle Tennessee State for their second consecutive loss and a 2-2 record as they head toward eight consecutive Atlantic Coast Conference games.

Quarterback Tyler Van Dyke had the worst game of his career, completing 16 of 32 passes for 138 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions on his first two passes — one of them returned for a touchdown. He was replaced by sophomore Jake Garcia at 7:55 of the third quarter with UM trailing 31-10.
