I'm sick and tired of watching the Miami Hurricanes play like **** on the road. Especially in "cold" weather.
Been that way since Larry Coker, and it ****es me off to watch because it makes South Florida look soft.
I was talking to a friend of mine who went to Virginia Tech. He told me what they think about Miami - he said Miami and FSU are emotional.... when they're on a high, nobody can beat them, but as soon as they face adversity, they play like garbage. He said they don't have any toughness. As soon as it gets uncomfortable, Miami quits and goes home.
Basically, the perception is that we're soft.
The only time teams fear us is when they have to come to Hard Rock to play. Virginia didn't fear us. They were in our grill all day, and they whipped us physically. They talked **** and backed it up, and we didn't do ****. The team took it like a bunch of ******* and went home with the L.
BC doesn't fear us. VT doesn't fear us.
This team doesn't have any toughness. Just look at how we "tackle." Just look at our special teams. I hate to say it, but ever since Butch Davis left, we've been and continue to be SOFT.
There's about 3-4 times Miami proved this wrong last year. They also proved this wrong being down 20 against FSU (who was 72-0 when leading by 20). Also, the TEAM doesn't look soft, tackling DOESN'T suck (first Mobile QB we played all year and we held them to 16 points?). Don't get extreme. Our OL is sub par but they get no assistance with our play calling and vanilla offense. Our special teams coverage team would probably rival for fastest in the nation and we have some dogs who can make open field tackles on it, but our Special teams corch is clueless with schemes in addition to plain coaching up the punter/kicker.
