I probably should make some of these.. nahhh
Anyways
1) Run Defense (Specifically front 7)
- Duke were able to create holes in the run game and that just can't happen against FSU. We CAN NOT bail out FSU by allowing them to establish a run game period. If we shut down their run and they beat us throwing the ball 30+ with a true freshman then kudos to them because at that point they deserved to win.
2) O-line
- People are talking about what we're gonna to their O-line but lets not forget the fact that our O-line isn't any better either it just less worse then FSU's. Last time I checked their D-line is still better then our O-line even if you don't think FSU D-line is "elite" do they need to be to take advantage of our O-line's inability to deal with athletic pass rushers? Lets be real for a minute. I don't like how people are ignoring this match-up because they don't think FSU D-line is as good as they were hyped to be as if our O-line is good-elite. During the 7 game losing streak to FSU our O-line has been one of the biggest reason why we lose to them.
3) Kick Offs
- This will be the most under look match-up of the game. Badgely better not allow one kickoff return. FSU has one of the best kickoff averages in the country and I think everyone here knows Miami has been TERRIBLE covering kickoffs. Even Bethune was getting to the 30 yard line on a consistent basis. If we keep allowing kickoff returns with the speed FSU has they will break one and that could end up being the difference because it always a play one play that we didn't make that turned out to be the difference or turn the tide of the game in their favor. ALWAYS.
2011: Punt Return TD by FSU just before the half.
2012: Fumble by Morris.
2013: Morris under throws a wide open Stacy Coley deep for a TD. Int.
2014: Berrios Drop in the endzone. Lead to miss FG attempt. Battling a pass only for the FSU RB to catch it and score.
2015: Up 1 point on 3rd Down Chad Thomas barely misses battling a FSU pass which would of been huge as they were a little backed up.
2016: Flag on Walton's run, Interception, or Extra Point blocked.
