It's too bad Miami and Florida don't meet again on the football field until 2013, because it looks like Randy Shannon doesn't really admire Florida coach Urban Meyer.
Shannon basically called Meyer a punk after the Gators' 26-3 victory in the swamp on Saturday. Shannon wasn't upset over the loss or even the way his team played. Heck, the Canes were huge dogs and played pretty solid defense.
What has the Hurricanes coach ticked is Meyers decision to kick a when he decided to kick a field goal with 25 seconds remaining. This single kick has certainly added another controversial episode in this rivalry.
"Sometimes when you do things and people see what kind of person you really are, you turn a lot of people off," Shannon said Sunday in the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. "Take from that what you want. It helped us more than you will ever know."
Shannon is referring to the heated Florida recruiting battle that seems to be favoring Miami and Florida more than Florida State these days. Many of those outstanding recruits from a year ago were on display for Miami. Florida's experience was a little too much, but the future is bright in Coral Gables.
The 'Canes may be closer to returning to the top than many analysts thought just a few weeks ago. One thing is certain, the rest of the ACC took notice of that defense.
