Beyond proud of these things

I’m going with the mental toughness of the whole team throughout the game. There were multiple times we could’ve folded, it was a frustrating game offensively and Davis was having a nightmare. But they kept their focus and just refused to lose. Again, old school vibes. Proud of this bunch for the way they gutted out the win.

How did he hold on to the ball with Pruitt’s hit? Unbelievable hit and timing. A&M board was crying for targeting. But it was a perfect hit.
And Concepcion never played the same after that blast from Pruitt. Loved it, especially because all the Aggies around us were screaming for a penalty lol.
 
It’s that “I’m gonna hit you as hard as I can right in your fuccin mouth over and over again” mentality. Then my little brother or big brother is gonna do it. Cam Pruitt on special teams laying out Concepcion. Mark Fletcher pulling a Derrick Henry for 25 yards on the A&M DB. Fletcher hyping up Mali on the sideline after the fumble, then Mali scoring the game winner. Bryce stepping up in clutch time. So many plays.
 
I will add in the 4th quarter Mario asking Heatherman do you want to accept or decline the 3rd down personal foul. That to me was huge, Heatherman said decline and Miami stopped them on 4th down.
All are getting better and trusting each other to do their jobs.
AND without looking at the boxscore, I can only recall 2 penalties; 1 Def offsides and 1 Unnecessary Roughness, that’s it. I absolutely love yesterday’s all around team discipline.
Go Canes!
There was also the delay of game in the second quarter. We had a TO to burn but oddly did not use it. That timeout actually came back to help us in our final drive presently he missed FG to end the half.

Question is …. Did we intentionally not burn a TO and accept the five yards cause we didn’t get to snap it in time? Or did we just not even realize it until it was too late?
 
Blay has made some very good tackles this season.

I distinctly remember him tackling Castellanos on a scramble…didn’t whiff. Didn’t over persue. Lined him up and wrapped up and brought him down.

Loved that play vs fsu
 
Not gonna lie I didn’t make a sound that entire run

No cheering or freaking out

Just was almost like the whole thing happened in slow motion knowing somehow some way this was the run that was going to win us this game

Just a brief moment praying for no flags
I thought this was somewhat reminiscent of X making that catch against Cal to go for 50 and march us down the field. Monstrous moment in the game. It breathed life into all of us.
 
Freight train Fletcher steam rolling one of ATMs DTs. He was sent to the sideline and never returned.

We had a ton of guys laying it on the line. I was reminiscent of old times. You could tell their players didn’t want it anymore.

Every single defensive coach and player

The only leftover from last years defensive staff Trumpycane believes is Jason Taylor

And people were posting last year during the season Taylor thought very low of Guidry

Guess he was right
 
The timing on the Pruitt hit was sublime.

I still don't know how guy held on. We get a game changing result there 99/100...

Yes, it was intentional. We are at the 50. No harm in an extra 5 yards. No way do you ever take a TO to save 5 yards on 4th done unless you are going for it.
