This looks like a tough test and the SkinHawks will be loaded for bear after last year. KSU caught them on the backside of their trip to Hawaii last year. No such luck this year. The Flashes will need to step up the performance significantly from last week's debacle.

On the plus side, it looks like the injured are returning and with Alston, Bostick, and Buckosh back, the O has more weapons. When Alston was in the game last week, he made things happen. The D should also be improved with the return of Shannon Davis.

However, my prediction is 28 - 24 MUr. Too much Ben Rothesdinglhopper. Miami is talented, motivated, and playing at home.

For awhile there I thought that L. Kennedy might of had the right idea by dropping a big-time opponent and adding the two 1-AA teams to loosen the load around the Ohio State game. But we ended up fighting for our lives to pull that last one out; so any advantage of going into the Miami game we might of had is gone. Tough day for the
Flashes <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" /> !

Found this gem on at <a href="http://www.miamihawktalk.com" target="_blank">www.miamihawktalk.com</a> on their football board.......

" I agree that Cribbs is good, but he two of their three games were against 1-AA teams. Let's look at this stats at the end of the season. I would guess that Ben could be the top ranked passer in 1-A if we had played Cal Poly and New Hampshire.

I guess Ohio State shut Cribbs down.....


Also thought I'd include a pic of the toughest guys in Oxford....
