According to the Miami Herald, Miami may be closer to scheduling another BCS opponent in a Labor Day opener in 2010, forcing the Hurricanes' planned opener with Florida A&M on Sept. 4 to not occur or be rescheduled. Further complicating the matter is that date conflicts with a Florida Marlins home game, according to baseball schedules released Tuesday.
The Marlins have no home game on Labor Day, Sept. 6. That means the Hurricanes could play in prime time that night, possibly against Florida State or Virginia Tech.
Miami isn't expected to decide if it'll participate in another Labor Day matchup for several months.
Miami visited Florida State on Labor Day to open this season.
The Marlins will continue sharing Land Shark Stadium with the Miami Dolphins and the Hurricanes through 2011.
This is simple. Here's a sample letter for FAMU to send U Miami:
