    YES! Held them to a FG. Lmao at Gano's profile picture. It was a question mark, like "who?"

    Haha or a question mark like: 'This player has chosen to conceal his identity, who are you to care anyway?'


    Twelve point game, we're getting the ball back. Not impossible. Still a full quarter to play.

    Lol. Here comes the dreaded fourth quarter for us though. Remember, we've been outscored by 20 in the fourth this season. Sean Spence said it best, when he said "We have to finish." Sounds simple right? Sure but seems impossible to do.

    Oh man. How do you drop that? Stop looking to run before you catch it.

    I wonder when this staff will realize that Shields is not the guy they thought he would be. The guy has magically lost all his talent coming out of HS. Why do you continue to take away time from Aldarius Johnson? If you choose to take time away, out of all people you put in Shields?

    Aldarius Johnson with the catch. This is the guy that needs to see the ball, not Shields.

    EDIT: If you go downfield, throw to Benjamin. :D

    Shields is probably a practice superstar and just can't translate it to the field. I remember when he first got here he practiced amazing but never played right.

    Well from what I now, he's had a tough time hauling in passes and has had maturity issues. He can't seem to keep his head on right. I remember his freshmen year, he looked good out there. His UM career has gone down the drain since.

    Know what I think our biggest problem on defense is? We give away the blitz. Three or four seconds before the snap the QB KNOWS who is coming, any somewhat smart QB is going to pick that apart. Especially if your blitz isn't getting the desired pressure.

    I agree, I think that's one of the problems. Others include lack of physicality from our DB's and our interior defensive line seems to cave in way to often which is why rushers have success running outside.

    Damn, Carter again. Marve looked like he got a little scared from the blitz and underthrew it.

    Play defense and special teams, offense be damned lol.

    Interesting scenario now though. If you drive to field goal range do you kick it? The defense has been shakey all day long and you don't have much to work with timeout wise.

    Nah, I don't think you kick the FG. If I'm Shannon, I go for the TD.

    The problem is that the gameclock has lots of time left, and if you kick a FG another one wins it. Then again who knows if you get another shot. So if it's like 4th and 13 you have to think.

    Well dammit, we lost but I'm still proud of our team for hanging in there. We've got a ways to go, but we are improving. Damn, this game hurts to lose after fighting back like that. I thought it was going to be the comeback of the weekend. What a heartbreaker. Still, no matter what, I'm damn proud to be a Miami Hurricane.:up:

    my God...the humanity...

    I understand if you play a good game, execute and still lose a close game. Miami wasn't even competitive. It was Men (vs) boys. Brandon Harris got embarrassed by Greg Carr. I don't understand why Antone Smith was able to run for 20 yrs untouched....

    No timeouts at the end...WR's just dropping the ball all over the place...My God when does this stop? When do they begin to look better than last season? The performance they put up today just won't cut it.

    In your opinion, he's not. I don't see it the same way. He had a gaping hole on the 20 yard run. He has good lower body strength and it showed when he ran through two or three tackles.
