Did Mario think ND was out of timeouts at the end?

[GeorgiaHurricane]

In the 4th quarter ND had a player stay down and they called for an injury timeout. I bet Mario thought the refs had took one of their timeouts for the injury

50/50 blame to both Mario and Dawson. He should’ve been aware of the timeouts just the same as Mario and the should’ve talked it over. I was honestly ****ed that we didn’t put the ball in Becks hand to try and finish the game off right then and there, but at least it led to some great plays from Mesidor & Bain.

Let me refresh some memories for the petty mfers.

Because 1 timeout doesn't mean anything with that amount of time left.

What's the expected win percentage if you have the ball down by 3 with a minute left and 1 timeout versus zero? In college football? Very, very minimal.

It's far more important to get closer for your kicker and kick the ball with no time remaining in the process than it is them burning their last timeout.

UNLESS......you thought the other team didn't have any timeouts, because a minute with no timeouts versus under 30 seconds with no timeouts is a MASSIVE win expectancy delta.

We'll never know the true story but it was a "Holy ****!" moment for me just now finishing the first rewatch. Maybe I interpreted it incorrectly, but I've been watching ball for many, many, many years and seen just about every iteration of body language and reactions in just about every possible situation, and to me, that looked like a dude who was shocked the clock stopped again. Would love to be wrong because I love Mario and I think this is a really good football team right now and it's built to last.

If ND had that last timeout the clock wouldn’t have ran out after our final sack. So it came in handy to let them burn it.

Was a horrible sequence. Some mongoloids on here disagree but first down ends the game (with a made kick) so you put a premium on that. Analytics would agree. Mario is still a bad clock manager

I wasn’t as confident in our ability to convert that 3rd and 4 as other people. If we call a pass play and it’s incomplete, you’re giving Notre Dame a timeout to set up a field goal attempt. If we call a pass play and take a sack. We’re hoping for overtime.

It’s all semantics at this point and just a fun discussion but the way the refs were allowing their DBs to manhandle our receivers, I wasn’t confident that we could easily get that first down.

100% this.

Tbh, I wasn't very confident we'd convert with a pass but thought the odds were better than the run we called. Risk of Beck getting sacked/turning it over pretty low IMO. One read, throw it in the dirt if it isn't there.

I didn't like what we called, pulling CiCi, asking Bauman to win against Traore on the edge (he got destroyed which screwed up the play), and asking Bell to get a block on a LBer on second level (which he whiffed on). If we were gonna run it, would rather we had just run Brown behind Cooper and CiCi like we did 4 plays earlier for an 8 yard gain.

Yeah, I think some on here need a reminder. Mario can call all the mind boggling timeouts he wants if he has us looking like we can lineup against anyone.

I never want to go back to the soft *** teams I had to watch for 2 decades. If we drop a game every year because of Mario’s shenanigans I can live with it.

Again, that is a different issue. You can have unlimited "injury timeouts". But you are docked a REAL timeout for a FAKE injury.

For some people, it's not about logic. They want to be miserable. Success is scary because it's the biggest threat to that misery.

I had season tickets in front of some Canes fans a few years ago and these guys never cheered or made a peep when Miami did well but you couldn't get them to shut up when things were going bad.

 

[RVACane]

Or he’s just saying it to cover their asses or maybe it’s true . I will say watching Mario coach in a close game as a Cane fan is like watching somebody trim your pubes with a chain saw

There’s a bad case of PTSD in the fan base, but for good reason.

As for Mario and staff, success will breed confidence and the killer instinct. They know they have the team but are still trying to get over the hump and not mess **** up. Reminds me of “Clemsoning” before they finally put it together.

 

[nycane]

I think he thought they burned it on an injury.

the one in the first half he said the defensive guy was on top our player for like 10 seconds and he called it because the refs did nothing.

Here’s a real ? since I’ve never been to HRS (although I’m planning on it)…does the scoreboard list team timeouts like other stadiums?

 

[NJshoreCane]

I don't know which scoreboard you were watching, but I was on the ND side, and the scoreboard I was looking at showed they had one MORE than they atually had.

I'm on your side, actually right behind you in row 1 of the club section.
Yes, that's what I posted.
It was the center scoreboard showing 2 TO's when only 1 was left.

Yes it’s shown.

 

[NJshoreCane]

I thought I was the only one that noticed the officials weren't taking away timeouts for injuries of defensive players in this game...

The rule (I believe) only applies if the player goes down after the ball is spotted.

 

[Rellyrell]

Yes it’s shown.

Thank u; b/c apparently we hired a guy who’s supposed to curate this, so I’m not sure how you don’t know a team’s timeout situation when all u need to do is either look up or that staff member tells u.

 

[MumbleRap]

That is something the head coach should verify during the injury.

Both can be true. There needs to be a new term other than “Injury timeout” now due to new rule.

That vernacular seems pretty obvious to me…

added a pic, that’s the facade of the 300 level looking from the home side. So they just need to look up at the 50yd line. The clock is just to the right.

Devils advocate, what’s shown might not necessarily be correct (think in baseball not having the count correct).
