For the second and last time in the foreseeable future, the Hurricanes and Golden Panthers will meet in a local matchup. Last year's game featured a massive brawl that caught the attention of the nation and branded the programs in an abominable light. Both teams promise to play nice. Hurricanes athletic director Paul Dee and FIU athletic director Pete Garcia, first and foremost, want a clean, fight-free game.

In a word: no. F.I.U. has a whole team of players that grew up idolizing the Canes but just were not talented enough to play there. I am sure they have a lot of "Me Against The World" attitude going into that one.

According to Gary Sheffield, black athletes can't be controlled, so a repeat is very possible.
