That it's better than yours?

Thanks for the effort, P.

I'm realizing there's only so much I can love or hate another team's highlights.

The defense looked good against Bama. Held them to 24 pts and under 375 yards total offense. Looked really good in 1st half.

The Ole Miss game on the other-hand is awful. They couldn't stop Ole Miss from doing whatever they wanted. Played too far off Treadwell/WRs and got nickle and dime'd to death. Ole Miss's QB also ran all over them. I can see what FullyEricht is saying in regards to gap integrity and ability to stop spread running teams.

I will say this - they are completely outmatched in both of those games. Miss St players aren't big at all, and quite frankly aren't that fast either. Ole Miss on the other-hand is loaded at the skill position and QB. Couple this with the fact that it's Diaz's first year back at Miss St and I'm leaning towards giving him the benefit of the doubt.

We will struggle against UNC/VT the most imo based off what I've seen.

I don't see a ton of crazy exotic blitzes as many have referred too. Seems to be much more conservative than his older days. Against Bama they got a lot of pressure with just 4 or 5. Against Ole Miss they ran right by RBs/QB on every play.


*My question to the experts here is... why can't Diaz just adjust his defense based upon the opponent and have his players play with a little more gap integrity against spread run teams and "run to daylight" against traditional offenses?

I have never seen someone so consumed and bitter about a DC that they cant help but **** on every single positive comment made about him. You remind me of my crazy ex gf, Might think about getting some help

Still hate his father.

I agree. His father is the biggest enemy of Miami football. We would still be playing in the OB if Manny Diaz hadn't fought to have the Marlins stadium built

Why should we hold him responsible for the actions of his father? That seems petty to me.
