DALLAS — The Hurricanes may be without key players when they face SMU on Saturday. Miami listed wide receiver CJ Daniels, cornerback OJ Frederique and defensive tackle Ahmad Moran Sr. as questionable for the game vs. the Mustangs. Daniels is Miami’s No. 2 wide receiver this season. He has 351 yards and a team-best six touchdown catches. Frederique, a sophomore, has started all seven of Miami’s games this year at cornerback.

Gators’ Vernell Brown III ruled out vs. Georgia, leaving UF without leading receiver

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on October 30, 2025. Posted in College Sports, Florida Gators, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Sports.

GAINESVILLE — Florida starting receiver Vernell Brown III will miss his first Georgia game with a shoulder injury, leaving the Gators without one their most dynamic weapons and productive players. The former Orlando Jones standout and tailback Jadan Baugh are tied with 726 all-purpose yards, including a team-high 451 receiving yards for Brown. Among the true freshman’s team-leading 32 receptions are three of UF’s four pass plays of at least 40 yards. The 5-foot-11 ¼, 178-pound Brown has been a bright spot on an offense averaging an SEC-low 17 points against FBS competition. But he injured a...

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on October 26, 2025. Posted in College Sports, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Hurricanes, Sports.

MIAMI GARDENS — The Hurricanes’ run game had been sleepy the last two games. Mark Fletcher Jr. woke it up. The junior running back rushed for 106 yards and a career-high three touchdowns to lead the No. 9 Hurricanes (6-1, 2-1 ACC) to a 42-7 win over Stanford (3-5, 2-3 ACC) at Hard Rock Stadium on Saturday. Miami got off to a slow start in the win, looking less like the team that won its first five games and more like the one that lost to Louisville last week. The Hurricanes moved down the field on their first drive, but Carter Davis missed a field goal at the end. Stanford got on the board...

(AP) — Blake Horvath rushed for four touchdowns, Coleman Cauley forced two big turnovers, and Navy scored 21 points in the fourth quarter to hold off Florida Atlantic 42-32 on Saturday night, extending the Midshipmen’s win streak to a program-tying 10.

After Alex Tecza scored from the 1 in the fourth quarter, Horvath added 19- and 31-yard TDs following a forced fumble and an...

Although it was just an exhibition game, UCF held its ground against No. 6 Duke for 24 minutes at Cameron Indoor Stadium on Tuesday night. However, the Blue Devils used a 16-2 run to secure a comfortable 96-71 win over the Knights.

Cameron Boozer, the son of former Blue Devils all-American Carlos Boozer, had a team-high 33 points...

GATORS PODCAST: Billy Napier fired as Florida pushes to reestablish program’s prominence (Ep. 304)

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on October 21, 2025. Posted in College Sports, Florida Gators, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Social, Sports.

Billy Napier was let go as the Gators turned the page on a failed four-year tenure ending with a 22-23 record and on track for a third losing season. UF is banking on longtime receivers coach Billy Gonzales to inspire a talented roster and ignite a lackluster offense during the remaining five regular-season games. All eyes, though, are on who will replace Napier at season’s end, with Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin atop everyone’s wish list. During the latest Swamp Things, Mark and Edgar weigh in on a decision everyone could see coming, how the Gators got here and what direction AD Scott...

Florida players ‘upset’ by Billy Napier’s ouster but understand inevitable decision

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on October 21, 2025. Posted in College Sports, Florida Gators, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Sports.

GAINESVILLE — Sophomore linebacker Myles Graham was honed in on homecoming, leaving him unprepared when UF fired Billy Napier a day after the Gators slipped by Mississippi State Saturday in the Swamp. “I honestly wasn’t thinking about that,” he said Monday. “I was just focused on the game plan. I was focused on getting a win, and we got that done.” A narrow 23-21 victory against a program with 15 straight SEC losses wasn’t enough to save Napier and avoid the inevitable. Picked to finish sixth in the SEC and a potential dark horse for a CFP bid, the Gators (3-4, 2-2 SEC) now aim to avoid the...

Billy Napier’s Gators slip by Mississippi State in possibly his final game at Swamp

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on October 19, 2025. Posted in College Sports, Florida Gators, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Sports.

GAINESVILLE — Florida coach Billy Napier sprinted toward the south end-zone tunnel at the Swamp, showered by boos rather than basking in the afterglow of a hard-earned victory. Moments earlier, the Gators sang the school’s alma mater in the stadium’s northeast corner to celebrate a dramatic 23-21 homecoming win against Mississippi State. With the Bulldogs in field-goal range, nose tackle Michai Boireau intercepted Blake Shapen’s pass to the flat at the Florida 29-yard line with 21 seconds remaining. The play sent their embattled coach out on a winning note, if this proves to be his final...

MIAMI GARDENS — After Miami quarterback Carson Beck threw his third pick of the game, the Hurricanes’ chances of coming back against Louisville appeared to be over. But that was not what the script said. He had another interception coming. The No. 2 Hurricanes were driving for a potential tying field goal or winning touchdown, but Beck threw his fourth interception, allowing Louisville to seal a win 24-21 at Hard Rock Stadium on Friday. After Beck’s third interception, Louisville tried to run with Isaac Brown, who had gashed UM all night. But Miami defensive back Keionte Scott forced a...
