"College football is now on notice that Mark Richt has these current Miami Hurricanes back in the National spotlight!"

We scored 41 points against a really good defense. How is that garbage?

2017 Notre Dame is easily our best game since at least 2005 (Va Tech), and possibly even since 2001. Really, the only reason why you could possibly put the 2005 Va Tech game in the same stratosphere as 2017 ND is because 2005 Va Tech was on the road, and 2017 ND was at home. I don't even think there was a game in 2002 where Miami played as well as they did in 2017 vs Notre Dame. You can't discredit the 2017 Notre Dame game.

With that being said, I do agree with you that the 2017 season as a whole was and to some extent still is overrated. Ga Tech, UNC and FSU were all lucky wins- and 2 of those teams didn't make a bowl, while the third (FSU) had to schedule a patsy to make a bowl. The Syracuse, Toledo, and even Bethune-Cookman wins weren't very pleasing to watch either, even though none of those games went down to the wire. At the end of the day, the Notre Dame game was just one game in 2017, and you don't judge a season by one game.

Our scoring drives were:
8 plays 58 yards
2 plays 32 yards
9 plays 58 yards (FG)
4 plays -4 yards (FG)
INT TD
9 plays 90 yards (Good drive)
8 plays 30 yards

Defense gave us a short field on 3 drives and scored us a TD

Sorry if the word garbage offended you, it was mediocre

Hmm.

We outgained Notre Dame 374-261 in that game. We won the turnover battle 4-0.

The more I look at it, the more I realize the ND win may not have been as impressive as I thought.

While we clearly outplayed Notre Dame, I don't think it was reallly a 33 point win type demolition. I'd like to see a Bill Connely type analysis of the game- he'd probably say we should have won by more like 14 or 17 than 33.

Notre Dame was definitely a good team that year, and I still think it's a pretty impressive win.

Nd wasn’t overrated, they were a very good team that year and after the narrow lost to uga was billed as being unbeatable pretty much by all of talking heads in the media.

QB was junk. Not one player on their defense stood out and had to be accounted for. They had 1 WR that was worth a ****. 2 great OL don’t make a team.

Go Canes!

Early play that changed the game was first ND drive where Wimbush missed a streaking WR for a TD, missed him by a foot in the endzone, game over after that

Man, got to leave Rosier alone. Kid played over his head and with got a a taste of the good old days for 10 games. After so many underachievers for so many years, he was a treasure to be admired. For a couple weeks we where THE U again and college football was scared. It was mirage but man that night in the Rock and the doomers, it was as real as we have seen in almost 20 frigging years and remember some of those years had enough first round picks to field a NFL team. I'm old and that 10-0 might be the best year I'll see again. I'll take the same this year and surely would have taken it last year.

Disagree with this: you're describing the type of close games, and games we should have won for two years now. This was a beat down on the National Stage against (Overrated or not) the #3 Team in the country that ran with Richt's old team their whole game. It would be a stage 95% of other teams might have had a problem playing on. From the get-go, the Canes came like the years Howard or Jimmy Johnson were on the sidelines.

I realize the biggest reason was 4 turnovers and we ran the ball unusually well: Homer rushed for 145. But what I was asking is, how do you dominate against a team like that, then play so far the other way against far lessor teams? I played college ball, and don't understand how there could be that wide a spread between your best and then a lingering succession of your worst played games.

It’s because they didn’t really dominate that game. Any time you get 4 turnovers, you’re putting the opponent at an extreme disadvantage. (See: VT@ UM 2019). You have to do so much more to overcome those turnovers. The running game was definitely the other big factor. For whatever reason, Notre Dame refused to bring a safety into the box and Miami are them up. Honestly, I believe they fired their DC after the game. Everyone in the whole world knew that you had to load up against the run and make Rosier beat you but Notre Dame did the exact opposite.

My reply was a direct response to the post saying Notre Dame sucked because their quarterback couldn’t win the starting job at UCF. All I said was that not only would our starting quarterback have not won that job either, he probably wouldn’t even be on the team. It’s an honest and realistic take. Wimbush wasn’t great but he was better than Rosier.
 
The Rock when poppin is Incredible!!!

ABC and ESPN College Football analyst Kirk Herbstreit said after working the Virginia Tech and Notre Dame games last season that Hard Rock Stadium was the loudest venue he’s ever been in.

Yeah, let's keep kicking a dead horse about the guy who was told he'd never start at Miami by Richt, rather than the Bozos who couldn't beat him out, the QB coach with no experience, the OC's game calling.

Rozier he still is the only QB in 18 years that won 10 games and the only Miami Q ever to win the Coastal. Wish we had him last year when the other two got to show the Cane world why they never could beat him out.

At Notre Dame they would have made the movie 'Rudy' about Rozier - not ate him alive like misguided Cane's fans.

I'll leave you with this - the guy was the only QB Miami had who did what was asked of him, staying available and not getting multiple disciplinary actions making them unavailable.

Too bad they didn't show him getting the Canes fans up before he threw that dime.

First off you can't even spell his name correctly, thats how irrelevant he was

Second the only reason we won 10 games is because the defense played out of their minds that season, he was pathetic against UNC, VT, Clemson, Wisconsin, FSU, UNC, and Pitt, the last which cost us an undefeated regular season. I've never seen a QB miss easier throws than that Pitt game.

The 2018 season also didn't exist right?

When your biggest compliment to you QB is "He stayed available, and did not get disciplinary actions" that is not a good sign

The empty pairs of cleats playing behind him were the true failures - and we've had a few decent defenses - still the only Q with 10 wins in **** near 2 decades. But keep complaining about him, because we've been a regular "QB U", right?

My response was to the guy who said Notre Dame sucked because their starting quarterback couldn't win the job at UCF. Miami still managed to beat them with a starting quarterback who not only wouldn't have ever won the job at UCF but probably wouldn't have been offered a scholarship. Regardless of your personal feelings, the statement is correct.

Rosier was awful. Just because he was better than the QBs last year doesn't mean we should be complimenting him.

Rosier was about as good of a QB as Kyle Wright, and the QBs in 2019 were about as good as Kirby Freeman. I think everybody knows that Wright was better than Freeman, but everybody still correctly thinks Wright sucked donkey balls and nobody makes excuses for Wright. So why do some idiots on here make excuses for Rosier and deny that he was a terrible QB?
