That was Miami style defense.

So if we give up 600 yards to FAU next week and lose, do we still have a great defense?

That's 339 yards per game.

You can't look at these stats in a vacuum.

Lots of FBS teams played FCS teams for their first game of the season, yet in spite of yet, nobody allowed fewer passing yards than Miami this week.

I know you can't put to much emphasis on how they played BC, but with the combination of an excelling DL, a disciplined secondary and some nice open field tackling, I think we could have a potentially good defense on our hands.

Also something to keep in mind...

Defensive rank (yards per game)

2012: 120th (486 yds)
2013: 90th (426 yds)
2014: 14th (328 yds)

And now through only the first game I know, we're ranked 3rd. So while I wouldn't advise getting hyped up just yet, I would say to watch the games against FAU and Nebraska very intently.

How many games this week also took 10 minutes off the clock?

That last 10 minutes is when a div 2 team usually puts a drive together against 2-3rd stringers. An extra 80-100 yards could easily have been added.

What? The refs didn't surprise them at the end of the game by cutting 5 minutes off the last quarter. Everyone knew the deal. The 4th quarter was the last 10 minutes and we weren't giving away yards. We had backups in. Our backups are much better than they have been and certainly better than Bethune's starter. They couldn't block the front four or pick up a blitz and that didn't change with our 2nd and 3rd string in the game.

We had 2nd-3rd stringers in the game throughout the final 10 minutes.. A walk-on safety was playing. A walk-on corner was playing. James King was playing. Freshman defensive lineman were playing. Their final two drives went 7 plays for 8 yards. A team that put up 79 yards overall and eight yards against backups in the fourth had 80-100 yards in them if the game had 10 extra minutes? If we went to an all walk-on front 7 maybe.

Considering how slow Bethune was playing you're talking about at least one TD drive. No chance.

The defense definitely will be worse if we give up 600 yards to FAU.

You seem to be very well versed on Bethune. Did they play any backups in the 4th quarter against our backups, or were they playing starters the whole game?

Last time I looked, the W-L count was NOT based on any cherry picked stats but on the final score. Have those rules changed for the Idiots of Incompetence?

Here's last year's most vital stat: won 6, lost 7. Duh!

Then there's the "trending" bullschitt. Again, cherry picking let's one, who is more clever with bullschitt than coaching, pick their own nose for a positive trend.

Then there's the "easy target" escape. One more W than last year means the Master of Incompetence may have found redemption. SLURPERS would wet themselves if we somehow get to 7 wins (I'm sticking with 4 MAX).

We have yet to even play for the ACC title. We WALLOW IN MEDIOCRITY. This current program, it's enablers, and SLURPERS are simply a pathetic reflection of our long-ago glory days.

Go enjoy your ******* tailgates, SLURPERS. You deserve nothing better.

Try to think this Through...

You are throwing out "total yard" stats compared to other teams yet omitting the fact the game was only 3 and a third quarters.

Do you realize how irrelevant that makes a total yards stats?

I shot a 59 thur 14 holes yesterday... Only 3 PGA players shot a 59 this year, not saying I'm tiger woods, but maybe I m tiger woods.

But yeah I agree the defense will be better this year, that offense and OL though...
 
This is Miami style defense.

1-gap aggression.
Press coverage.
Gettin' after it.


I know it's only Bethune but when's the last time we held an opponent under 100 yards of total offense? That was complete domination.

Bull Sh*t..............Starters were 2 gapping like a MFer. They 1 gapped late, mostly with backups!

@ByTimReynolds: Fourth time in the last 20 years Miami held an opponent under 80 yards. Bethune had 79 tonight.

@ByTimReynolds: The 26 passing yards given up tonight is the best showing by Miami since Duke got a whopping 8 yards through the air in 2005.

Don't matter who we played that was very impressive

Thank you. That's all I'm saying.


Fvckers be like "it's Bethune Cookman" but forget that in recent history we would struggle to stop even lower tier teams like BC.

To add to that point Bethune hasn't been shut out in 90plus games dating back to 2006.

Unreal hahahahaha......this was with their backup QB and backup RB.

I'm starting to worry Brad Kaaya might be too good. It might cost us a few losses.

Golden M.O.

Beat up on obviously inferior teams and play it conservative against any team with a pulse.
