BLACKSBURG, Va. -- Miami lost 31-7 to the Hokies in what was the Canes' worst performance in three games this season, and offensive tackle Jason Fox still doesn't believe Virginia Tech is the better team.
In fact, he said the Hokies made plays early in the game that got their confidence up and "let them feel like they could play with us."
"In all reality, I don't think they're a better team than us," Fox said. "I think they played better than us."
Miami couldn't stop the run, it couldn't run the ball, and it couldn't protect quarterback Jacory Harris for the first time this season. That doesn't mean, though, that the Hurricanes doubt their abilities. Miami tight end Jimmy Graham said the Hurricanes are "10 times better" than they played Saturday, and that they never even practiced that poorly before.
