Embarrassing

1.) Alabama receivers were running free and fast 2.) If you can't run the ball then spread them out and throw it. Short and long. 5 to 7 yard chunks add up. 3.) It seemed like the game was too big for coaches. 4.) Alabama blocked, tackled and schemed well. They were very well prepared.

Then you shouldn’t be frustrated. That being said, I’m measuring Mandy against Mandy. He continues to show he’s clueless. This guy sounds like he draws strategies and schemes in the sand like a 5 yr old playing with plastic toy soldiers, making explosion sounds with his mouth. I see no progress in big games (and lower opponents) over the last three years. Some body mentioned here how portal players are the only ones hauling *** every time. That speaks volumes about this guy’s coaching IQ.

Agreed, and I said the same thing. Looked like they were not even coaching to win. Absolutely nothing in the play calling or designed schemes suggested it. It's like they knew we would lose and the Bama game was just a preseason scrimmage before the real season opener with App St.

I'm convinced they just used that game for personnel evaluation purposes and just wanted to end it quickly and without injuries.

Can guarantee Manny thinking was: We can't beat Bama, and I don't even want to try. I need to win the ACC Coastal to keep my job. It's a long season, and I need to make sure my guys are healthy and fresh the whole season to get me 10 wins.

And agreed. Our hope rests in our young guys because our upperclassmen are mediocre at best. When you have to rely on guys like Jennings, Ivey, McCloud, Gaynor, Wiggins, Carter, Harris and Scaife, then there's just so far you can go.

Bruh… I should have known that as soon as I saw 8 and 44 lined up out there in any capacity on our defense, that the fix was in.
 
we looked very weak physically.....our S&C program is in the dark ages, no explosive type players or plays period.
attend game and it looked sad..... if Saban wanted to he could have put 60+
team as is CMD's usual showed up flat and unprepared and again lacked discipline penalties, targeting calls
need to abandon turnover chain, we looked silly down 27 points pulling out some gaudy chain celebrating me instead of team
agree with earlier post poor player development,,,,,, no-one gets any better.........
buck stops with CMD however that should extend to President/BOT/AD who have overseen this mess
when will ACC say to Miami earn your keep and get of the welfare roll

Looking at this game in hindsight, it’s almost as if Manny and Co. wasn’t really trying to win this game. It looked like the college version of an NFL Preseason game. Get through it, and get nobody hurt, **** the score! Think about the game plan we saw. The last time MD was calling plays, he would always seem to make adjustments after the first few series….. at least after the first half! I saw no noticeable adjustments other than some younger personnel in the game. It’s like we were so afraid of getting 70 hung on us. So afraid of Bama’s speed, so afraid of ****ing Saban off, that we just set back and did NOTHING. IDK man, maybe I’m grasping for straws to try to explain what I saw on that field, Saturday. At least the youngins that played didn’t look outta place Vs. bama, so we got that going for us, I guess.
