It was a brutal way to go out. But it ain’t 2003. The game wasn’t ripped from us. We lost. Didn’t play our best. Refs didn’t blow the game. Mario couldn’t be more different than Coker and paying players is legal

Yeah. As fans we like to highlight the mistakes, plays we didn't make, etc. But truth is IU made the plays when they needed them. Multiple 4th down conversions, and the back shoulder throws they connected. It is what it is. If we are healthy all next year, find me a better team/offense. We will be back.

Yeah it sucks Miami could have won. But the season was a HUGE success. Canes wins: ND, USF, uf, FSU, VT, Cuse, NC state, Pitt, A&M, taint, Ole Miss. 13-3 with 3 losses by total of 16 points. Title game loss by 6. Best season since my 23 year old son has been alive and listening to me tell him every year "man Miami is looking good this year". So glad I got to see it all. How bout them Canes!

Im content. It was a great season.

I'll take 2025 over every season Miami has had since 2001.

Exactly how I feel….except every once in a while the thought creeps into my mind of “****, what could’ve been….one more play, walking out national champs in our home, after 24 years, etc.”

I’ve thought about the game everyday since… please let me know I’m not alone

10 days later and I still hope Bauman gets run over by a train.

And I still can't get over the fact that our offense mulliganed an entire half and we still had to shoot ourselves in the foot 4 other ways to not win a title.

Rip a bong hit, shoot some tren, do some reps, rub one out, take a nap.

In what order?

It sucks. Miami needed to only make one more play and they win the game. The 3 big plays. The blocked punt, the 4th and 5 run, and the INT.

Throw in a couple of back-shoulders.

You have to pay to get that info...

The difference between the first half and the second half on defense was incredible. Once Xavier Lucas was in the defense changed and IU wasn't able to run /pass like they were in the first half. Tough thinking about "what might have happened if..."
Targeting on Lucas in the game prior not called or erroneously upheld
Missed field goal
No blockie by the TE (who shall not be named) on the blocked punt/TD
Get a stop on one of the 4th downs.
Tackle Mendoza
Beck throws underneath to an open receiver instead of the deep ball.

Like many have said, the opportunity was there.

I am excited for the new season.

Are we 100 days from a 100 days yet?? (Asking for a friend)

Same here. But that does not make me any less content with the 2025 season.


Might be more fun to win it all in Vegas next January... All I'm sayin'

I woke up the next day thinking I was going to be sad. But then I realized what we had been through the last 23 years then I was good. For the first time I actually realized that what Miami does on the field doesn’t affect me personally in any way shape or form. Idk if it’s growth or what, but I was still happy with what the guys did this year. No one gave us a shot to even make the playoffs and we made it to the natty
