Miami continued their dominance over the state of Florida as they matched up with their biggest rival this week in Florida State. The Seminoles were opening up their shiny new stadium revisions at night for the first time and they were honoring Lee Corso. Coming off a loss at Virginia, you knew the Seminoles would give their best shot. They did that, but how did it look on film? Find out with me at Upon Further Review.

#11 is trying to shuck the OL here but turning away gets him out...

Not even bothering with the 4th quarter is all you need to know about the game

Amazing job as always

I’m glad you brought up the Scott play. On the first quick watch I thought it was mesidor just because of how quick Scott was moving around

He’s had a few really good plays like this (Notre Dame)

Did it seem to you that the first drive maybe guys were just a bit caught up and probably had a good sideline talk to recalibrate? Seems like the first drive was an anomaly but also first scripted drives have always been pretty successful for Norvell teams
 
Put me in the boat with you complaining that Toney should have waited for his blockers.. guess I was wrong also. As always, thanks for the write up.

Just my opinion but I think preparing for an offense like Malzahn's is like preparing for the option. You can simulate the plays in practice all you want, but not at the speed and precision at which the opposing team runs their own system. But once the players adapt to the speed/tempo then that initial shock goes out the window and the domination ensues.

@Lance Roffers thank you as always. At some point, I would love a look at your end-of-game take(s).

I am sure it's a blend of poor execution/finishing and some overly conservative playcalls, but would like to learn more.

these breakdowns used to be loaded with "Donaldson gets whipped immediately" and "Scaife needs to look for work" etc. This line play is so refreshing!

So many great plays, but so much to improve upon, too.

Am I crazy to believe we are going to be more dominant in ACC play now that Beck and his receivers have had camp and several games to work on their timing, and we start folding in the younger playmakers?

I know most Miami teams over the past 2 decades and even in the Butch years would play down to lesser competition. But this team is built different, made of winners who want to ball out. Helps that a lot of talented guys in the 2/3-deep are battling for more snaps.

Great teams improve as the year goes on so we will see. The tape don’t lie. There are plenty of things to improve upon. It’s up to the kids to realize they haven’t won anything yet.
 
Would like your take on the target call on Day, on the punt. Also, FSU had a drive that started inside there 5, they were passing out of there end zone, and it looked like our defensive end had split the double team, and both of the o linemen held him. I thought it should have been hold + safety. Getting to the point, that no one understand what a hold is.
