We got lucky on that one

Sure did. Definitely should have been a penalty. Sick of being a fan of a dumb team. 15 yrs of stupid in game decisions by coaches and players. It seems like we might be turning that around but dumb **** like Nesta and Patchan’s last one has to stop.

Excellent synopsis as always, LCE. You nailed all points so not much to argue or add.

I think we are seeing a young OL starting to gel and take the next step, and we are seeing Jarren take ownership of the team.

Lastly, it’s good to see Enos finally wake up and adjust to his personnel. We are a pass first shotgun offense that uses the run to close out games. This ain’t Bama, and I think he’s finally grasped that.

Nice win against a team with a dangerous offense and full of players from S FL who would have loved to show out on our field.

We ran 32 times and passed only 23. That’s hardly pass first. The primary difference is going from the gun.

I am having deja vu to Kaaya’s last season when we dropped 4 straight, then richt finally adjusted the offense and let him sling it from the gun. Both jarren and kaaya are deadly accurate pocket passers that see the field better from the gun, but both of whom are heavy footed. Jarren can move better than Kaaya could, but he is better once he breaks contain - his footwork within the pocket to avoid the rush still needs work.

Wish we didn’t have a bye next week so we could keep this rolling. It’s not like we need to get healthy for fiu.

I hope you're right. For the life of me I have no idea why he waited so long to go full RPO but I'm glad he finally did.

I have no problem admitting when I'm wrong, so I'll be hoping that's exactly what happens next year.

I believe Manny has been very direct with what he wants to see from both the offense and the defense. Just my observation. We know he got involved on D, but there's chunks of the offensive playbook that have disappeared to Richt-lantis, too.

Bruh...

The DE group of Rousseau, Garvin, Phillips, Harvey, Cam Williams & the incoming Frosh of Quentin, Romello H, Chantz & possibly Jaylen Harrell... No team in the ACC is fckin with that, SCARY!

We could possibly go 6-7 deep at DE with all starting caliber players & that's not even including the DT's.

The DLine depth for 2020 is going to be a monstrosity!

We have some recruiting problems on defense but that dline will mask a lot of it lol

He was a QB in HS & I guess they couldn't project him to being a WR at the next level, idk...

But a kid with his speed & natural athleticism from Liberty City should always have an offer from Miami.

I remember you used to y’all about him all the time that we should offer him he was always a dynamic kid in high school

How the **** are we going to replace Jimmy Murphy next season?

that punt TO was huge and I still don’t know how he came up with that ball.

Agree, and his footwork looks much better because the game has slowed way down for him, his mental clock was visibly ahead of the movements of their defense. He looked smooth stepping up into throws and there was no panic like early in the season.

It also helps that the oline is holding blocks at least 2 to 3 whole seconds longer now.

Offense:

Jarren Williams - 15/22 253yds 6TD's, 7att 23yds rushing
Deejay Dallas - 15att 96yds 1TD at 6.3ypc, 1rec 14yds & 1TD
Cam'ron Harris - 8att 78yds
Mike Harley - 6rec 116yds 2TD's
Dee Wiggins - 3rec 85yds 2TD's
Will Mallory - 1rec 17yds 1TD
KJ Osborn - 3rec 5yds, 5 KR's 104yds & 2 PR's 36yds

Gained 450yds total yards (252yds passing & 197yds rushing), 5-10 on 3rd down with 26:58 minutes of Time of possession.

Jarren!!! Broke the all time passing TD's record in a single game at Miami! JW has played phenomenal throwing 9TD's & 0INT's in his last 3 games, he's completely taken the reigns as the leader of the Offense & the clear cut best QB.

Enos called a great game, he's continued the recent trend of playing the majority of the snaps from the Gun & utilizing the RPO heavy, it's literally what most of us have been asking for all year! Idk what took him so **** long but I'm glad his eyes were finally opened, this offense operates BEST as a Pass first RPO team, when we stretch the field & force Defenses to defend the Deep ball everything else opens up underneath. If we would've been running this style since Week 0 we'd be looking at a completely different record this season.

Deejay played another great game, he always runs tough & with explosion, rarely ever goes down on first contact & is by far the toughest player on Offense. He's the offensive catalyst that makes the team go.

Killa Cam is big run waiting to happen, he's got gamebreaker acceleration when he gets to the 2nd level of the Defense, he's a one cut & go style runner that once he bounces outside is **** near gone every time. His upside can be crazy for next year, I think he's going to be a big time back by his Junior year.

Mike Harley balled TF out today, he played his best game of his career & as of lately has been coming on as a very reliable WR. He makes tough catches & has improved his route running since last year. He's finally starting to maturate into the legit threat out of the slot that he was envisioned to be coming out of STA. I also know he's a great lockeroom guy, his teammates swear by him, he's definitely a leader in the WR room.

Wiggins has special upside, after struggling with some drops as a TF he's emerged as a big time playmaker in this WR group, his combination of size & speed make him our most dangerous WR when it's time to break the game open. His ability to get open & catch in full stride reminds me of Allen Hurns except faster.

