Some thoughts from Whitlock Cabin (Miami-Texas A@M thoughts)...

- When Toney had that fumble near midfield with the game tied halfway through the 4th, it felt like Miami was going to lose didn't it? Like, 'here we go again'. But the defense bowed up and created a stop. Corey Heatherman has been an absolute Godsend for Miami.
One thing I've noticed is that a little adversity that used to change momentum doesn't seem to have the same effect any more. We don't give up at all.
 
That was a masterpiece on defense. An all-timer.

A&M has a really good offense. I’ve seen dozens of games at ND Stadium (maybe around 100) and A&M this year was one of the most dynamic offenses I’ve seen. Concepcion and Craver are absolute burners. Reed can obviously run so well and he can sling it when he has good protection.

We did a great job of limiting them—never would’ve predicted we’d hold them to 3 points.

The way our DL gets pressure with 4 and the way they get off blocks to completely shut down the run is a sight to behold.

The defense seemed like it was on the field a ton and it was remarkable to me how they not only didn’t wear down, but seemed to get stronger as the game went on.

I am reminded that Jimmy Johnson said you’ll know Miami is back when their defense “can get there with four.”
 
The moment felt too big for Dawson today. Felt like he was trying to show everyone how much of an innovator he is and ended up doing way too much. These teams are way too talented and disciplined for all that cute ****.
Let's hope he learns from this and gets his act together by NYE because we have enough talent to get it done against OSU but we have to come correct.
