It’s Chaney, not Mario

Even after the alleged fumble, all Miami had to do was stop Tech from driving 50 yards into FG range. The defense had shut down Tech all night long. Even caused an incompletion on the first play after the alleged fumble.

They proceeded to follow this with give up two long completions, one for the game-winning touchdown.

it’s mindnumbing.

Fans tend to have fairly objective views on matters, while fanatics will try to justify & rationalize any bull chit.

Here’s the problem which no one is bringing up, including the media; I tend to record games, & rewatch as a CFB fan v. Hurricane fan on replay:

1. With 2:05 left on the clock, we had the ball at 2nd & 5 in their territory. GT had 2 T.Os left. Chaney rushed for 4.5 yards, making it 3rd & inches. GT uses a T.O, which means we had to discuss the next play.

2. We get the first down w/ ease, forcing GT to call their final T.O w/ 1:57 to go. It’s now 1st & 10 with under 2 min play. The clock is stopped, but upon the whistle, we have 25 secs to run a play. Again, b/c GT called a time out, that meant we had discuss the situation, ONCE AGAIN.

3. Now, some of ya’ll mofos might not know this, but I’m a low key genius when it comes to numbers (legit). So pls follow ur boy down the World of Count Dracula:

-IF we snapped the ball on first down, & let’s just say for the sake of argument since GT can’t stop the clock, TAKE A KNEE, we would’ve run off roughly 3-4 secs. So let’s do some counting:

1. 1st & 10 (knee). Game clock would be roughly around 1:54/3. Play clock now reset to 40 sec.

2. 2nd & 11 (knee). We snap the ball at the 39 sec mark + another 3 secs to kneel, which brings the game clock to roughly 1:12/11. Play clock now resets to 40.

3. 3rd & 12 (knee). We snap the ball at the 39 sec mark + another 3 secs to knee, which brings the game clock to roughly 30/29 secs.

4. 4th & 13. Well, wouldn’t u know we get another 40 secs to snap the ball, but there’s only 30/29 secs left on the game clock which means…u guessed it, there’s no need to run a play.

Tada! Game over.

The most infuriating thing about this loss is there were two opportunities to discuss this on GT’s dime. There’s a reason why once the clock reaches two minutes and the other team can’t stop the clock, the game is over. 2 mins = 120 secs. The offense now has 120 secs to run plays + the 1-3 secs it takes to hike and take a knee.

The fact we continued to run plays once we picked up the first down needed to bleed GTs timeouts was egregious in itself. Jimmy told us to NEVER leave it in the refs hands, & we did. The fact there was even a discussion on holding on to the ball w/ two hands, etc is mind boggling. The discussion should’ve been we only need one more 1st down, and once we get it, victory formation.

Trying to blame Couch (who grossly misplayed the ball), Kam (who grossly overplayed a route), Chaney (who allegedly fumbled), the refs (who allegedly got the call wrong), the DJ, the media, whoever & whomever is ALL MOOT B/C THE GAME WAS OVER, AND WE DID STOOPID **** TO HAND GT AN UNNECESSARY W!

If any fanatic can’t see that ****, stop following football b/c you all sound dumb, goofy, drunk, stupid af for trying to blame anything and anyone besides the HC who’s in charge of this ****.

Brilliant.

We can end all post-GT threads right here.

Importantly, we asked Mario to get out of the way and let Dawson do his job. He did and we blame him because Chaney fumbled. Not right. Mario was self accountable when he said that he should have stepped in. He did not put Dawson under the bus.

No one talks about not taking a knee?? I was talking about it in real-time and I'm no Alfred Einstein.

This is what gets lost in the shuffle here. Mario ran it THREE times too many. He played with fire for 3 plays. A full minute and a half of bull****. It’s way worse than what most are portraying it.
 
Mario is a feckin moron. Has been one for his time here and at Oregon. He's a no-talent *** clown as a HC. He's won shiiite and we paid him like he won a natty. QB, Mannys guy, allAmerican Kinchens safety mannys guy, x mannys guy, f'in Flagg mannys guy.....His all-world OL coach (D'ono) only got good when he got 5* mammoth giants on the line. Good coaches exceed the talent of individual players.

Its inexcusable and a fireable offense to not victory formation.
 
The only explanation I thought is Chaney had like 97 or 95 rushing yards and I thought there not taking a knee to let him get his 100 yards which cost us the game.if it was not that it’s a dumb as decision no matter how it was should’ve just taken the knee and the win

His elbow was down, but I respect your take none-the-less.

Hopefully this adversity leads to being a more disciplined and focused team in practice and on Saturdays.

yes, but it goes both ways b/c Dawson gets lauded for throwing the vertical against aTm based on the result.

Yesterday Dawson called the game the way he wanted, and the question of whether Mario should have stepped in or not is completely based on the outcome of the game.

The L is on Mario's shoulders for sure, but I believe some objective fans are suggesting the performance requires everyone to take personal responsibility.

It doesn’t matter for all the f*ckups. TVD, the bad call to run.

Because it is not and wasn’t a fumble. I’ve watched it 100 times now.

Forward progress should have been whistled by the refs to avoid possible injuries and additional contact BUT with that said his elbow was down. It is BLATANT and OBVIOUS.

There should be immediate action taken by the team, led by the administration, and aided by the fans. Every possible avenue should be utilized to scream from the mountain tops for an appeal and overturning of this call.

It has not only ACC championship rankings, championship implications, but recruiting impacts, and most importantly for CFB - possible playoff implications.

Please @DMoney and @Peter Ariz make noise within the program. Tell them how important it is that they try and fight this. And all of us need to be LAF on social media and send out as many emails as necessary to know that someone is pushing for the correct call to be made. On ESPN they don’t even mention the fumble call.

It is 10000% down. And is obvious and can be changed to where completion of the game can be easily redone. And Miami would be 5-0 with an ugly win that they managed to get despite their QB gifting the Gatech defense with his worse completed game EVER. Our players fought through all of that to gut out a victory that Mario should have kneeled away. But nonetheless WE WON. And if the ACC/NCAA can’t/won’t make this right I want an asterisk next to UMs name for every game with an explanation.

How old are you?
Seriously
 
Family friend reffed Ivy League games and after ******* up a call the Yale coach got his whole crew blackballed from Ivy games.

Rad needs to make sure the same punishment is exacted.

These clowns shouldn't be officiating HS football games.

Out of all the times the refs ****ed us this one blew my mind. Seemed clear as day… honestly don’t even know how they could make that call and not expect a negative reaction. I’m surprised the reaction from the crowd wasn’t worse. Maybe cuz everyone was too shocked we didn’t knee. I think it’d be embarrassing to ask for it to be overturned given the ****** call to not knee but I do think the ACC and reffing should get publicly called out. At what point can you point to a clear bias over a longer period of time having a detrimental and financial impact on the university.

I wondered why Mario wasn’t on the refs harder after some of those ridiculous calls last night. By games end I bet he wanted to just get out and hide for a while.

I blame Jason Taylor. You're an NFL HoF'er. You gotta step in there. For the sanctity of the game that gave you so much.

Clear financial damages. File a civil suit. Lol would be entertaining at least but can’t imagine that hasn’t been tried thousands of times. But ACC should get publicly blasted for their incompetence or rigged games. Hate this **** conference and would love anything that brings negativity towards it.
 
Dumb call by the staff.

Dumb attempt to get more yards by Chaney.

Dumb call by the refs on the review.

Dumb play by Couch.

Dumb play by Kam.

Multiple levels of dumb and we lost.

Dumb is talking about it still. It won't change a thing, we've got it.
