Game Notes

Hurricanes avoid one embarrassment, but not without being part of another embarrassment. Miami pulls away from the winless Golden Panthers to win 35-0.

The Hurricanes manage just a 7-0 lead against cross-town rival Florida International before Kyle Wright tosses a 5-yard TD pass to James Bryant. Bryant taunts after the play, and then following the PAT, several groups start pushing and fighting...

And then benches clear, and a full-scale brawl breaks out on the field. With 13 players being ejected, and additional suspensions handed down after the game.

After order is restored, Miami gradually pulls away, scoring again in the final minute of the 3rd quarter and twice more in the 4th.

Wright is the offensive star, if there was one, throwing for 3 TDs. But the 2 offenses combine for just 394 total yards.
