Canes vs. Texas 8 & 4

[DCane]

I don't think you remember Lashlee in big games. He'd always shrink down and get too conservative

Exactly. People forget how we looked against Clemson and Bama. Couldn't get a first down to save our lives

 

[miamiphd]

Gattis really blew it on that one drive after the big pass to Arroyo. We were killing them running the ball then he went pass pass pass.

Yeah. Same thing with some NFL head coaches. Thinking of Shannahan in particular. He blew 2 Super Bowls (ATL and SF) by giving up the run.

So far:

I see a run game that will do extremely well during conference play. A QB that needs to get a little more comfortable with this offense.

I see a defense that’s showing signs of life. I see a DT that is growing into something special.

Let’s see what the 2nd half looks like.

Agreed this game in a weird way gives me hope for the season. Miami should win the coastal if they don’t give up.

 

[We the Boss]

Gattis pass game concepts are meh and the receivers are cheeks.

Pound the rock, get stops and let’s roll.

 

[LawyerCane]

If we get a TD drive to open the half, we'll be in the driver's seat. Our defense looks very sound and the OL looks solid as well.

Agree. Our first possession to open the second half is critical

 

[NC_Canes_11]

I know it sounds crazy, but this offense fits Garcia more than TVD.

 

[K-TownCane21]

We have been moving the ball. Multiple drops, 2 fgs missed and a muffed punt that Stevenson had no business touching. And its 10-3. Mario is going in at half telling them this is our game. Run game looks good. D is playing great. Our line is getting pressure with 4. Who the **** is this Ivey guy? Lol we just need to be a lot cleaner this 2nd half and we got this.

 

[ThomasM]

Cant believe we let the clock run down all the way with 2 time outs…

Why risk another fumble, and giving them a free FG attempt? Same with a roughing the punter if we tried to block. It was the right call.

 

[aelmiami]

TVD is off and the WRs appear to be lazy

George showed no fight on that last ball from TVD. Should’ve caught it.

 

[AmherstCane]

Receivers are abysmal. I’m at the game. Cannot get any separation. And TVD missed George streaking down the field.

TVD has been worse than the receivers.

 

[cway313]

It ain’t perfect

But Steele and Gattis answering a lot of questions tonight so far

Only 1 position group has been cheeks and special teams been buns.

 

[Number1CanesFan]

I think we all should be pleased with the running game. If we can get a lead into the 4th quarter, a fresh Thad is going to wear their asses out.

 

[MiamiVice7]

Two promising things:

1) We look like we belong on both lines. For your Miami Hurricanes, that’s no small thing.

2) Lots of adversity in a very hostile environment, yet we haven’t pussed out. Impressed with our mental and physical grit.

I’ll take those two things ALL DAY.

I said earlier, TVD ain’t as good as it seemed.. has nothing to do with the offense. Last year, when in doubt, throw it to Rambo even if others are open. This year he has no Rambow. We don’t run easy plays to help him like lashlee did though. We did run one that I recall but the RB dropped it smh.

 

[Gables Canes]

The little things killing us AGAIN
Drops
Poor WR blocking
Special teams

 

[BS85]

Is something wrong with Van Dykes shoulder? I’m used to this dude ripping throws. Something’s not right

There's nobody to throw it to

 

[Mr. Dynasty1]

Where the F**K is Will Mallory?

Getting his shirt pushed. Did you see his effort on the pass he caught first drive?

 

[ThomasM]

I know it sounds crazy, but this offense fits Garcia more than TVD.

No offense fits any QB when the WRs can't get open.

 

[Pentagon Cane]

We get all the way down to the red zone running it, then we get pass happy. WRs are not getting open at all.

Need to run more combos.

 

[Rod Is Godly]

We are lucky to get out of that half with only a gap of 7 points.

If we can adjust, we can win . This team ain’t Bama.

We’re lucky? We gifted them 7 and didn’t take 3 twice. They’re lucky if anything. We must be watching different games.
