Showdown at the Swamp

Tonight's showdown at the Swamp has been the center of the circus known as College Gameday. Lee Corso donned a Gator head this morning in his prediction of a Florida win, which really wasn't a tough call. Let's take a look at a few things we can expect. More »

Miami Hurricanes SID Seems To Be A Bit Of A Monster

Today's entirely creepy and queasy story comes to us from ... well, from The U, which probably isn't entirely surprising. But this isn't a fun tale of coked up strippers or the Seventh Floor Crew. This one involves child porn and the school's child porn. More »

Love to Love You, Lovedale. Oh, And: WKU!

Storming The Floor wraps up the four early afternoon games.

#10 Davidson 82, #7 Gonzaga 76. Stephen Curry scored 40 on 8-11 three-point shooting in Raleigh, but it was the timely rebounding of Andrew Lovedale (13 boards to go with 12 points) that saved the Wildcats' bacon. Adam Morrison was in attendance, looking like the lead singer of a goth tribute band. No word yet on whether he cried. Oh, who are we kidding, of course he did. Davidson advances to face the Georgetown/UMBC winner.

Miami Hurricanes

1. The Saving Grace of South Florida Sports. South Florida is not exactly considered a college hoops hotbed. The Canes have long been an afterthought even for their own students and the community. But with every team associated with the Miami area deciding to suck all at once, the Canes basketball team has emerged from relative anonymity at the start of the season to be the saving grace of South Florida sports in 2008. The Canes' 22 wins this season are more than the Hurricanes football team, Dolphins and Heat combined. It will also most likely rival the number of wins the Marlins pick up this season. More »

Give Me Your Concrete Hand First; Fare You Well

As you know, tonight's Virginia-Miami game marks the end of Orange Bowl Stadium. The Hurricanes will move to Dolphin Stadium next season to begin a planned 25-year stay there, while the Orange Bowl will be blown to smithereens and sold on eBay. Thus, the end. More »

At Last, Ned Has His Opportunity At Revenge

Sure, you can talk all you want about Michigan-Notre Dame — and the apparent curse of Bo Schembechler — but the real story this weekend is what's happening at the Orange Bowl on Saturday. That's right: It's the return of Ned! More »

FIU Must Protect This House!

You might remember, during Miami announcer Lamar Thomas' insane rant during the Miami-Florida International fight last year, when he said something to the effect of, "you don't come into our house pulling that," or some similar nonsense. Well guess what, Lamar? Ned and his band of FIU faithful are actually going to close down your house. Literally. More »

Revisiting The Seventh Floor Crew

Every once in a while, we like to check in on our old friends of the Seventh Floor Crew. We could listen to the ole Miami Hurricanes hip-hopping all day long, and it's always nice to see what they're up to these days. More »

Welcome Back, Luther Campbell

Having 2 Live Crew lead dog and longtime Hurricanes booster Luther Campbell away from the U for so many years ... it just seems wrong, doesn't it? It's like Pete Rose being out of baseball, except Luther Campbell is much better for the planet. More »

He's Afraid The Defensive Line Will Be Quite Operational When Your Friends Arrive

A friend who's a big Star Wars dork — you're shocked that we have such friends, we're sure — forwards us this creative concoction put together by an inventive (and, certainly, lonely) Star Wars aficionado and college football watcher. More »

The Seventh Floor Crew Takes Over The NFL

At the end of the first round of the NFL Draft on Saturday, the defending NFC champion Chicago Bears drafted tight end Greg Olsen. If you don't recognize Olsen's name, you can hark back to the halcyon days of November 2005, when Olsen dropped some beats as a member of the Seventh Floor Crew. (He's not the only one; the Panthers drafted fellow member Jon Beason.) More »

Reeeeeeeeematchhh!!!!!

It was inevitable, it was preordained, it was destined and placed here only to make us happy and the world a better place: Looks like Miami and Florida International, who have a bit of history, are set to butt heads, crutches and Hell 2 Da Naw once again, next year. It's October 6. It's the Orange Bowl. Let's do this shit. More »
