On Nov 1 we were dead

[jackedaround]

I told my friends the season was over.

4 wins in a row, some luck this weekend and we are in it.

We were told we had no shot to make it. That a team we beat was better. Untrue.

4 more wins and we have #6.

I honestly thought the season was over too. It's just the pattern in the last 20+ years. But we actually didn't collapse which is refreshing and a nice change of scenery for once.

On to College Station...

if you went to that SMU game you felt it first hand. All us Miami fans were walking out together like zombies from the 'Thriller' video. We were absolutely dead and numb. What you stated is absolutely true and palpable...

100 percent. We walked out in a daze. I thought we were dead.
And then this morning, we had our Lazarus moment when I saw the first pop of orange on the screen.

I like the fact Miami is playing with nothing to lose, should be underdogs in these games as well...

Historically that has been a good thing when Miami has had a good team...

Man once Carson threw that pic against SMU in overtime I walked out the game immediately with my wife and sis in law and told them we were toast to make the playoffs, I was so dejected. To see us buck the trend and actually make the dance I’m on cloud 9. Already bought my Cotton Bowl tickets, I’m believing

This is new life !! .. we have to take advantage of this !! Let it Rip!!

I was there too and remember the walk out of the stadium like it was five minutes ago. If you told me then that we’d be in the playoff 6 weeks later I would have had you committed

 

[TheATLCane]

Fully agree. So what do you think happened that caused us to rise from ashes?

 

[Unclejoey99]

LET IT RIP Coach MARIO CRISTOBAL

my view it was 'adaption from desperation'...

 

[Canestomp]

Longest 12 days of my life between now and TAMU. Fugg, I'm getting nothing done.

 

[mosthated305]

That SMU loss ripped my heart out. Today when that Miami logo popped up on the screen I arose from the dead. Lets go!

What was the primary adaption in your view? Offensive gameplan *throughout* the game is my guess
