Miami vs Ole Miss Playoff Semifinal 1/8/26 Game Thread

[WndyCityCane]

This is exactly how Mario teams lose every game they lose.

Playing conservative. Scared, not to lose.

They only had 24 plays so our defense should be rested.

 

[JustAFanHTX]

Nah, different game, different opponent.

Yes. A much better opponent that only needs an inch. Smu needed us to beat ourselves. Ole miss doesn’t need the help they’ll do it on their own. The margins matter

 

[Kempo Cane]

**** dominated the first half and it doesn't show on the scoreboard, that usually bites you in the ****, let's go canes

 

[Pearson704]

Better change some things up at the half.

our mental approach.

Time for Day to hit the portal

I’m pretty sure they aren’t hitting the portal hard/taking that Thornton commitment so we can have guys like Day playing. A pick there saves 3 and might have been 6.

Need to get to 31 to ice this IMO

DLine has to get home

 

[Braduhley]

A cute play call and our safety taking a dog **** angle are the reason we aren’t up double digits

 

[ZeroBeachCane3]

30 mins and we come home for all the marbles boys

 

[NosniknoT]

Need to score after halftime. Should be up by 10 at least and they have let Ole miss hang around

 

[LPK2006]

Miami scores outta half and we are in good shape. Just clean it up

I *think* if we score out of half, and then get it to at least 31, we're good here. Absent some stupid **** I think 2 TDs will do it

 

[Ghandi]

Very sloppy defense on Miami’s side.

I haven’t seen poor tackling like that since the SMU/Louisville games.

I don’t know how you correct wrapping and tackling in 20min at halftime.

The football gods have pulled Lacey off the field.

Miami HAS to win.

 

[RealRussellPumps]

Come out and score and we’re right back in business

 

[Negro-Wan Kanobi]

9/10 if a DB could catch the ball... they would be a WR instead. Would have loved to have 6 more on the board but Day isnt that catching that most times.

Put some weight on him, make him a Will.

 

[StPeteCane]

Really hoping this game doesn't come down to a fg cause, ****. That dude can kick.

 

[scrantoncane]

We played meh, and we're up 4 with receiving the ball now.

I can somewhat live with it...

Played meh? Are you watching the same game as me?!

Our coaches are too conservative. Our players are beating the **** out of them.

 

[Mnhurricane]

We should be up by a bunch. We are playing meh but so are they. We better buckle the **** up. Could have been a pick 6 and penalties are killing us. Teams don’t stay beat for 4 quarters see the OSU game. We need a cushion for when they punch back.

And for the love of god we can’t play not to lose. Always always always against inferior teams

 

[ShadowSpring]

Literally the only rushing yards they have is the TD

 

[joeB954]

I have mixed feelings about the first half. We aren’t playing good but we are still winning. A lot of mistakes made. Should be a blowout. Can’t let this team hang around.
