Had to work and watched game thru texts and quick score alerts. Crazy my peception of the game then and now that I have watched it. Yes, the end was a world-class debacle BUT the game was just strange. Different uniforms, TVD off night etc. I know I will get the hates for this but it looked like a rivalry game. Slugfest first half. Offenses get going second half. Miami looks to have it and then an outlier that changes outcome.
Disappointed in the loss and mismanagement. Curious about the rebound week. Not sure we have it in us but we will see*

*apologies for rational thoughts

You forgot about the off and on rain and injuries. The refs…I said it all last night. We are cursed, and burn the dam uniforms.

Even if he did realize he could kneel and instead this was allowing the attempt to get Chaney 100 yards, the math doesn't work. The potential cost (we saw) is simply not worth the risk (in a 3 point game). And, that's the type of analysis you'll have to make over and over in football games. So how do you trust we can consistently reach the right conclusions?

Agree.
If he was doing for optics he should have already known that the optics of that game had already been lost. Getting Chaney over 100 was not going to make any difference in that.
 
The team, the players, they are on point this year.

Ok,TVD sucked last night. Everyone has **** performances.

The team showed resilience during the A&M game. They were obviously shaken after this game. Can they rally around EACH OTHER and get back on the rails?

Dawson can coach, his plan for this game wasn't up to par. Overall the defense played well for the majority of the game. TVD, we know he's streaky and prone to bad outings.

It's up to the players to rally and play for each other on Saturday. This is the first time in a while I feel like we have a roster that can do that. I certainly hope they do. But, I am also a damaged UM football fan.

I had to watch the game on my phone and don’t have detailed thoughts, but my wife isn’t talking to me this morning and my head hurts. This sucks.

We all expected Mario to blow a game because of gameday blunders. But it didn’t need to be a national humiliation.

The UNC game just became the most important game in years. There is a real risk that the team loses trust in Mario after a botch like that. A loss can send the season off the rails. A win gets us back on an upward trajectory.

Salute to all the maniacs who still care after a loss like that. We are the college football version of Job. Hopefully, it will all be worth it one day. See you on Saturday night.

I wonder if TVD thought of changing the play at the los and taking a knee?
 
That entire staff had about 10 minutes of real time - more than 4 minutes of game time - to think about how to competently end the game. The entire final drive was called with the intention of running out the clock. This was not difficult math calculation that snuck up on them. It was, literally, the purpose of the drive: get to a point where we can kneel to end the game. Lmao

Well there is another scenario that's even worse in my opinion.
They knew they could take a knee but ran it anyway to get Chaney over 100 to try to salvage the optics of the game.

Not that it matters with the botched call not taking the knee, but Mario and Dawson IMO screwed up the last offensive play of game too not throwing a hail Mary in the end zone to Young or someone that can jump and have a chance to catch it. Wtf! Worst coaching blunder ever with not taking a knee and horrendous last 2 min of game coaching.

This. I'm thinking to myself, you have to do a hail mary there not backyard ball. Awful.
 
DVD was off and the end was a colossal meltdown. But I think the players pick Mario up and we win 1 of the next 2 and track to an 8 win season. It was bad, but it wasn’t FIU or Middle Tenn St bad.

We all know Mario is a gameday corch of the highest order. Always has been and always will be. The rest of this season will ride on which version of TVD we get from here on out.

If we get the TVD from the A&M game, we'll have a puncher's chance against everyone on our schedule. If he plays like he did last night and like he did last season, then we're in for one **** of an implosion that we won't recover from.

My biggest issue is that he is the best qb we have had and will have for awhile, and Mario has never recruited qbs well. Last night was a glimpse into the future of no downfield passing threat and it came down to the wire with a 2-3 team, exactly the type of games that happened in Oregon

Respectfully disagree on how bad it was.
The other part I hope you are right.

Yes. Either way Mario wins 🥇 for dumbest coach in America. It’s on him. He had to be thinking about it that entire drive. Putting it on Dawson, his subordinate, is pure trash.
