Mike Ryan predicting us to lose again before the ACC CG?

No, 1st as in they have given up the least amount of sacks in America. Duke has given up the 2nd least. They don’t get sacked.

Is Duke pass pro actually good or are those sack numbers a consequence of their playcalling and riding Sheppard for their offense?

They run a lot and get the ball out very quick. Heathermen discussed this yesterday. He said teams are getting the ball out so quick it’s hard to get sacks. Just need to get pressure on qb’s and why he played more press man agaisnt ND.

Maybe he is realizing you can play bail coverage when the ball is getting out in less than 3 seconds. He said ND and Duke get it out under 2.5 seconds which is lightning quick .
 
Did he actually say he thinks Miami lost or is it the usual putting words in his mouth because we hate his politics?

Did I just hear that right on Le Batard?

I don’t get who he thinks we are losing to at home?

Surely I heard that wrong.

No chance we lose one of these last 3 home games after taking the L to ND imo.

It's obviously possible and I get him having residual feelings of Cane inadequacy because the prior 2 decades, and yes, Duke could legitimately beat us - no question about it. However, since we barely lost our last game on a controversial call and Mario is ****ed, I do think we take care of business against the Dukies and cover.

As always, we'll see what happens, but Mensah really seemed to take the ND loss personally and I think despite not having Mali, he will come out firing on all cylinders - especially with it being his former team, etc.
 
Let me tell you guys what has happened over the last several weeks.
All of us have noticed since game one that our oline was ahss juice.
But people still respected it because their job depends on not looking stupid.
Notre dame with a depleted d line just made everyone see that the interior of our oline is so bad that they can’t just run over it. And put an embarrassing amount of pressure on our qb.

Nobody respects our oline for the rest of the season. Duke knows they are better than fsu.

Our secondary is awful. Like the kind of secondary and defensive scheme that makes qb stay up at night not cause they’re scared, but because of the amount of yards they’re about to put up.
No qb or oc is worried.

Lastly, our dline. People respected it and planned gainer all the pressure.
Cj Carr had his best game.
Edwards had his best game.
They even managed to give norvell More time.
Nobody is scared of it.

And that’s tue problem. Nobody is afraid oft is team anymore.
 
the overreaction in the fan base is a lot...

go back to early November on this board last year and see what people were saying after the Lou, Stanford, SMU games when we were 6-2...

Thread 'D’onofrio / Mirabal'

Mirabal is Mario’s Donofrio.

Nothing will change until Mario comes to terms that his offensive approach is holding this team back.

-OL penalties kill us
-RBs skills are not utilized
-TEs are not utilized.

Mirabal needs go as does Dawson.

Watch any college game and see how other offenses work.

Thread 'Mario & Mirabal'

Need to stop handcuffing our OC.

Notre Dame should’ve been a 14 point win. Florida should’ve been game over in the 1st half. FSU should’ve been 28+ point win.

For someone who preaches what he does you’d assume he’d want total domination from start to finish. The early games were a warning and we never learned. You cannot go conservative you lose.

Seems like our OC is being forced to call games away from his philosophy.

Post in thread 'For those still hoping for a turn around with Mario.'

Well someone above him needs to let him know he needs to change. The problem comes from his offensive philosophy and Mirabal. Mirabal has been his OL coach and where has most of Mario’s teams penalties come from?

He is who is. He can recruit but he can’t coach to save his life and you’ll never win with him

Thread 'No more defending this staff'

anyone who does is worst than when Andrew fully supported Manny after UNC ran for 1,386,467 yards against us in one game.

everybody needs to calm down...
i expect us to be playing our best footbal for the rest of this month and to get a top 4 seed (yes, we'll be ranked ahead of ND after we win the ACCCG).
