Duce’s TD was a blessing (in disguise)

[MiamiFanDan]

Anyone else think during the game how lucky we were the ending played out how it did?

My concern on FSUs final scoring drive was they would go for two to ice the game (FSU had nothing to lose - why not). Duce scoring so quickly took away the ability for FSU to do that. As we had two minutes on the clock.

We got lucky again on the 1st OT because FSU went first. Had we gone first, we score a touchdown + extra point and they go for two to win the game.

Not a bad observation. They totally would have gone for two if there wasn’t much time left.

Idk with their stretch of 4th down plays and turning over on downs against Lousville and then us twice, going for 2 and failing would have Mike left on the tarmac. Someone would have probably executed him on the sideline for that.

We're lucky he's a clown and didn't take the FGs early. We left points on the board failing our 4th down and not kicking the FG and then Mensah's interception. We also went conservative on the 50 with 2 min left in the game and could have won it there. Played for OT.

Felt it was one of the worst coached games I've watched all year on both teams. Just poor management overall. Low football IQ by our players, especially on the hail mary attempts. Mike was working Hetherman all night with the screen plays.

Call me crazy, but I think it's always better to you know, stop the opposing team from scoring...especially with a lead late in the 4th Quarter. Then again, I think TikTok sucks.

Obviously …

I don’t think them scoring a 75 yard go route on the first play of the drive was “lucky.”

Would have rather the defense got a stop. That simple.

I don't like it but I see the logic in what you are saying.

 

[BigDikDaddyFromCincinnati]

Obviously …

Obviously you had to make a post stating the contrary?

I think the point is. If FSU was going to score it was good that it was so quick.

 

[Angry Ibis]

Do you think Mario got outcoached on purpose to help Mike keep his job?

Yes. taking away the lead and huge excitement of the stadium on a 75 yard play was pure brilliance by our defense.

Exactly … I didn’t think it needed to be spelt out that obviously for some folks lol

Obviously them scoring is not a positive

Thanks for sperling it out for us.

Im curious - with your big brain, if they drive slowly and score with 30 seconds on the clock. What do you think FSU does?

Sure, maybe. Way too many variables to know how it would have played out.
