Rumor has it Miami likes it. We can start our walk-ons and rest the Varsity and JV

Of course, but we can at least get an Iowa. FSU got Iowa. Heck, our ACC title team got Michigan State. We've played Michigan, Ohio State. But, we've also played Nebraska (twice), Northwestern and now Rutgers.

Face it, half of Florida is NJ, NY, PA transplants. Good TV ratings win out for the ACC...may also be attractive for recruiting.

Disappointing, to say the least. Moveover, the game is scheduled for the last night with 5 other games challenge games, including UNC - Indiana, Purdue - Louisville, and Ohio State - Virginia. We will clearly be receiving VERY little media coverage for this game.

Most of the basketball insiders seem to predict that our Canes will be somewhere in the 5-7 range in the ACC (clearly behind Duke, UNC, UVA and Louisville), and somewhere near Syracuse, FSU. Rutgers is 14th in just about every B1G prediction.

While it is still very early, this game might project as the most lopsided game in the challenge this year, with the game being in the BUC and if Coach L. can get the new kids playing well early.
