A simple goodwill mission to a storybook resort for sick children featured a brief though tense standoff between Miami and West Virginia players Monday. A day later, organizers at a kickoff luncheon at a nearby resort had to coordinate the way the two teams entered the ballroom so they wouldn’t cross paths. They play today, and both coaches believe the histrionics will continue.

“Anytime you get two football teams together, there are going to be some things,” WVU coach Dana Holgorsen said Tuesday at a news conference at Rosen Shingle Creek resort. “So it’s going to get chippy. That’s just the way it is. Pregame is going to get chippy. I am going to guarantee you that. I think both teams understand that and are going to behave themselves and not do anything illegal. But trash talk, that pretty much happens every single game, so it is not surprising to me.”
