Not sure if he's changed his pick but a couple weeks ago, Stanford Steve said he's WAY high on Miami, the are 1 of I think 2 teams he thinks that will make the playoff from somewhere off the grid (yes, I know #19 is not entirely off the grid, but we weren't the ACC favorite preseason), but he said he thinks we LOSE to Florida but run the table from there, win the ACC, and go 12-1 headed into the playoffs.

I don't even want to think about a scenario where we lose Saturday, but if the earth stopped spinning and it happened, I'd probably be OK with it by December if we really did win the next 12.

**** all that though, take souls in 48 hours.

The idea that if the game slows down Miami's in trouble is ridiculous. Miami beat Clemson and FSU last year grinding the game to a halt. That game style is Mario's MO.

The reality is Florida has to slow the game down to even have a chance. If they're able to do it Miami can adapt very easily. Florida cannot adapt to a high scoring game. That Kentucky game may be the blueprint for Mario.
 
It does feel like people are hedging here but if we win, everyone is going to be fellating Miami.

This is the funniest **** about this games discourse.

So the team that has the better run defense (UM) will suffer if the game is slowed down by a team that is without their #1 RB from last year and maybe their #1 RB this year?

Also, UM ran for 5.0 ypc. We were one of the best teams at yards before contact, with RBs that werent better than Damien Martinez. So if we have to run the ball more, that's not good for us? **** outta here

"oh Uf has big DT. That's their strength." **** man, I didn't know this was 1953 and you can only run the ball up the middle!

JD Pickell should proceed directly to the Pickle Slicer.

They must think Gattis and his run up the Centers Butt ( pause) every other play is still here…

The concern is if Florida needs to slow the game down to win and WE slow it down for them… All gas, no brakes…
