One of these things is not like the other.
Miami survived the most brutal four-game stretch anyone in college football will see this year, putting together a 3-1 record and climbing to No. 11 in the polls entering this Saturday’s showdown with FAMU; the Canes first unranked opponent of the season.
No disrespect to the undefeated Rattlers, but this one really doesn’t even warrant a preview. FAMU is saying all the right things regarding staying upset-minded and the media has played their part, revisiting the Rattlers’ 16-13 upset of the Canes three decades back, before Miami was “Miami”. That being said, FAMU lacks the athletes to compete with UM and this one should be over by halftime.
LeRoy Vann is a hell of a punt returner and quarterback Curtis Pulley, a Kentucky transfer, definitely has some game. Still, it’s Miami and FAMU. Outside of a halftime performance by the band and some Cane-related offensive highlights, there won’t be much to see on Saturday at the Shark.
Miami fans, it’s time to exhale. Head out to the Shark today for the ‘scrimmage’, root on your Canes, pray for an injury-free contest… and cross your fingers that freshman Mike James has a breakout game in place of Graig Cooper.
