Sipping on some coffee, enjoying the fact that we are 4-0.

LSU needed 5 turnovers to score 20 points on UF.

We got 0 and scored 26 (should be 33)

LSU gave up almost 300 yards passing to UF.

We gave up 61.

Even at our worst, we’re still playing better than other teams in the top 5.

Was the passing performance acceptable? Absolutely not. But welcome to CFB. These things happen. We still dominated them. I have faith Beck plays better against FSU.

Go Canes! Back to my coffee now.

I'm really curious to see how Beck handles these next 2 weeks.

It's easy when you're king of the world and everything is going well (pretty much EVERYBODY completely ignored his 2 INTs against USF).

But for the next 2 weeks he's going to hear about how bad he was and he's going to drop off the Heisman and 1st QB lists.

How's he going to lead? How's he going to show up for practice and film sessions?
 
I think some people loose sight of the weather, UF is a good defense, rivalry game, and there’s a reason they had the preseason hype (talent).

They went 0-13 on third down. 0-13!!!!!

We dominated for 3 qts. They had 25 yards in the first half and 8 in the 4th quarter. (Plus or minus a few yards)

We can dissect and pull the negative from the off day in the passing game. But there is plenty more to be very happy with.

Someone play the drake stubbs different direction and not a good situation over there video!!!

I can tell you right now, he’s going to be lethal. Beck will get right during this by week, I can guarantee that.
 
Mario will say it too, we have things that aren’t there still. Adding guys in the portal means you just keep winning by any means necessary and then really start clicking late in the year.

Like someone else said i can’t imagine how this board would have been after 2001 BC game. I think some of you play College Football on easy and get ****ed when you give up TD’s up 77-0.

You can also see some posters almost eager to pounce if we lose with an “I told you so.” We have won in multiple ways, big, close, game winning FG, pull away, dominant, etc. but the one consistent is late in games both our lines start to absolutely do what they want. We will have more close games. It’s 2025 and match ups vary. But as long as we are close late and not digging out of a hole I feel pretty good with our lines.

This stat blows my mind. Must be so demoralizing to dem gata
 
This team has had as good of a start to the season as anyone could ask for. To be 4-0 with so many question marks answered, while still having so much to improve on. They have passed the first test of the season and this bye is coming at the perfect time. I am looking forward to seeing this team get better, if they can play an A game on both sides of the ball, there isn’t a team in the nation that can beat them.

This could be a special season fellas. Do yourself a favor and try to enjoy it, without nitpicking at every little thing, it’s football other teams will score on them and stop them it happens.

There are definitely and handful of posters that will be happy if we drop one. I just don’t get it.
 
I honestly think the staff is willing to go 2023 Michigan style. If the offensive game plan is it going according to plan… If that makes sense.

FSU’s probably going to try the same defensive game plan as Florida don’t know their secondary capability

The center must figure it out because Florida state is an away game and the crowd is going to be wild
 
Defensive score for Miami could be the best in the country by year end. They are insanely good through 4 but fsu, Louisville, cuse could change things

FSU can try. But again, we’ll run all over them. If they load the box, they force Beck to make throws, which he absolutely can. They need to pray he has another off night.

And sign me up for 2023 Michigan. I don’t care how we do it: bring me another national championship. It could be Wing T for all I care. Do whatever is necessary to get us to the playoffs.

Miami got two "turnovers" w/ 4th down stops...

How YUUUUGE was that big stop on the 30yd line?

Go Canes!!!!

I believe Miami should have scored +22 more points than tbey did co sidering how Offense started...

He said in the interview on the field right after the game he will be watching film first thing today. Kid knows what’s at stake. Two weeks to get reps with lye and jojo as well. 3 headed monster at RB.

Pre season is over and Miami is 4-0
