The Canes partied like it's 2002 by blowing out the Gators 41-17. Now, a lot will be said about this game, and specifically Cam Ward and his effort. But I want to focus in one one segment of the game and how it may signal that this is a new Miami Hurricanes and new Mario Cristobal

It's 17-10 after a defensive bust that was taken to the house by Montrell Johnson. The crowd in Gainesville was back in and loud. Yeah, we all had this uneasy feeling, right.

But unlike other years, Miami just played their game and let Ward pilot 'Air Cristobal' to end the half at 24-10. Then they came out for the second half, and just matriculated the ball down the field to make it 31-10. It was just a systematic beating the the Hurricanes put forth

Then as Florida was put in the must-throw game, Lance Guidry and his band of savages put the head on Wertz.

Then to begin the fourth, Shannon Dawson actually dialed up a reverse pass from X-Resterpro to Sam Brown that should've been a touchdown.

Yeah, they kept the foot on the gas pedal

The score doesn't reflect Miami's dominance of this game

This just might be a new Miami -- and a new Mario Cristobal

never needed a new Mario though. Just needed him to acquire the talent like he does. people let Diaz and Shannon ect ect Ball be confused with Mario. Mario plays to strengths . Our biggest strength is lines and QB. Also X is the most trusted WR in cfb. No one and I mean no one deserves more trust then him. He will always make the catch .
 
Culture has shifted completely in year 3. It was there if you looked close year 2, but was just completely overshadowed by the QB catastrophe. Now it's everywhere, starting with the perfect QB grab from the off season.

This is it boys. We're putting numbers this year. Mario is pulling a top 3 class, and whoever he wants out of the portal after the showing this year. Rest of the 20s is our new decade of dominance.

You look at the sequence of plays and how one side picks the other up.

Cam throws what was a truly bad interception on the miami side of the field. The defense comes in and stone walls them and forces a fg.

A few drives later the defense gives up a long td run to close the gap to a one score game. Then the offense responds in a big way marching down the field and scoring a td. Add to that another score coming out of half.

That is how you not only pick each other up but it leads to dominating and demoralizing the other team.
