Miami vs. Florida State November 15 Predictions

Advertisement
Already predicted it in another thread last week and yesterday. Miami 35, FSU 31. Duke over 200 total yards and 2 TDs. AND one helluva tailgate.
 
Tough game to predict. Miami has played their best football the last 3 games in over the past 10 years. Sure, the competition has been average or slightly above average. At the same time, if Miami was only playing average as well, they don't sit their starters when up 41-13, 30-0, and 37-6 in the 3rd quarter of each game. They are playing great all around football right now and clicking on all cylinders. The pressure is picking up and the players are making quicker decisions and trusting the system a lot more(sure, go ahead and hate on this line. I've watched the games over and over and over and it's pretty easy to see how much better they are understanding the system now and making the right decisions and not freelancing). If the offense can protect the ball, this can be a win.

If Miami protects the ball and plays defense like they have been, then 38-28. If Kaaya wants to turn into the turnover machine he was during the Nebraska and GT games, then it's a 17-41 loss. As long as the offense is smart with the ball and they allow Kaaya the chance to step up there is a chance. And if the defense plays assignment football, then they can definitely win. Go back to freelancing and turning the ball over and it's the Nebraska game all over again.

In years past especially last year we literally limped into this game and our #7 ranking didn't reflect how badly we were playing. We seemed to get worse last season as the year went on.

This year we are actually showing improvement as the season goes on and coming off 2 really good performances against teams (Va Tech and NC) who have had our number in years prior

Last year I had zero confidence we could win the game with how we were playing and how FSU was dominating, but this year is different. They are not dominating and are beatable. Its going to take the full 60 minutes to win this game

MIA 34
FSU 31

And fsu misses the tie with a wide right as the clock runs out. Jimbo does a faultless Bowden impression and is later carried away to a psychiatric facility...
 
F$U - 31
Canes - 27

We hold the lead all game until the end when our prevent D rears it's ugly head.

aaargh!!! i wanna believe but against quality opponents our offense struggles to put up 20+ points and the defense rarely holds quality opponents below 30+. until golden/coley/dip**** show they can beat a good team i just can't believe.

31-20 fsu. good first half, same ol second half. i agree with another poster, next year in trailerhassee we get them.
