MIAMI – Florida International University’s football game Friday night against Marshall has been postponed because of a “lack of available scholarship student-athletes,” the school announced. FIU says the decision follows Conference USA’s guidelines for dealing with the virus “which require a threshold for the game to be played safely. The shortage is due to quarantining of COVID-19 positive tests and contact tracing, as well as injuries.”A new date for the game will be announced at a later time, the school says. FIU is 0-3 this season and also had its Oct. 17 game postponed because of coronavirus cases within the football program. The next scheduled game is Nov. 7 at UTEP.

Gutsy call propels Timber Creek to victoryAfter scoring a touchdown with 45 seconds remaining in the game, Timber Creek in suburban Orlando still trailed DeLand 21-20 in a Class 8A, Region 1 quarterfinal game on Friday. Instead of playing for a game-tying extra point, Timber Creek put its season on the line by going for a 2-point conversion.

He finished the game 15 of 22 for 253 yards and those record six touchdowns. Meanwhile, Miami won a third straight game and improved to 6-4 on the season and 4-3 in the ACC. Williams regained his starting job from N'Kosi Perry in a win at Pittsburgh and hasn't looked back in leading the Canes on a much-needed winning streak.

Middle Tennessee (3-5, 2-2 Conference USA) lost four of its last five games prior to demolishing FIU (4-4, 2-3), which was on a three-game win streak. O'Hara accounted for three scores, as he threw for one and ran for two more while amassing 159 yards rushing. McDonald rushed for 138 yards and one score -- a 92-yard dash late in the final quarter. They recovered four fumbles while limiting the Panthers to 89 yards rushing for the game.

Local 10 News reporters Ian Margol and Liane Morejon are going to ride and die with the Hurricanes this season. Both are picking Miami to win at Pittsburgh, even after the Hurricanes were upset by Georgia Tech at home last weekend to fall to 3-4. Local 10 sports reporter Clay Ferraro may surprise a few with his pick of Michigan over Notre Dame, but it's wise not to underestimate the Wolverines when they're playing at the "Big House." Right now Clay and Local 10 sports director Will Manso are all tied up for first place in the Local10.com weekly college football picks, though Ian isn't too far behind. Liane will likely need a November of surprises to keep her in the race.

The group is all in on the trio of teams from South Florida, but the same can't be said about Florida State. The Seminoles are a unanimous pick to lose at Wake Forest this weekend. They should be able to withstand a struggling Georgia Tech squad Saturday at Hard Rock Stadium. But he won't make any headway this weekend with identical picks. Liane Morejon is hedging her bets on Michigan as she tries to narrow the gap between first and last place.

The Gators and Seminoles may be rivals, but they've got something in common this weekend -- they're both playing the underdog roles. For the second consecutive weekend, Florida has to prove its worth in a Southeastern Conference battle of undefeated teams. Meanwhile, unranked Florida State will have a tall task at the other "Death Valley" against No. The group was unanimous in picking the Tigers (as in, the Tigers of LSU and of Clemson) to beat the Sunshine State teams. But the majority of the group still seems high on Miami, despite a sloppy performance at home last weekend.

The college football prognosticators are unanimously picking seventh-ranked Auburn to beat No. The group is all in on the Wolverines, although Ian said he'd favor the Hawkeyes if they were playing at home. Ian and Liane are picking one-win UMass, led by former Florida State offensive coordinator Walt Bell, to beat the Panthers at Riccardo Silva Stadium. But Will and Clay are believers in Butch Davis' Panthers, at least for this weekend. The Huskies are just 1-3 this season and have lost each of their last three games.

Mike Ehrmann / Getty ImagesMIAMI - Miami-Dade police are investigating a social media threat made against fans at the upcoming Miami-FIU football game at Marlins Park. According to Andy Slater, the threats were posted to the Facebook page of the Miami Marlins. "Death threats coming to all people that live in Miami" was one of the reported posts, while the other was "someone might bomb the city." The Hurricanes and Panthers are scheduled to face off at the stadium on Nov. 23. A representative with Miami-Dade County's Division of Homeland Security confirmed the department is looking into the threat and is "working closely with other agencies to ensure the safety of all."

- Justin Henderson rushed for 141 yards and three touchdowns, Bailey Hale tied a program record with five field goals and Louisiana Tech beat Florida International 43-31 on Friday night. Hale kicked field goals of 41, 25 and 29 yards in the fourth quarter to give Tech a 36-24 lead with 2:17 remaining. FIU snapped Tech's 16-0 scoring run with an 8-play, 72-yard scoring drive to get within 36-31 with 51 seconds left. J'Mar Smith was 27-of-41 passing for 290 yards for Louisiana Tech (3-1, 1-0 Conference USA), which entered ranked 26th in the nation for passing offense at 294.7 yards per game. Hale also made five field goals last season against North Texas.

Things are about to get real. That means that Will and Clay are tied at 25-5 overall headed into the fourth full month of the college football season. Perhaps if Texas A&M knocks off Auburn, as Clay has prophesized. Or maybe Michigan will stun Wisconsin at Camp Randall Stadium, as Liane has projected. Liane also picked the Florida State tailspin to continue, losing to Louisville at home.

Local 10 sports reporter Clay Ferraro has a -game lead on sports director Will Manso headed into the third full weekend of the college football season. Everyone missed on Miami's 28-25 loss at North Carolina, dropping the Hurricanes to 0-2 for the first time since 1978. In addition to picking FIU and Miami to win, she also put her faith in USF, which lost a close contest with Georgia Tech. After two straight weekends of unanimous stock in Florida State, the Seminoles have lost favor with this group headed into their Atlantic Coast Conference opener at No. Saturday's games are seemingly much clearer cut, as the only difference of opinion is Stanford at UCF and FAU's trip to Ball State.

Local 10 sports reporter Clay Ferraro has an early lead on the rest of the group leading into the first full weekend of college football. Clay was the only person to pick Florida to beat Miami last Saturday in Orlando, although it nearly didn't happen. 8 Gators edged the Hurricanes 24-20 thanks to 10 sacks on redshirt freshman quarterback Jarren Williams. The threat of Hurricane Dorian forced the game between Florida State and Boise State, originally scheduled for 7 p.m. Saturday in Jacksonville, to move to Tallahassee. Otherwise, all the picks are the same.

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. - With Hurricane Dorian on a potential path toward Florida, this Saturday's season opener between Florida State and Boise State is very much in doubt. 2004Florida State at MiamiRobert Laberge/Getty Images Miami Hurricanes running back Frank Gore runs with the football as Florida State Seminoles linebacker A.J. Gore scored the winning touchdown in overtime as Miami won 16-10 at the Orange Bowl, Sept. 10, 2004. To accommodate the makeup game, Florida had to drop its previously scheduled non-conference game against Presbyterian, leaving the Gators with just five home games. As a result, Florida State had a 21-day layoff (the longest in school history) between games.
