Can't do it. Won't ever, likely. We'd been watching the key members of that team since they were freshman. We were emotionally and financially invested or at least most of us. To see them lose their last game the way they did...I can't. We legit lost every game like that but, to make it further than we expected and to go out THAT way hurt. We had that game in hand. I will say, I was more than proud to own a Bain jersey after though.
 
Really? I feel pretty good. Obviously moral victories suck. But we were 1 clean punt block from winning a natty. Now, watching UL with 4 turnovers and SMU with some TERRIBLE penalties, I can’t watch that ****.
 
Y'all tripping. I hope Mario has that game on replay in the facilities. Let it add fuel to a burning fire. We need to remember that pain and let it be a driving force. Make sure that outcome doesn't happen again.

Built different.

I lost 2 state championships in HS baseball, 2 conference championships in college (both had to be beat twice by a top 5 ranked team in the country and lost twice both times), lost a regional championship to go to the D2 CWS, and I was injured and wasn't playing but was there and the team lost in the game to go to the juco world series. 6 years in college and ended my season watching 4 dog piles by other teams.

I have a high tolerance for sports related heart break.

Not to mention, I was born in TN, moved to South Florida, and then moved back to TN in my early teen years and we would fly down and watch a Canes game or 2 every year and we went to 7 in the first 5 years after I moved back....we didn't win a single one of them (2007 lost to NCST in OT, 2008 losses to UNC and FSU, 2009 loss to Clemson in OT, 2010 waxed by FSU and then the loss to USF in OT, and 2011 loss to KState). Didn't go to any in 2012 because I was on the road visiting schools my senior year and doing gameday visits.

I did see a few W's on the road in that time period but I went 2 years shy of a decade without seeing a home W. 2005 win over Virgina and then the next one I saw was 2013 over Florida.

I have so many voice mails from my mother who’s passed that I saved and haven’t to listened in eight years. I’m not good at revisiting trauma lol.

Exactly 20 days ago, it was 8 years since my mother passed. I have some short videos on my phone of her, I have watched once each. It is to emotional for me to watch them.
I haven't rewatched the game yet. either.
 
I’ve actually been able to stomach a few highlight clips here and there because of how far this program has come. Different vibe from last year. Since that Syracuse disaster I haven’t watched one clip of anything from 24.

Don’t even get me started on the fiasco bowl.

Really? Just any loss, you burn it? I watched both those games pretty extensively the week after. This one though, I can't do it. At least not yet.

I will watch those games after we win the national championship and see them as part of the growing pains to being #1 in football again. But not until then.
 
I’m not gonna watch the game but not because of trauma or being sad or depressed

The 2025 Miami Hurricanes should always be viewed in a massively positive light

I wont remember them for that throw by Beck I’ll remember the squad for the seemingly endless positive memories

My favorite season as a fan, hands down
 
I almost made a post about this yesterday. More about how everyone’s feeling.

Pretty much just trying to get over it, strategy is mostly repression. Just can’t think about it, and when I do, it sucks.

Generally I’m moving past it, but things keep coming up. For example, watching NFL playoff games the other day, I see teams driving the ball from around midfield and think about how we were so close to winning a freaking national championship.

Or a couple days ago, my eight-year-old daughter brings home artwork she made at school with a U logo in the upper right corner with a heart around it (nothing to do with the assignment, she’s just a soldier and represents every chance she gets).

And just last night, on social media, I see a cool Miami graphic with the city in the background at night and the U. On the bottom are the years of our five national championships. **** we were so **** close to having ‘26 on that list. And realizing how long it’s been since the last one looking at those numbers, wondering how long it may still be until the next.

**** burns, man.
 
My google tv finally removed the highlights from the recommended section on the homepage. It hurt every time I turned on my tv. With Mensah signing I’m starting to look forward to next year

Funny, I did treat myself to watching the extended highlights of ND, UF, FSU, NC St. Pitt, T A&M, *st and Ole Miss. Very satisfying.
 
I rewatch game..I sure do, I remember back rewatching the painful memories from 2005- 2023.

Those I dont re-watch unless its a CANES WIN.

24 with cam and 25 with beck those are the building blocks imo.

Those hard lick punches in the mouth to see if you can stand tall or just be looking up at the stars. Don't look like mario laying down.

Keep fighting mario.
