Football - FAMU Rattlers vs. U of Miami Hurricanes (away)

  • 03 Sep 2016
  • Miami Gardens, Florida/Sun Life Stadium

Time - TBA

The Rattlers open the season in South Florida against the Miami Hurricanes.  FAMU opened the series against the Canes with a 16-13 win in 1979, but since have failed to hold the Hurricanes close.  The Rattlers last faced the Canes in 2014, dropping the contest 41-7.  This game will have heightened visibility, as it will mark the first game for new head coach Mark Richt.  FAMU coach Alex Wood and Richt face off for the first time in opposing orange and green teams.  Ironically, Richt was a member of the 1979 Canes, while Wood is a former Miami Hurricanes assistant coach.
