No. 7 Miami survives Virginia Tech to remain unbeaten after Hail Mary TD overturned • Pride top scorer Barbra Banda likely to set club record against vulnerable Dash
Sentinel Sports Final Saturday, September 28, 2024 | | |
| | | | | The wait is over. Colorado-UCF is here. The Knights are favored. See why. ... The Hurricanes are going deep. I know, they struggled against Virginia Tech, but Georgia struggled to win by one point vs. Kentucky a few weeks ago. Every championship-level team survives a scare and pulls out a miraculous game. The 12-team playoff makes a loss less impactful, of course, but Cam Ward winning the Heisman can be tipped by the regular-season record. Everyone likes to see the 0 in the loss column to bolster their position ... 1 more goal for Barbra Banda, who missed four games because of visa issues, and she'll surpass Marta (13) for most goals in a single season with the Pride. And given the opponent is Houston, she might double her total goals ... FSU is in danger of getting embarrassed if they're not careful. ACC newcomer SMU can score. FSU couldn't score with Madonna. The defense has to play lights out otherwise the offense can 't keep pace and they're right back to where they were before the win over Cal. ... The NCAA, which I know from personal experience during my time in Indy, was never prepared for NIL and the fallout and is demanding Congress save them doing their jobs. Congress should respond: "We'll help clean this mess up for you, but after we're done we wish you well in your future endeavors." Why does the NCAA exist if it doesn't have the foresight or backbone to govern? How can they justify their own paychecks with such an ask? This is what your company looks like when it had no plans in place or a single contingency for NIL. Sounds like a you problem. The NCAA failed to lead on the issue. | | | | The Knights have 88 confirmed prospects visiting for the Knights’ Big 12 game vs. Colorado this weekend, including 23 Orlando-area prospects, | | | | | The last snap came from the Miami 30 with 3 seconds remaining. Virginia Tech quarterback Kyron Drones dropped back 11 yards and lofted the ball toward the left corner of the end zone. Awaiting it were no fewer than seven players, and five wound up in the scrum for the ball. | | | | | Orlando's defense also has been impenetrable all season long, and its improving as the season draws to a close. | | | | | The Mustangs are 16th in the FBS in scoring at 42.3 points per game. The Seminoles have scored 39 total points in their last three games. | | | | | The Knights believe their come-from-behind win at TCU two weeks ago will help them navigate the remainder of the schedule. | | | | | Week 6 of high school football in the Orlando area includes games Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday — pending storm Helene's path. Tuesday is Winter Park at area No. 1 Jones. Friday has St. Thomas Aquinas at Bishop Moore, lots of district games, including Seminole, TFA, Lake Mary, DP, Edgewater. | | | | | Going back is special for Lions coach Oscar Pareja, a former player and the head coach of FC Dallas from 2014-18. | | | | | After 18 holes of the Windermere vs. The World boys golf event, TFA and Circle Christian are tied for first with Bishop Moore close behind. | | | | | I'm not willing to toss aside more than two years of training and investment based on three poor quarters in a Seattle road game in which no one played well. | | | | | Right-hander Taj Bradley (8-11) got the win, going six scoreless innings while giving up three hits and a walk with seven strikeouts and a hit batter. | | | | | The president of the NCAA lashed out at "evidence of dysfunction in today's NIL environment" while reiterating his desire to see Congress create national guidelines to shape so-called name, image and likeness endorsement deals that are reshaping college sports. | | | |
