Miami running up the score

Advertisement
I have to say this. It bothered me, a lot, and here's why. Why did we show more urgency, up 28, against Stanford than we did while losing to Louisville?

You only get so many opportunities for live plays (with real tackling). No such thing as running up the score anymore if you sub in depth and if it's against a P4 opponent. I'll take more reps for the future starters over a quaint, foggy notion of sportsmanship.

And it was literally a run up the middle snapped with like 5 seconds on the play clock each time lol

The setup: The rivalry began in 2009 when Jim Harbaugh's Stanford team soundly defeated Pete Carroll's USC Trojans, 55-21. In the final minutes of the game, with the outcome decided, Stanford scored another touchdown and then went for a two-point conversion instead of kicking the extra point.
The confrontation: As the coaches met for their postgame handshake, the intense moment was captured on camera.
Carroll: "What's your deal? You alright?"
Harbaugh: "Yeah, I'm good. What's your deal?"
Carroll: "Nice game."
 
miami has to run up the score with a loss, the problem is until we lost we had a coach that was allergic to doing so.

Fork SVP and Stanford Sally. OSU, Indiana, Georgia, Baga, Clempson and others been “running up the score” on inferior teams for years. But they whoop it up when those teams run their offense and score late. They can both do what they do best and:

Even though I hated Spurrier, the one thing I always liked about him is he would drop 100 on you without a second thought. He used to always say, “It’s not my job to stop us, that’s your job.” If you watch Cignetti at Indiana that dude has zero mercy in him. The entire mentality of that team is to go for the jugular. Sometimes I wish we had more of that in this program.

Miami must run up the score for every game to have a glimmer of a chance to be at-large selection for Playoff Committee.

That 1H against Stanford is going to be talked about in the room and it won't ho well.

Also, SVP and his boyfriend Scuba Steve are well known flaming homosexuals who eat quiche.

****, no more quiche for me
 
A few points here, most of which you guys have already addressed.

1. We’ve got second and third string players in the game and we’re running the ball. Are we supposed to just take a knee? Or punt on first down?

2. We could be fighting for an at large playoff spot which is determined by a group of people who didn’t watch a second of that game. All they see is Miami 42 Stanford 7. If they see Miami 28 Stanford 7 it could potentially hurt our playoff chance.

3. And this is ironic with the SEC’s annual late season cupcake games right around the corner but Miami winning by 35 against a P5 opponent is nowhere near as bad as obliterating some FCS school with 190 pound defensive linemen 70-0. Nobody bats an eye when sacrificial lambs get physically dominated to the point of where it might not even be safe for them. But Miami beats Stanford, a P5 team, who had just beaten Florida State the week before by 35 and it’s some kind of travesty?

**** outta here with that ****.
