The biggest problem facing Miami…

[NateDogg]

A perennial contradiction: The coach who demands accountability and discipline runs one of the least disciplined teams in college football in terms of penalties...

Something I have always wondered: how fine is the line between discipline and playing to/through the whistle etc?

 

[sstcane]

Miami had 15 penalties for over 200yds in the 1991 Cotton Bowl and smashed Texas 46-3......If you're good enough even the refs can't stop you!!!

 

[Empirical Cane]

I’m fine with the penalty yardage but would prefer it to be excessive celebration instead of false starts

VERY underrated porst here.

 

[edge]

Let’s be real. There were about 6 penalties on the starters. Two of those caused by simulating the snap count.

Looks to be largely an ACC problem with rare exceptions of UNC & UVA.

The procedural penalties are the the inexcusable ones. Please god fix that **** one year

 

[BigDikDaddyFromCincinnati]

This MF will shoot the next biccht up in here who complains about penalties.

 

[NJshoreCane]

With our opponents at 66 penalty yards per game we're +2 ypg.
Last year during the regular season we were at -30 ypg.

Progress.

Guess which conference has half of the bottom 10.

#goacc

Why are teams not making a bigger deal about the out of control ACC refs? Also Pitt was making mock calls and clapping at our Oline without being reprimanded by the refs .. Mario was losing his **** on the sidelines.

It’s no excuse we need to do better but every team is doing it to our Oline and it’s been called once.

I am ok with with it. It comes with being an aggressive physical team.

I am ok with it. Comes with being an aggressive and physical team. Saban's teams had penalty issues too.

 

[Hoyacane1620]

2/3 of the penalties are on the offensive line. Aggressive teams are always going to have penalties and you live with the occasional off sides or pass interference because guys got a little too aggressive but the fact that our line false starts three or four times a game when our head coach is just a de facto line coach is something they should be ashamed of

Just going to post this. I would guess the majority is on the OL.

Followed closely by unsportsmanlike conduct

…is Miami.

#95 is unacceptable. Get that cleaned up before Notre Dame.

Maybe we need to stop using the words “cleaned up” and face the fact the secondary stinks and has regressed

 

[Yoyo423]

Don't look at pass defense

 

[JBCanes-NC]

Choose violence

 

[CanesSkins26]

Penalty yards per game has never been a great indicator of anything. Alabama under Saban was pretty bad a lot of years.

It's more about when you get those penalties. The 30 yards of penalties against FSU on one drive was WAY different than the couple false starts we had against Pitt. That's the stuff you need to avoid. False start on 3rd and 1 is different than a false start on 1st and 10.

Those false starts and other procedural penalties are major issues against good teams. It’s one thing to convert 3 and 18 or 19 versus Pitt at home, but against good teams in the CFP those are drive killers. If we go into South Bend and start putting ourselves into 3rd and long situations because of self inflicted penalties it’s not going to go well for us, especially with this line’s issues in pass pro.

Check out the penalties per game for the 2001 team.

60 is not terrible. How many calls like the missed facemask on Miami against FSU has there been? Seems like one 15 yarder per game. I will a basketball example. You are playing zone defense and the opponent is playing full court man to man. Most of the time the more aggressive team will foul more.

Check out the penalties per game for the 2001 team.

The biggest problem is Miami fans that can't stop and enjoy the moment. They are stuck in 2020 thinking Diaz is at the helm and finding every possible thing to nitpick about. You can find more negative posts then positive. A real shame when you have the #1 team, two best players, best offense, best culture and best recruiting team in the land. But hey, let's just focus on how many yards the 3rd string defense gave up in the last game.

 

[CanesCommandCenter]

Now can you grade that based on the number of penalties by the 2nd&3rd team vs 1st? Maybe @CanesCommandCenter has penalties per player?

Yes, if you go to Stats > Snap counts, it shows each player penalties for the season!
