We love to hate them here in South Florida, those annoying 'chopping' Seminole fans. Be there on Saturday, November 15th as we take on our arch nemesis, the Florida State Seminoles, at Sun Life Stadium. The time of the game was still to be determined but it matters not because night or day, this is the game of the season, regardless of what either team's record is. And considering that UM is due for a win from these garnet and gold chopaholics, you won't want to miss it. Cheer loud and proud.
