Miami Gameday...

I didn’t comment on this game all week but I didn’t expect this game to go much different than it is. Our D has given up huge plays all year with no defender even in the picture a lot of times. We get no pass rush, we don’t tackle well, we don’t get TO’s. A #6 ranked team is going to walk all over any D that plays like we do. At the same time, it sucks knowing we aren’t even competitive.
 
That call back of the TD may not be the difference in the outcome but it was the difference in this game

Yes, I make this argument all the time...Football games are narratives, not black/white pictorials.

The ACC new EXACTLY what it was doing with BS calls on the first two drives of the game (O and D for us)

Let's hope our O shows up, just no slow-developing plays

Yup.

There was little expectation of an upset from me

Same
 
Other non upper level programs didn’t get blown out by Miami at home. In fact, some almost won!

Not sure why we can’t expect to be at least competetive, at home.
Georgia Tech did win!
 
LQAjr!

But man I want McCord to get that passing TD record.
 
Defensively we need to blitz Ward off the edges, I'd use a DB blitz, move him to one side or the other - more often to his left, and try to cut the field in half and make him get rid of the ball in a hurry. Play tight coverage and hope our DBs can cover for a couple seconds until the pressure gets there.

We'll give up some long TDs, but we might get a turnover or get them behind the sticks sometimes too.
