Miami parts ways with defensive coordinator Lance Guidry after 2 seasons
Associated PressCORAL GABLES, Fla. — Miami parted ways with defensive coordinator Lance Guidry on Tuesday, after the Hurricanes failed to make the College Football Playoff and allowed 42 points in each of their final two games of the season. But they went 0-2 in their last two games of this season when putting up those big offensive numbers — blowing a 21-0 lead and losing 42-38 at Syracuse to miss a trip to the Atlantic Coast Conference title game and a likely CFP berth, then losing 42-41 to Iowa State in the Pop-Tarts Bowl. Miami is 27th nationally in yards allowed per game this season, but ranked 70th in points allowed per game and registered only 18 takeaways in 13 games. Miami was 97th nationally in points allowed per game in November and December, then gave up 10 or more yards on 35 different plays in the losses to Syracuse and Iowa State.
