It's Senior Day, and the 5-5 Canes hope to send their Seniors out the right way against the 3-6 USF Bulls. Just like last week, we're facing a 3-6 team that just recently snapped 6 game losing streak. Let's hope the similarities end there. After last week's debacle, UM still controls it's destiny in the Coastal division. The only remaining conference game is @ Duke next week. Lets take care of business this week and lock this thing up next week.
Here is your 2012 Senior Class:
Only 11 of the 17 are on scholarship, and only Mike James and Brandon McGee are starters. Davon Johnson has been a solid contributor this year. Ben Jones did OK before his injury. Botts and Wieclaw have had solid careers too. Then there's guys like Vaughn Telemaque and Darius Smith who seemed to fall out of favor with the coaching staff. Their playing time diminished greatly as the season went on. This just reinforces the point that we are a young team that could return 20 of 22 starters next year. And this very team is on the verge of winning it's first Division Crown since we joined the Conference. There isn't another home game until August 31st next year. So get off your *** and go.

4 storylines for UM in this game:
1. Can Duke continue being Duke?
2. Will the passing game have success despite all the injuries?
3. Can the defense get off the field on 3rd down?
4. Can the return of Perryman and Eddie Johnson make a difference?
Last year USF completely shut down our running game. Miller and James combined for just 63 yards on 25 carries, an average of 2.5 yards per carry. Duke is coming off back-to-back 100 yard games and will be needed to keep up his amazing play this week. We're down so many wideouts that walk-on Garrett Kidd made it onto the depth chart this week. Yikes. Thank god Eddie Johnson and Perryman are back. You'd think we wouldn't have anything to worry about since USF's starting QB and leading rusher are both out with injuries. Last week changed everything. Every team's offense is capable of lighting us up.
Last time they met: November 19, 2011. Miami won 6-3

Maybe this is the week where we make a ****** quarterback look ******. A man can dream can't he?
1. Gunter is settling into a starting role.
2. Duke Johnson is on pace to be the most prolific kickoff return man in Cane history.
