The Miami Hurricanes defense struggled in their win against Boston College in the first week of NCAA play. They allowed BC to pass freely all game, giving up over 400 yards in the air in that game, so losses on the already somewhat porous defense are bad news for the 'Canes. Unfortunately for Miami, they will be missing a member of their defensive line on Saturday, defensive tackle Luther Robinson.

Word is that Luther Robinson- #UM #Canes DT- will not travel to KSU bec of disciplinary issue, according to CaneSport

Robinson, a redshirt Junior, has played in 11 games for the Hurricanes since he joined the team. He missed all of 2011 with an injury, but played against Boston College, getting two assisted tackles on his record. No word was released on what the disciplinary issue was that will force Robinson out of the game.
