3 things learned
Defensive pressure continues to be a concern
Colorado entered giving up a Football Bowl Subdivision-worst 16 sacks, but UCF managed just two on 64 offensive plays.
MIAMI — Yes, they have noticed that they have gone unnoticed.
So, yes, after a run of three Eastern Conference finals in four years, including two NBA Finals appearances, but then a first-round playoff flameout last season, chip appears very much back on shoulder for the Miami Heat.
Even before players talk the talk at Monday’s media day at Kaseya Center, and even before they again start to walk the walk at Tuesday’s start of training camp at the Baha Mar resort in the Bahamas, there already is an appreciation of the moment.
Basically, it has been hard not to notice going unnoticed at last month’s NBA schedule release.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Vice President Kamala Harris is set to rally in Las Vegas on Sunday night as both she and Republican Donald Trump continue to make frequent trips to Nevada, looking to gain momentum in the swing state as Election Day nears.
The rally is part of Harris’ latest West Coast swing, which included making her first trip to the U.
A statewide ad blitz by the group pushing for legalized marijuana warns Floridians of the dangers of black-market pot: It may be laced with fentanyl, they say, a potent drug driving an epidemic of fatal drug overdoses.
