    I am excited to the offense when we really open things up. I think our next big test will come v.s. Ole Miss. They are looking really good.

    Mon Williams always looked liked the most complete back.

    Jeff Demps will be special.

    People complaining about the FG should kiss their lucky stars that Spurrier did not play the Canes on a regular Schedule

    Highlights for the UM game.

    IMO the refs made the right call

    Agreed, his elbow was clearly in bounds and he had possession when he hit the ground.

    Still not behind that call. Every time I've seen that play it's been called incomplete because the WR didn't retain possession after hitting the ground, and had never established possession before hand.

    It looked like he had possession of the ball at the end and the ground caused the fumble.

    Totally agree with finswin. You have to hold on to the ball.

    The problem is we are all way too used to the PRO rules. In college, you do not need to keep possession after hitting the ground. That is only the NFL. In college it is possession, one body part (any body part) in bounds and that is it. DONE. So in college it is the RIGHT call.:hi5:

    Thats what I was thinking. I knew one or the other had the rule that the ground could not cause a fumble.

    :knucks: Awesome! Now I don't feel dirty.

    I saw very little of the game because I was at a wedding. But, I did manage to escape a few times :D That play was part of what I saw, but I couldn't hear it being discussed and only had my memory (which is predominantly NFL based) to call on.

    If you have total control of the ball and land in bounds its is a catch...my issue is thats too close of a call to overturn either way.

    Not bashing you but rather the rule. I think that's completely stupid.

    That is true too. It was VERY close. Of course I think he had it! :wink2: But I know others do not...

    I believe that's only an NFL rule. The college rule is just that you have to establish possession. After the review the ref specifically said that he had established possession.

    edit: I should have read through the whole thread and seen that this was already established.

    I work with some UM fans... I will say I have never heard so much trash talking from fans of a team that LOST by three touchdowns in all my life.

    I have to double check that last stat. IF true... oh boy will we have some fun at work.

    I'm fairly certain about the no seniors on defense thing.
    I am surprised though. I really did think Miami was the more inexperienced team. I think the disparity is where Miami's GOOD talent is the young talent.

    A few more games like this and I might allow myself to get my hopes up for our defense.

    No kidding

    Kinda crazy to think that Ole Miss will probably be a bigger test for them than Tennessee next week.

    I hate this UT game. Such a trap. They still have a bunch of talent, field advantage and a chip on their shoulder. Not to mention a rivalry game. Meanwhile, I "expect" us to kick their tail... :confused2:

    I believe that statistic is correct. What that statistic doesn't say is how many total freshmen played in the game for us though. It was between 18 and 21 I believe. Either way, I don't understand why any :theu: fan should be trash talking when we lost. They need to talk about the young talent we have and that they played well in a hostile enviroment or just be quiet lol.

    Me neither, but it has been happening! :no: You guys are definitely on the rise and in the ACC have a real good shot at a BCS bowl. I just would like the fans at work just to say "good game" and move on.

    You should be excited man, conference rivalry games are what makes football season great. Meyer's undefeated against UT since he's been there. Should be a great day of 'down south' football.:up:
