The frustrating thing is if Miami just sticks to the formula we win, even with all the mistakes .

No gimmicks, run the ball, don’t ask Beck to make difficult throws.

Oh well now I am just making myself angry again.

Honestly, do we know this? We’ve been undisciplined all season long. Our talent has been able to get us out of some of the games where we goofed hard. Indiana is certainly not more talented than us, but I don’t know if I’ve ever seen such a disciplined team before. Their play execution on those two 4th and 5’s is what really did us in. I don’t care so much about the blocked punt. I argue that jump started our offense and changed the game plan to be more aggressive and it was working better than what we were previously doing. Some will say I’m stupid for saying this but hey, we’ll never agree on everything.

Let’s be real for a moment. We trailed Indiana the entire game. We were lucky to have a shot at the end because Indiana had the ball 3rd & 1 deep in our territory and a first down would have sealed it, but an uncharacteristic false start pushes them back, forces a FG, and gave us one more shot. Carson is not Cam Ward. He does not make good decisions through the air with the game on the line (see Louisville, SMU,for example). The chances of him throwing an INT to a defense who feeds off them on the final drive was relatively high. I just wish he’d have taken the shallow throws before airing it out for a big play that wasn’t there at all. Not even necessary in that situation.

If we were going to beat Indiana, we’d have had to have played a flawless game. Minimal penalties and 0 turnovers. We didn’t and Indiana made us pay. We had a couple calls go against us early but got away with a couple in the 2nd half and I’ll consider that a fairly called game. We were close, yes, 41 yards away. But had we won, it would have been a bit of a shocker considering we were down by 2 scores often throughout the game. Give Indiana credit. They earned that Natty.

No better scenario for Miami than the SEC alongside UF and FSU

Call me crazy, but I think we’d be a FORCE in the SEC. Mario ball matches the style SEC ball and with access to South Florida recruiting and resources a lot of SEC programs don’t have right now. UF certainly knows this and would do whatever they could to prevent us from joining the self proclaimed “Big Bad SEC

Lol @ "the same NCAA members" who "agreed" to these rules challenging them. The student athlete did not agree to them, and the student athlete is the one challenging the decision.

Collective bargaining is coming to college football, and the NCAA's greed and arrogance is the biggest reason for it.

I am pretty sure that language is aimed at Ole Miss and not Chambliss - they just went through a similar thing with Alabama.
