Classic. Anyone supporting the program is now an "apologist" and anyone who's given up on things three years into the Richt era is a modern-day "realist".
Miami looked "ready to play" against both Virginia Tech and Pittsburgh—backs to the wall and delivering. Once they got that road win in Blacksburg, wasn't really "anything to play for" as the Canes already locked up a bowl bid, yet came to play with revenge on the mind.
Wisconsin beat Miami in an Orange Bowl game these kids felt they should've won. They get another shot at redemption and a rematch—the defense playing for Diaz in his final game, as well.
Canes could very well lose to the Badgers, but not for your whining-*** "lethargic and not read to play" reasoning.
