The Miami Hurricanes got demolished in the first half of their game against Alabama on Saturday, and D’Eriq King did not have a particularly easy time.

King’s Hurricanes were down 17-0 early in the second quarter and had a 1st-and-10 from their 36. King was sacked by Christopher Allen, and Bama recovered the ball.

King remained in the game despite the strip-sack and injury check. Miami went 3-and-out in their following possession. King was sacked twice in the second series after the strip sack.

By that point, Miami was trailing 27-0. It didn’t take long to figure out that Miami was in for a long, tough game.
