Florida A&M loses 77-7 to Miami in guarantee game

Florida A&M fell to Miami 77-7 in a college football contest held Thursday at Hard Rock Stadium. The one-sided matchup featured the Hurricanes setting a school record for total yards and tying their mark for points scored in a single game. Due to the lopsided nature of the competition, both teams agreed to reduce the fourth quarter to 10 minutes. Florida A&M, which previously played South Carolina State at the same venue on Sunday, received $760,000 for the appearance. The payout included $40,000 for the travel costs of the school's Marching 100 band. The result has prompted criticism from coaches and alumni regarding the long-term impact of such guarantee games on player safety and the reputation of the athletic program.
