It’s gameday, folks. A matchup that looked like an ACC Coastal championship game in the preseason is now a duel between two teams with broken dreams mired in disappointment. Miami will battle Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, with both teams nursing dreadful losing streaks. The U’s sits at four while the Hokies’ have lost three in a row. Miami can’t score, VT can’t play defense. Somethings got to give right?
Before we fire up the tailgates and settle in in front of the big screen for the game, here are some last-minute news and notes from around SOTU and the world wide web.

The Miami Hurricanes Ultra Boost will have a full release in December, so anyone and everyone can pickup the Canes-themed Adidas.
The Miami Herald has some key updates for the football team, both on the field and the recruiting trail. They break down the upcoming “terrifying” decision from no. 4 CB Tyrique Stevenson and a dubious 41-year streak that Miami might break today. Want a Turnover Chain bobblehead? You have some options now.
On the basketball front, ESPN and AP is reporting that 4-star G Isaiah Wong and 3-star F Anthony Walker are signing with the Canes. Wong is the 16th best SG in the nation and a big pickup for a team that has no true freshman on the roster this season.
That’s it for now Canes fans, remember...