Was happy to see Mallory get a TD catch, with Brevin out he played solid. Still can't block lol but he can be a very good pass catching TE for us with more development over the next couple years.

The OL has played its best football coming down the stretch, they've finally gelled & have figured out how to slow down the tide of the pass rush. They still have their lapses throughout the game & still get beat from time to time, but they are are decidedly better than they were just a few weeks ago. Good job by Coach Barry.

The offense played its best game of the season. As I pointed out in my keys to the game thread, Louisville had the 101st ranked total Defense, 106th ranked pass defense & 87th in run defense coming into this game, there was no way on Earth we weren't going to carve these fools up. They have one of the worst Secondaries in D1 ball & they were ripe to be exploited. The offense had to put up points to put the game away early & they did just that, when we play to our strengths & stretch the field with the big play offense this team can play with just about anybody.

Defense:

Michael Pinckney - 8tcks 3TFL's & 1 sack
Robert Knowles - 7tcks
Shaq Quarterman - 6tcks 4TFL's
Amari Carter - 4tcks & 1FF
DJ Ivey - 4tcks 1INT & 1TFL
Al Blades Jr - 4tcks 1PBU & 1INT
Te'Cory Couch - 4tcks
Scott Patchan - 3tcks 1.5TFL
Trevon Hill - 3tcks 1TFL
Nesta Silvera - 3tcks
Jon Garvin - 2tcks 1TFL & 1 sack
Gurvan Hall Jr - 3tcks
Gregory Rousseau - 1tcks 1PBU


Gave up 496yds total (328yds passing), but held LVille to just 5/14 on 3rd down & forced 3 Turnovers.

I know many of yall might think of this as a bad Defensive performance, but if you know anything about Louisville you would know that this is literally what they do every game.

They averaged 444.6 yards per game & 32.8 points per game coming into today, they had only been held to below 20 points just twice all season vs Notre Dame & Clemson. This was the 35th ranked Offense we faced today, it was going to be virtually impossible to completely shut them down the same way we did vs FSU, their speed & big play ability was something that we just didn't matchup against well, which is why it was so important for our Offense to lead the way & put up points for us to win.

With that being said, Shaq & Pinckney still played great games at their final game @ the Rock, they made plays in the backfield & was bringing it all game long, great send off for the 2 of them who gave their all for this U over these last 4 years. Gonna miss those boys next year, they are the definition of what being a True Cane is all about.

The DLine was also very active & disruptive this game despite some big run plays. Nesta, Hill, Garvin, Rousseau & the rest were getting after it all game long & were blowing up a lot of plays in the backfield.

Al Blades & DJ Ivey had good games, Blades got beat Deep once but what otherwise very good in coverage. I feel he's been our best cover Corner this season & is going to be lockdown CB next season imo. I applaud Ivey, he's bounced back after getting ate up a few games ago, he's been playing a lot smarter & reading in on his keys a lot better, you can see he's steadily growing & getting more confident in trusting the call & not overthinking it out there. Props to him.

Overall, I wanna say congratulations & a big Thank you to all the seniors, Shaquille Quarterman, Michael Pinckney, Romeo Finley, Pat Bethel, Robert Knowles, KJ Osborn, Trevon Hill, Chigozie Nnoruka & Jimmy Murphy. They all played their heart & souls out for Miami, through all the ups & downs those boys gave it their all, win, lose or draw, never once did they quit & never once did they not give their very best effort, that's all you can ask for.

Shaq, Pinckney, Rome, Pat Bethel & Robby Knowles are all examples of what being a Hurricane is all about, I'm proud of them & wish them very best at their next endeavors. They played a **** of game & couldn't have asked for a better send off, Go Canes!

Great write up as always. Anyone know why the coaches decided to burn Payton’s Redshirt? I saw him leading the way on the Cam run and a few other plays and the Herald had him playing one snap vs FSU last week. I thought the plan was for him to be a redshirt Freshman next year.
 
The stats are a little skewed. We shut it down on offense early in the 4th quarter. Could have scored a lot more. We let up on D also. Regardless it was dominant

The defense did not play well. They were gashed in the running game, gave up too many 3rd and long conversions, and were routinely beat deep. Louisville couldn’t get out of their own way with dumb penalties and some awful throws.
 
Great thread @Liberty City El, as usual. Look forward to reading every Sunday.

We all love the Offense and ST’s played well, yesterday. Kudos to them. We are seeing serious progress with those units.

However, why are fans giving this supposedly “good” Defense a pass for yesterday’s performance? Diaz continues to struggle with anyone with a pulse. Louisville, is ranked 28th in the nation in Total Offense. Our Defense gave up 27 points and 500 yards. This is a trend that continues to worry me. WR’s were wide open all game long. Our Defense looked lost and confused countless times. UNC and Louisville are the only schools we played who are in top 50 in Total Offense and they made us look like mierda on D. No excuse for that in year 4 under Diaz.
