This type of game needed to happen

[E1k]

Rutgers is now 5-0 and Vandy was inches away from defeating a top 10 Mizzou…their losses have all been very CLOSE. Literally like 5-6 plays away from being 5-0 themselves.

Exactly i said in a pre game thread their slow starts are what has killed them this year. They are better than 2-2

Plus every ranked team has flaws and close conference games just get wins and improve

I dont get how that team lost to Rutgers and vandy. they arent trash

they had to come back from big deficits in the second half. They weren't ahead in those games

Rutgers is a very good team. Their Big Ten schedule actually sets up nicely.

If Miami could have forced VT to turn it over on downs that last drive I would have felt 1000% percent better about this game. But my f***ing god. You cannot let what happened happen.

You can call a win a win but you're fooling yourselves if you think this was simply a close game.

Need to watch again but our OL got abused and the whole defense looked like ****

 

[MiamisMoperiestMopes]

everyone gets up for Miami. They will be back to their normal selves against their next opponent

Cis was mocking fsu fans for saying this

VT def not as bad as 2-3 and they gave their best effort tn. Vandy loss was bad but Rutgers is pretty good. pre season this line is probably Miami -3. it was ugly as **** but we found a way even with 3 turnovers. should have been 21-7 but we take the win and move on

I wouldn't the OL got abused in the second half. We had a 133 yards rushing. The defense on the other hand was over leveraged the whole ballgame.

And just beat Washington tonight

 

[Canestomp]

I'll take an ugly win over a loss 10 days of the week.

Kentucky was at least at home. Given the atmosphere at the stadium there is no reason the game should be close. None.

Also, Kentucky would thrash VT.

Stop it . Kentucky has never been good at football, it’s a basketball school. Enjoy the W, we have a lot of work to do though

Proud of the kids for not giving up.
Congratulations on a great win.

However, work to be done.

Defense seems soft and slow.

Penalties. Team isn’t disciplined.

Coaching is still suspect.

Positives.

Ward is amazing. Even with his mistakes, we win because of him

Amazing game. We won but the hype train needs to stop.

I am just gonna enjoy the win!

Go Canes!!

Is this our BC game from 2001

I don't think so this team has some flaws that team just had a bad day.

 

[CaneLife93]

I’ll take the dub. With no power and 2 kiddos (2yra and 4 months) to care for, I’m going to worry less about how we won and just be happy we did.

Not trying to be that guy but this is cope. VT is not the team you want a wake up call from. They lost to Vanderbilt of all teams.

We could have said the same thing after the GT loss last year but we got worse after that game. The type of wake up call game you want is Georgia's wake up call against a ranked Kentucky team not a team that might not make a bowl game.

What about Georgia's wake up calls against 5-7 South Carolina, 6-7 Auburn and 7-6 Georgia Tech last year? Stupid argument. I'm convinced ya'll don't actually watch any football outside of Miami if ya'll think Championship teams just go around blowing out every bad team they play

There’s no creativity in our running game. VT was running counters, pitches, sweeps - we run up the middle for nothing.

I dont get how that team lost to Rutgers and vandy. they arent trash

I think Rutgers might be pretty good.

 

[StPeteCane]

I dont get how that team lost to Rutgers and vandy. they arent trash

This. Their DL is pretty solid.

I dont get how that team lost to Rutgers and vandy. they arent trash

Watched VT play last week and they definitely didn't look anywhere close to what they played like tonight. They took advantage of our mistakes and executed...

You’re not really comparing us and our performance with Georgia, winner of the 2 of the three last 3 national championships?

One team has a recent history of overcoming and success. The other won 7 games last year.
