Just back from the game. Some 1:30AM thoughts

I appreciated the lack of self-inflicted wounds. Other than the INT and fumble, we played a pretty clean game.

I certainly hope Mario makes Brashard Smith run extra gassers for that fumble on the one yard line. That was a near disaster. Just hold the ******* ball high and tight and get what the play gives you. That was a bonehead move on his part. Two defenders within reach and he holds the ball out? Dumb **** move!!

Perhaps my favorite win since Notre Dame 2017. The way the team played, the Emory Williams factor, the game ending on a goal line stand. Just awesome.

• "Perhaps the most one-sided officiating Ive ever seen.
  • The block below the waist on Lee - he was tripped by the Clemson LB. When TV showed the replay, they started the video just after the trip.
  • Bad PI call on 3rd and 20 where the DB got his head around and hand on the ball.
  • No call on intentional grounding before their first TD.
  • The Safety. Absolute ACC cheating bull****. My seats are right along the goal line. I had a perfect view of that.
  • During the nine minute drive, at one point a Clemson player drops to the ground, clearly faking an injury, and the ACC Network immediately jumps in with a three minute commercial break. Giving Clemson's D a free timeout. It just seemed coordinated. lol
  • It seems to me that the worst officiated games are the ones on the ACC Network."

Swofford still likes to watch "his baby" and the refs know the there will be repercussions if they don't call a Miami ACC Network game "correctly"

Yep, crowd felt like 45k+, less than GTech game but right around the same as TAMU. Crowd was loud tho and most importantly STAYED the entire game.

Totally agree, I was actually surprised by the turned out. I was thinking this would be a bad one but they got a pretty good crowd

ACC refs have been dreadful. Let’s ride to the B1G.

I hate everything about the ACC. ****ed every way possible except when we are no threat. Even then we get the short end

Crowd sounded loud tho

95 db once according to my watch. 90db several times.

Good stuff, great analysis.
I was curious on thoughts on the officiating from someone that was at the game.
On TV, it was egregious I thought I might lose my mind. The NO safety call, was unlike anything I’ve ever seen. QB didn’t even throw it away, he went down in the endzone, and everyone whitenesses it.
They reviewed it, plain as day it was a safety and they still didn’t make the right call. They clearly don’t even try to hide their corruption. Like you said it just flat out cheating at this point.
UM administrators, can’t let this go on any longer.
This ACC referee incompetence or corruption WILL lose us more games besides GT.

Blatantly taking points off the board on us. Andthe ACC network, when I was watching the game I was thinking I’ve heardthis guys voice before, speaking of Wes Durham, on play by play. Turns out I had. His father, who he sounds just like, was the “voice of the Tar Heels” basketball for 40 years…… no bias at all right……
