Conference Championship Saturday

[TwentySix]

Has Manny Diaz done that at all this season to any team?

 

[HarborCane]

I hate that everyone is acting like there will be congressional hearings and riots in the street if ND is left out. It’s not a big deal. It’s the right thing and everyone will move on and get excited for the playoffs. If ND doesn’t like it join a conference and play a real schedule.

duke and uva would roll byu

relax

 

[Pearson704]

You guys realize ESPN is letting all of its paid talent to endorse Miami unless…we’re ******* in. Case closed.

It's good TV for them either way.

 

[Groz73Cane]

****, ND fans need to start complaining about TT running it up

Yeah, heard some douche ND fan saying how we ran it up on Pitt. JFC, but they didn’t run up the score on Cuse, right? F**king delusional.

 

[canester95]

I’ve been a Miami fan for 30 plus years. I’ve never seen this much media support. Someone definitely wants us in. I think ESPN wants us in. I think the Committee wants ND in.

Yeah, all this Miami positivity from the media feels strange.

 

[Eyedoctor2]

So we now need an Alabama 10 point or greater loss or an Alabama win.

If they lose by over 10 they will be a 3 loss team to our 2, will have lost to our common opponent (FSU), and solve the ND vs Miami issue by dropping below both.

 

[Alex_Dynamix]

You realize byu beat 7-8 teams w winning records
They are ugly
They are slow
They run the ball and control clock
They don’t turn it over…except TT twice!!!

BYU is a good team
This is a bad matchup for them

Nowhere did I say they weren’t a good team

 

[Pentagon Cane]

Yeah barely with their starting QB out. You thought you had something, go back to box score watching

Yes, I watched the game. Tech couldn't run the ball.

 

[Hold My Beer]

Joe Tessi and Jesse Palmer in our corner.

Starting to feel some momentum in the Canes' corner ...

 

[flips]

ND is still -500 on FD. Bama -3000 so gamblers not think there is a chance there.

 

[CTCanes]

Glad he said that, everyone is acting like ND got way better and Miami ahs been just barely beatong teams when Miami is way better than game 1 as well. Miami also beat ND worse than the score, Mario just let up.

Not to mention Cowherd has been beating the drum of ND played like the 121, 123, 125, 127 rated defenses. Their schedule sucks. Must be nice to plug in Navy and Army every year.

People are over estimating the fallout of whichever way it goes. It’ll be the greatest injustice of all time for some no matter how it plays out for about a week, and then everyone to move on.

 

[YLCANE]

We would own the Big 12.

Omg let’s start with little ole acc just ONCE

 

[hill33]

ROLL MF TIDE

 

[TwentySix]

So we now need an Alabama 10 point or greater loss or an Alabama win.

If they lose by over 10 they will be a 3 loss team to our 2, will have lost to our common opponent (FSU), and solve the ND vs Miami issue.

We would need Simpson to get hurt early and then Georgia to win 35-0 with Russell looking terrible for Bama to get left out.

 

[Pearson704]

Its so wide open, Miami just needs to be invited.

If our logos were switched with ND we'd be on the inside looking out.

 

[dycane]

It's good TV for them either way.

No. They are totally invested in propping up the ostensible integrity of the committee. This is narrative setting.

 

[CityboyCanes4life82]

At all. Bama loses, the it will be the excuse they need to not use H2H as Bama will go to 10 and ND 9.

They will ***** us regardless

Exactly they’re trying to play with our intelligence. Bottom line, there is one spot yet.

 

[Cane4life18]

What could Sitake have done differently today?

His freshman QB (who was a fill-in this year when their No. 1 QB got kicked out of school in the summer) was limited as a passer — and then he's hobbled by a bad ankle today. What was the answer at that point?

Pretty much every defense gonna wear out in a similar situation to what BYU faced

Even with the QB who went to Tulane the offense would've been the same. His playstyle is similar to their current QB. The outcome would've been the same.
