What a way to kick off the 2009 college football season for the Hurricanes!

Gotdamn, what a game! I cant lie, my heart was racing 90% of the game. This game was one for the ages! One of the most exciting games between the two storied rival programs. Jacory Harris played LIGHT OUT, ever after injuring his throwing arm. He went 21-34 with 386 yards and a pair of picks and touchdowns. He also threw a 40-yd pass that lead to the game winning run by Graig Cooper. Jacory won ACC Player of the Week along with his team mate Brandon Harris. Overall I'd give our performance a B-. We were stellar on offense and special teams, but the defense needs to tighten up. They let Ponder (FSU's quarterback) and the rest of the FSU running game run all over them at pivotal moments in the game. But, the defense did step-up at the end of the game when they needed to.

I would post the highlight, but ESPN doesn't let you embed videos...wack -_-

Its all about the U!
