Canes Drop Heartbreaker To Hokies

One defensive stand was again the difference and in the end, Miami took a late lead and surrendered it just as quickly en route to a 38-35 loss in Blacksburg on Saturday.

Jacory Harris was 13-of-21 on the day, throwing for 267 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions while running back Lamar Miller put up 166 yards on 18 carries with one score. Miami had 519 total yards on the day in the loss.

The difference again was the defense, or lack thereof, as the Canes allowed 482 total yards and let Logan Thomas have the game of his career, going 23-of-25 for 310 yards with three touchdowns. Jarrett Boykin was the primary target, with seven receptions for 120 yards and on the ground David Wilson ran for 128 yards on 23 carries.

Penalties again reared their ugly head, with Miami getting tripped up 9 times for 84 yards.

The Canes drop to 2-3 on the season and prepare for a road trip to North Carolina next Saturday. Stay tuned for full recap coming Sunday.
