The No. 5 Miami Hurricanes will host the No. 18 South Florida Bulls on Saturday.

Miami is off to a strong start to the season after defeating then-No. 6 Notre Dame 27-24 in Week 1. Legendary head coach Nick Saban noted the Hurricanes will be a tough team to beat this season thanks to their strong defensive unit and excellent quarterback play.

Quarterback Carson Beck transferred from Georgia to Miami last offseason. Many felt Beck was on the decline, but he's certainly played like he has something to prove through the first two weeks of the season.

Beck has thrown for 472 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions thus far. If he can remain healthy and showcase consistency, the sky is the limit for what Miami can accomplish this season.

If anyone was confident in what Beck could accomplish this season it was the Miami coaching staff. Beck has the second-highest NIL valuation among all college athletes at $4.7 million, according to On3 . He trails only Texas quarterback Arch Manning.

His valuation grew after defeating Notre Dame in Week 1. To start the season, Beck's NIL valuation was listed at $4.3 million. South Florida and Florida State are the only opponents left on Miami's schedule who are currently ranked. If the Hurricanes continue to play at a high level, a spot in the College Football Playoff seems like a strong possibility.

If so, Beck's NIL valuation will continue to increase.
