## Resource

Episode 463 of the Orange Bowl Boys is here and it does not disappoint.

Lane Kiffin shows up to collect his flowers — and not the good kind. His comments about Ole Miss beating Miami? Addressed appropriately. FanDuel opened Miami as a 6.5-point dog at Notre Dame for the November matchup, and the guys love every bit of it. Also on the docket: Canes baseball heading into the NCAA Regional in Gaines…
