If we had won that A&M game, errybody round here woulda had they chest out thinking "WE BYKE". Other than a higher ranking beating that aTm game would have meant nothing, if we came out and **** the bed vs MTSU. Beating UNC (albeit a ****** UNC team) AFTER an embarrassing loss means more, IMO. It means that we can get to Clemson undefeated in conference.

Beating a Straight up garbage UNC team means nothing to me. Beating Clemson is the game to pound your chest if you Win.

Beating a Garbage UNC team doesn't equate to "Turning a Corner" to me...but Hey, that's just me. Beat Clemson, then we're talking...

He's talking about turning the corner" on the 2022 season! We lose this game, the season can go in the toilet. You're talking about "turning the corner" of national relevance. Two different things, bruh.

It kind of does though if you put it in the perspective of a team that just lost to MTSU. It takes us from about the 3rd worst team in the ACC to the 4th worst. It would mean we hit bottom hopefully and took a small step forward.

The problem is that turning point rarely comes in a coaches first season at a school. It’s going to be a bumpy ride this year even if we find a way to win Saturday.

There should be a big step forward next year though.

This. Thank you.

This fan base is so desperate to win again that it constantly goes back to moments in Canes history and tries to tie them to the present.

Great, when Miami got rolled by Syracuse and then upset UCLA in 1998—which was Butch Davis' FIFTH season at UM and his 43rd and 44th games as the Canes' head coach.

Game Five in the Mario Cristobal era isn't going to be some seismic shift for the program or corner-turning moment—and setting such a foolish expectation is how this fan base keeps getting ahead of itself, only to be viciously let down—but self-imposed false expectations.

MTSU served as a reminder that Miami is a ways from competing at a high level; 7-5 last year, 21-15 under Manny Diaz, 28-24 since Mark Richt's 10-0 start in 2017 (entering this season), while the Canes are on their third head coach in five years and sixth head coach in 17 seasons.

Let's just worry about ending a three-game losing streak against North Carolina and then prepping for a road trip to Virginia Tech next weekend, before turning this weekend into some program-defining moment.

Sorry....I don't look at beating UNC a so-called turning point. Especially a toilet water UNC team.

Helps when receivers get open, run good routes, catch balls thrown by a quarterback whose accuracy has been trash this year, unless throwing to the other team.

$14-million or $14-billion—players still need to execute and do their job—which hasn't been the case four games in, game-plan aside.
