Game 11 Microscope: Miami Hurricanes

[stech81]

Not going to be a good game, no pressure on the QB and CB 5 yards from their WR's

 

[Buzzforlife]

With our more limited offense(now without a roll out, speedy QB who can run for his life back there), we couldn't afford to get behind.

Look what happened.

 

[stech81]

I'm finished 3-9 here we come. Next week is going to be bad very bad. We suck pass sucking.

Is Kamalu related to Damian Swann?
Why don't they blow the bleeping whistle?
Like sumo wrestling out there.

 

[Buzzforlife]

My 28-17 prediction for Dah U, Duh U, was too optimistic. This is going to be a blowout.

I was going to wait until after the game to take a shower...then at 14-7, was thinking of moving it to halftime...now I'm going in. Pass the Advil too!

 

[Texwood]

We are going to manage to get blown out while rushing for 300 yards on the day. A masterpiece of a game.

Think this is bad wait till next week.

 

[Buzzforlife]

Not only are we wet behind the ears.....

 

[Buzzforlife]

Setting new standards this year. Have not abandoned the team before the end of a game. Watching this is a challenge though.

Here's to making it until the clock strikes zero and this Bud Light is for you, stech81!

 

[Texwood]

Tack on another 30 minutes to the the long, painful wait until 0:00

 

[Texwood]

Can we just sneak out the back door of Sunlife and load up the bus now?

We would miss the bus.

Good stuff from today:

Lynn Griffin looked explosive at A-back.
We fumbled 9 times and only lost 2 of them.

I thought we looked good coming and going off the field.

Astute observation! We also won time of possession rather decisively - that's an important stat you know.

 

[Texwood]

In all seriousness, Lynn Griffin was eye catching today. All four of his carries were impressive. I most like the one where he froze two Miami defenders on the edge and beat them to the boundary for a gain of 20 yards or so. I think he needs to stay on that side of the ball. We are going to have a log jam at A-back come spring camp.

1 or 2 could be moved to WR

You are correct. I don't think we would make it around the "block"!

When Ga. Southern was leading in the fourth quarter, I was thinking that things could be worse next week...we could be playing them.

 

[Buzzforlife]

Apparently we have some fight left in us, or apparently PJ Davis does:

Watch near the end, how Chaplin Moore is walking in a circle trying to keep him from going back for more Thug U!

 

[Buzzforlife]

Probably not a real good call on the reverse pass in the slop(yeah coach, totally agree!):

Must agree that we can't put a whole game together for four quarters with our offense and defense.

I have no problem with the play call, what I have a problem with was the player passing the ball had gloves on in the rain not a good move.

So Al Golden is gone, I did not expect that so soon.

Must have been a bad locker room situation. Those Miami boosters will drive away every coach they hire. I bet they regret getting rid of Coker.

Golden was a good man. I understand that the players really liked him, the coaches too. I wonder how many of his coaches will stay?

Golden is gone because he didn't produce. No "locker room situation".

Why was he fired....

* 32-25 record
* 17-18 in the ACC
* 19-23 against FBS Power 5 conference teams
* 0-14 against teams that finished ranked in the top 25 AP Poll
* 0-3 in his career in bowl games
* 0-5 against main rival FSU
* 7 NFL draft picks from Miami in the 2015 NFL Draft (tied for 3rd most in the country) and yet his team went 6-7 finishing the year with 4 losses in a row.
* Worst loss in UM history against Clemson 58-0

Isn't that enough??? Thank God he's outta here.
