MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- There was a time when opposing teams were scared to travel to south Florida to play the University of Miami. Unfortunately for UM fans, that time passed long ago.Another sure sign of that came after 14th-ranked Virginia Tech defeated 24th-ranked UM, 31-17, Saturday, to win its ninth consecutive game and take the Atlantic Coast Conference Coastal Division title.
It was the 11th time in the last 16 years Virginia Tech has beaten Miami. The rivalry is becoming a rout.
Hokies senior defensive tackle John Graves and senior cornerback Rashad Carmichael smiled proudly and posed for pictures as they plucked grass from the orange and green 'U' emblem in the middle of the field at Sun Life Stadium and tucked it into the omnipresent black lunch pail the team has taken on the road every year since 1995.
