18 games into Mario’s Regime

Parrish fumbled the ball going into the end zone for crying out loud. Lee blew the snap to TVD. Then TVD threw the interception. What the **** is Kam doing back there? This team's problems run much deeper than just TVD

But he’s still a problem. Two losses and 5 INTs

It’s not a loss, it’s a play. I don’t think there’s an example in history of a team doing what he did against GT. It’s all part of a continuous cycle of poor decision-making and a lack of feel. He’s so wound up that it affects everyone around him.

I’d love your take on Saban.

Who lost his mind today when his team took a knee too fast.

Swap QBs and we win.

This is college ball. A star QB can make up for a lot.

Maye was under pressure all game. They were getting called for penalties all game, but they have a star at QB, so they overcame it.

We don't, so we didn't

I’m utterly confused at your point, and yet fascinated at the same time.

Are you defending the playcall against GT? I don’t think you are, but just wanted to make sure.
 
Seems like the same usual suspects are killing us every **** week

JW20 being out of position and/or dumb taunting penalties

TVD… locking in on a single predetermined WR(usually X); multiple turnovers he can’t ever seem to throw just one it ALWAYS has to be in bunches

Fumbles… last week.. this week… ball security it’s the most important thing with the next being making the play.

Coaches… Mario/ Dawson for that idiotic non-knee decision… Guidry rampaging on the field… Jesus show some composure like y’all have coached more than a few months

I’ll throw in JAGs as well
LT56 JAG
Flagg JAG
Couch JAG
Kam I love the kid but man he’s reaching JAG levels
New addition! KELLY… JAG I really thought the kid was going to take that next leap and be the twitchy edge we desperately need

They also didn't have a RB fumble at the 1/2-yard line, or the center snap the ball way off to the side for another fumble. And our OC refuses to throw the ball to the TE

The most embrassing loss in the history of CFB was App state being d2 upsetting Mich.

I’m pretty sure A&M was ranked.

The numbers are humbling but I see improvement in some key areas.

It’d be nice to have an instant turnaround coach but we just aren’t there.

Miami had it won and said NO.

Wanted to start off by saying I’m keeping recruiting out of this rant, and will have a separate thread later (longer, more emotional rant).

Let’s get some really sobering numbers out of the way. Through 18 games, Mario is:
  • 9-9 overall
  • 3-7 in the vaunted ACC
  • 0-5 at home against ACC opponents
  • 0-4 against ranked opponents
  • Oversaw of the single-most embarrassing play in not only Miami’s history, but arguably all of college football

Certainly not 80 million dollars worth of results right there, but I’ll save that for the good part in the recruiting thread.

What I saw tonight was the same product I’ve seen for twenty years. In the first half, I felt like we should have been up 10…and then we got our *** absolutely blasted in the second half. UNC had 14 penalties for 147 yards, and we still lost by two scores. The refs will never call a better game for us.

If Mario Cristobal finds a way to win seven or fewer games this year, his seat would be warm at any school that game a **** about athletics. Especially now that Year 2 counterparts Venebles and Napier are experiencing varying levels of momentum in Year 2 (yeah guess what, Napier is 5-2 and has two more conference wins in 2023 than Mario has). Lose to UF to begin 2024, and I’d venture to say his seat would be hot.

But - it won’t happen. We’re stuck with Saint Cristobal for 5 years minimum. I’m not sure where to go after this performance, as I can easily see the team folding and losing five or six to close out another underachieving year. The hype was just that - again. And most of us fell for it.

Fair enough. Results are what they are.

Was tamu not ranked? I honestly can't remember

We need a QB. Mario seemed more intense tonight and I give him credit for coming out as he did after this past week. Mario didn’t lose us the game. I think TVD is hurt and plays like he is. Turn overs and the D getting burned didn’t help. This team needs a lot of help and game breaker players. NC was clearly the better team. Despite all those penalties they have the players to overcome their mistakes. Miami doesn’t.
