My feelings seemed distantly familiar as I was shuffling towards the Hard Rock Stadium exit after watching the Hurricanes get dismantled on homecoming by chief rival Florida State 45-3. Sure, there had been plenty of disappointing showings from Miami over the years - FIU at Marlins Park; Miami’s thrashing in their lone appearance in the ACC Championship Game; Losing 58-0 to Clemson leading to Al Golden’s termination; Louisiana Tech shutting out Miami in the Independence Bowl. The list goes on...

But after some soul searching it occurred to me...this is 2007 all over again.
