Miami and Florida International Brawl

[Bugeater]

Sportscenter is starting now, should finally be able to catch the replay of this.

[Bugeater]

Damn, I finally saw it. Criminal charges should be filed on both sides.

[Mecca]

Why does everyone want criminal charges filed......FIU instigated the fight.

I'd take Brandon Merriweather on my team he's a good player and atleast if someone ****s up one your players he'll do something about it that's more than we have now.

How often do we see a player with character concerns this serious, not continue to exhibit those mistakes or that type of behavior upon entering the professional level? Not often. Merriweather also had an incident with a gun this past summer, and he's not talented enough that you can overlook this type of thing.

His gun incident wasn't illegal, I like how just using a gun at all makes him a bad guy. The police said he used his gun legally, which he also has a permit for.

No what makes him a bad guy is the fact that he stomped repeatedly on a guy who was on the ground.

But whatever.

What a disgusting display. A complete embarrassment, and those assholes were acting like it was the greatest thing they'd ever been involved in. Reminded me of a kid who just laid his first dookie in the toilet.

Sadly, I can't say I'm shocked.

Yeah, I guess after Trent took the kill shot from Geathers, Hicks should have run on the field swinging his helmet as a weapon and stomping on the legs of players on the ground.




Thugs. Both teams. The sad part is, several of the players who were most responsible didn't even get ejected.....

You're a f**cking idiot.

I loved it when Penn State humiliated those army fatigue wearing, insult hurling, dinner crashing, punks in the 86 championship game. Miami players' behavior during that week leading up to the game was disgraceful.

It's that type of punkish behavior that is uniquely Miami Hurricane football. It's been a very distinct tradition. Kellen, "the warrior," Winslow, Jr. summed it up best with his tirade, IMO.

That's the way they've been teaching it at the "THE U" for years.

I would have to say that you just might be the idiot.

Here are a few facts about the game that most of your jackballs know nothing about.

FIU had three late hit penalties on the Canes during the first three quarters. One they slammed the QB, the other they late Hit James out of bounds and the other they pounded Kenny Phillips late. Those are the two stars of the UM offense and the best player on Defense. I don't think it was by chance they took shots at UMs best players.

The footage of the fight has already revealed that FIU started it when their player took a swing at Cyrim Wimbs. Then they took a run at the UM HOLDER and slammed him like a rag doll. After that it was on and the benches cleared.

For all of those saying UM is thugs, you might want to take a look at FIU as well. They not only had more player ejected, they started the fight.

On to the UM players that I saw that should be suspended from a few games. Reddick who swung his helmet is a complete idiot. he should not see the field again this year. That was a cheap act and should not be tolerated. The other was Merriweather. He is clearly seen stomping a guys thigh. While that might not quite be the most heinous act that happened in that fight it was visible and should be punished as well.

Let's not forget the one FIU player that was out there swinging a crutch. I guess he gets a pass from you people because he is not a Cane. Since he was swinging at the Canes it is OK.

Overall it was a terrible scene but I can tell you if someone started a fight when I played I would have been there to back up my guys as well. If some jackoff took a run at a Chiefs player and the entire sideline just watched him get pummeled you would be calling them pussies. Once again since it is UM we all know they are thugs.

In the grand scheme it doesn't really matter what people think of UM. You people have hated them forever and that is OK with me. I would it rather be a small number of fans who support them.

I could have swore I saw a couple of KU backers ripping the canes. If I am wrong was your school just not caught for cheating? Did you not have a player go commando and try to bust up some Taco Bell drive thru worker? Check your own closets before opening your mouths all the time.

You are 100% correct, but remember the taunting by the Miami player that scored the touchdown. The NCAA needs to come down HARD on both of these schools. But for the Cane fan to try and defend what his team did is what got me going. There was no excuse for what either team did. This isn't a 1st for Miami, as far as I'm concerned they should be place on probation and go to no bowl game this year or next, but we know that won't happen because it would cost the NCAA and the ACC money. FIU should recieve the same punishment.
