Rodney Harris II scored the crazy go-ahead touchdown to beat Miami. This rivalry means more to him for one big, and personal, reason. He said Miami head coach Chuck Martin told him in high school he “wasn’t good enough to play at Miami.”

There's a chance you could see aurora tonight. There is geomagnetic storm in the forecast from the Space Weather Prediction Center. The best chance to try to see the aurora is between 8pm & 5am Friday. You'll need to get away from city lights. Cloud cover may hinder viewing.
