Thoughts From the Bench Press: Notre Dame

skillydoo said:
A-fuggin-greed. I HATE ND. Some numb nuts studio guy today said Miamis problem last year was their O line was weak. They couldn't run the ball and that's why they didn't make the playoffs. Um okay. Way to do your homework.

No one else really understands

Like friends of mine that like other programs and have big rivals

I’m like you just don’t understand what Catholics vs Convicts does to a human

If they weren't around in the 80's to experience the unbelievable intensity of this rivalry then they won't get it. I think I got up for ND games more than any games. **** got crazy during those games. I recall standing on a bar top in my Miami boxers slinging beer after a big play? The hate for holtz was real. We always kinda respected Bowden. Never feared the gaytors. Good times.

As a kid in PA my neighbors were a Notre dame family and I ******* hated them. I was a little young for the rivalry part of it but old enough to realize their fans are trash

Beck is especially good at tossing overrated media hyped things into the dumpster, so I expect him to continue that trend with Notre Dame. Our season will go as far as QB1 takes us, and I expect him to play a great game

This line is better than the entire hype pod. You’re the man for this

245 days ago the once promising Miami Hurricane 2024 campaign came to an end in horrifying fashion. Backup QB Emory Williams made the Iowa State defensive line look like Mourning and Mutombo, the Twin Towers of Georgetown.

The 2024 season came in like a lion and went out like a wet fart at the bottom of a squat. We went for a PR and left with a bad case of the hemorrhoids.

Mario Cristobal punched a podium and talked about trajectory and then followed that up with:

It’s over now. Time to turn the page.

And what’s on the next page?

Notre ******* Dame.

Just the whisper of that name harkens back to the teams of old.

The history.

The rivalry.

The tension.

I hate Florida. I hate Florida State. But believe me when I tell you…I ******* HATE Notre Dame.

I hate their fans. I hate their campus. I hate their team. I hate their colors. I hate that slobbering crypt keeper Lou Holtz. Everything.

Q: How do you get 4 Notre Dame fans to sit on a stool?

A: Flip it upside down

**** Notre Dame as a staff, record label, and as a mother****in crew

View attachment 333613

I could say more but Notre Dame gets enough press. Consistently overrated and overhyped…I’m done.

This game is about us.

The pressure is on. We’ve spent the money. We’ve been patient. Bottom line is the returns need to start coming back from the investments and Mario knows this more than anyone. We were fed a lot of bull**** about rebuilding and culture but that’s over now. It’s BEEN time. No ******* excuses.

THIS is why I think Miami comes out swinging like the opening scene of Game of Thrones


Carson Beck: If Nina Hartley were a college quarterback she would be Carson Beck. Experience in every scenario known to man neither are ever intimidated staring down the barrel. He also spent the majority of his offseason fuccin. Beck is especially good at tossing overrated media hyped things into the dumpster, so I expect him to continue that trend with Notre Dame. Our season will go as far as QB1 takes us, and I expect him to play a great game

Reuben Bain: Rocky 2 has its moments. It’s not horrible but it didn’t have the magic of the original. This is what happened last year with Bain. Granted he was injured and the entire defense sucked, but Bain had a disappointing sophomore season. Much like Rocky I expect a big bounce back season. Bain dropped some weight and hit the S&C and he will play a key role in this one

Xavier Lucas/OJ tha Juiceman: No one has had a glow up like this since Sydney Sweeney grew them thangs. Our DB room went from one of the worst in the history of the program to potentially top tier almost overnight. It was so good that we even got sued. Even better, the group is talented but also young with multi year starters littered across the field. It’s young. It’s hungry. It’s ready for the lights.

Elijah Lofton: Joking aside, this needs to happen. Miami replaces its TOP 6 receiving yards leaders and while the room is talented, it’s unproven. Notre Dame will have a good secondary and I expect some struggles from the young wide outs. I expect Shannon Dawson to get creative and Lofton presents a mismatch issue. Look for him to score.


Verdict: There is nothing like a summer evening in Miami.

Nothing.

I don’t give a **** about your bum **** college towns that pack stadiums full of soft shouldered drunk students with nothing better to do on a Saturday night.

Miami is different.

The soft glow of the moon reflecting off of the water.

The shallow buzz from the neon humming in the background.

A melting pot of a city where people from all walks of life come to do live the American dream.

But something happens when the Miami Hurricanes are for real.

You can’t describe it with words…it’s an experience.

That shallow buzz of neon is replaced by something deeper.

It’s not just a sound…it’s a feeling.

It’s coming from the people.

It’s visceral.

It’s the electricity of the fans building from a place deeper than your bones.

The game creeps closer and closer and that buzz suddenly becomes palpable.

It’s no longer a background noise. You can now feel it in your feet.

The ground begins to vibrate with energy.

That energy builds with each moment passing by until kickoff.

That feeling rises from your feet and cascades over your body with a feeling of euphoria.

It’s the greatest drug on earth.

You can now hear the sounds of the ghosts of championships past. The Gameday calls. The crowd noise. The echos of legendary moments. The crowd screaming as Trajan Bandy crosses the goal line.

Miami is ready to add one more magical night to our storied history.

I want blood.

I want Notre Dame beaten before they get off of the ******* bus.

I want the whole world to be reminded why they’ll never know what it’s like to be a fan of the Miami Hurricanes like we do.

It truly is a U Thing. U wouldn’t understand.

Great post! Awesome analysis JHall!

I am cautiously optimistic! I am saying Miami 28, ND 24.

If miami needs to, do you think damari brown is capable of switching over to safety if we struggle there for whatever reason? Not implying anything just saying we are loaded at CB right now.

Go canes!

Tbh I am not very good at evaluating the secondary

Like who has the skills to switch back and forth. I will say I’m not very optimistic about him at DB but there’s no doubt he’s a big athletic kid. Not sure if he likes contact or not
