Shame on Mario

Agreed. He’s way too good for us to be hitting the panic button just because Mali is out.
I found it disrespectful they moved mali to his spot to throw a pass out there, when they give him nothing in flow of game.. Now Mali gets nicked up and the entire offense short circuits?! I never seen our offense look like that, idk what happened. WTF?!
 
The 2nd half play calls by was horrendous. Where is the Barkate targets, where’s the Upshaw targets. Not one attempt up field? We never even tried running the ball and allowed this offense to be in consecutive 3rd and longs.

This is our drive chart after going up 31-7. 4 punts and a missed FG. That’s unacceptable.

The closest they got the entire night was 11 points.

Ryan Day blew a 23-7 lead in the 4th quarter, and he has a national championship on his resume.
And choke artist also which you gonna believe, he was handed keys if he coached at Tulane a just for men beard paint loser, yeah I said it,
 
I keep seeing Mo and Chase at LB and think we look big and slow... but tackling should be solid.

Apparently not.

No doubt. 15 plays for 17 yards. Wild ****. Glad we got the dub. Let’s get better next week, get the bye week; and get healthy. Clemson is terrible. FSU is terrible. We should be 6-0 with Pitt rolling into town in a month. Let’s hope Lucas, Antoine, Fletcher, Mali, Mensah, Moten, and maybe Lyle are 100% and playing by then. We gotta get healthy.
 
Missing out on Seaton and the Pitt LB Biles who went to Texas were two huge portal misses for Mario and Co. Would have loved having Brockmeyer back this year too.
I remember last season a lot of guys around here wanted Brockmeyer after getting his **** pushed in, in a few games mid season. Funny how development works
 
We didn't get a first down for almost two quarters. This offense has to be more than just Mensah and Mali going hero ball. Felt like we got very 1D and as soon as dudes got nicked up Dawson collapsed his playcalling to one of three plays. Every facet of this gameplan tonight got exposed.

FG missed a FG.
Defense just looks like bottom tier in the ACC.
Offense looks like they are built around the connection between 2 guys and when one goes down and the connection is lost we are flying blind.

On the concern meter, I have the Canes at a 8/10. I really hope we don't waste a season with Mali like Guidry wasted a season with Ward. Feels like history repeating itself.

Defense is absolutely not bottom tier in the ACC. Come on. Let’s try to be real here. I know we’re all on tilt but try to be adults.

Rest of it in kinda agree with. Not 8/10 on the panic meter. This team is winning the ACC and making the playoffs.

You act like we didn't evaluate them properly.

They got paid millions in the portal by two teams with huge bankrolls.
