The battle of Miami will commence on Friday night as the Miami University RedHawks take on the University of Miami Hurricanes but the trash talk has already started. RedHawks quarterback Brett Gabbert was asked over the weekend where the “real Miami” was and he pointed to Oxford, Ohio – where Miami University is located. The RedHawks’ football history dates back to the late 1880s and has produced some of the most well-known coaches in the sport – college or professional. Pittsburgh Steelers great Ben Roethlisberger also came out of Miami University. The Hurricanes and RedHawks have played in one game over their program’s history in the modern era – coming in 1987.
