CORAL GABLES, Fla. -- Brad Kaaya tries not to think about the last two games against Florida State.Tries to no avail, that is.The Miami quarterback still has all the plays that got away from the Hurricanes in those matchups etched in his mind, ones that ultimately meant that his team couldnt close the deal after holding fourth-quarter leads against their archrival.The next chance for No. 10 Miami (4-0, 1-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) to end whats now a six-game losing streak in the series is Saturday night, when No. 23 Florida State (3-2, 0-2) visits.Not being able to finish games, Kaaya said in a quiet moment after practice Tuesday. It has been a killer for us.Finish has been a buzzword all season around the Hurricanes, and it was again Tuesday. Practice on another hot and sundrenched South Florida morning was winding down, sweat-drenched players were getting tired and it was showing in the effort they were giving toward the end of the workout. And someone wasnt happy.That someone wasnt a coach. It was Kaaya.He got on the group a little bit a couple times, just about their focus and execution, Miami coach Mark Richt said. It was hot, it was late in the practice ... and he let them know a couple of times.Thats not even close to the first time Kaaya has spoken up.If he thinks a team meal at a hotel before a game is a little too loud, he lets teammates know and they respond immediately. The Hurricanes rotate captains for each game, but whether hes out at midfield for the coin toss or not -- and Kaaya is one of the four Miami players picked for this game -- hes the undisputed leader of the locker room.They can see that even up in Tallahassee.Hes a lot calmer and more poised, Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher said. You can see the maturity as he keeps going. Hes just growing as a player, a very good player.Two years ago at home, Miami led 16-0 in the first half and 26-20 in the fourth quarter before falling 30-26 to eventual national champion Florida State -- the final margin in that game being the number of points the Hurricanes squandered with a short missed field goal and a blocked extra point.Last year in Tallahassee, Miami was down 17-3 early and seemed on the cusp of getting blown out before rallying to take a 24-23 lead in the fourth. But that lead didnt hold up either.In both games, Dalvin Cook -- a Miami native -- ran for the go-ahead touchdown for Florida State.Its Miami week. It dont get no bigger than this, Cook said. This is one of the games you came to Florida State (for), to play in this rivalry. Were going to take full advantage of it. when you step in that stadium, man, its something you cant even explain. Its different.That it is, and this time, Kaaya is hoping for a different ending.He can reel off the plays that got away with ease -- including four passes in big moments that were batted away, three at the line of scrimmage -- though he wishes he could forget them all.They all could have been game-changing plays, Kaaya said.His third taste of this series awaits, and the stakes are high as always in this rivalry.The Hurricanes have a chance to remain unbeaten in the ACC, end that long drought against the Seminoles, probably push their rival out of the AP Top 25 and hand Florida State its first consecutive losses since 2011.Theres going to be a lot of excitement and a lot of fans there, Miami running back Mark Walton said. Dont make this game bigger than its supposed to be. Its going to be a big game, but dont make it a huge stage for us. Were going to try and go out there and be focused.In other words, theyre going to try to do exactly what their quarterback is telling them.It just resonates with me and a lot of people who were here those last two years, Kaaya said. It kind of sticks with you. You try not to think about it, but every once in a while you catch yourself thinking about it. Its something thats been a point of emphasis this entire year.

Pence singled in the winning run with no outs in the ninth inning to give the Giants a 7-6 victory over the San Diego Padres on Sunday. BOSTON -- Call it the unholy alliance: one-time Super Bowl rivals Tom Brady and Michael Strahan are teaming up to produce a six-part documentary TV series called the Religion of Sports.Each hour-long episode looks at different examples of the cultural and spiritual impact of sports in religions around the world.The show explores the rivalry between soccer clubs in Glasgow, Scotland; the Calgary Stampede rodeo in Alberta, Canada; and the rise of e-sports. It also delves into NASCAR, mixed martial arts and minor league baseball.The Associated Press caught up with Brady, Strahan and Gotham Chopra -- the creator, director and voice -- of the series that airs beginning Nov. 15 on the Audience Network on DirecTV and AT&T U-verse.Brady is a quarterback for the New England Patriots. Strahan is a retired New York Giants defensive end, who is joining ABCs Good Morning America this fall. Chopra is the son of spiritual guru Deepak Chopra.Their comments have been edited for clarity and length:--AP: Where did the idea of this show come from?Chopra: Figuratively I feel like Ive been working on this my whole life. Obviously growing up with my father, I was around that world of spirituality and religion. But I also grew up in Boston. I bled green as a Celtics fan in the `80s. I loved sports. About five years ago, I had a conversation with my father, who never really understood that devotion to sports. And I remember saying to him that all of those things you speak in the spiritual tradition also exist in sports.--AP: What drew you to this project?Strahan: I love the emotional aspect of it. You hear Religion of Sports, and you say, OK, so sport is a religion? Well, yeah, it really is. The temple is this arena or stadium. These athletes can be considered the gods in certain ways and the fans can be considered parishioners. So to be able to explore that and this spiritual connection between sports and life, thats what really piqued my interest.--AP: You say sport creates a spiritual experience for both fans and playerrs.dddddddddddd. How would you describe that to non-sports fans?Brady: Its pretty simple: In sports you often become part of something greater than yourself. On the field, you come into sync with your teammates and coaches and together you achieve something that you could never do on your own. And as an athlete, when you are on that field and the fans get really engaged and you can feel their energy and passion and true love of the game, it is absolutely a spiritual experience.--AP: How is this series going to be different from other sports documentary shows out there?Chopra: I compare it a lot to This American Life. Its stories about why sports gives people purpose, meaning and significance -- whether youre an athlete, fan or person that works within sports. Its very much character-driven. The backdrop happens to be sports.--AP: What was the most interesting thing for you about this project?Strahan: Its finding out those backstories and motivations. Its the real heart-to heart-feel of everybodys story. Cat Zingano (a mixed martial arts fighter the series followed as she prepared for a comeback fight earlier this year) and her reason for doing what shes doing. Once you see that episode, youll have a much deeper appreciation for who she is and what shes come from.--AP: Did you learn anything new about sports culture in the making of this?Brady: As far as the series goes, its great to learn more about sports Im probably less familiar with -- stock car racing, rodeo, e-sports -- and realize that a lot of the people at the center of those sports bring the same level of passion, commitment and disciple that I try to with football. Sports is a way of life for billions of people around the planet. Religion of Sports takes you beyond sports as we know it.---Follow Philip Marcelo at twitter.com/philmarcelo.
