We will win 29-20 instead of what should be 41-14. The following will happen:

1) We will have a turnover deep in our own territory that gifts them 3 or 7;
2) We will have a horrendous defensive breakdown, leading to a big play, giving them a 5 play drive for 3 or 7;
3) On one drive, we will take ourselves out of a FG attempt either by penalty or turnover;
4) On one drive, we will attempt to score a TD on 4th and goal, when we should have taken the FG:
5) On another drive, we will settle for the FG, despite having 1st and goal inside the 5. (#s 4 and 5 may come in reverse sequential order to the list).

Until I see a team that doesn't self-immolate, I won't believe we are capable of playing a clean game.

Technically, they are the real Miami. Their University was formed before Florida was even a state.

I would love for it to be 52-3 but 35-7 is fine.

I would say at least 3 scores in our favor with the game always comfortably in the bag. No injuries. 2nd and 3rd stringers in by the end of the 3rd quarter.

The question is…will you? I live in another state but I still try to make some games at the Rock. One thing I do not and will never do is publicly trash our team especially before the season as started. It absolutely dumb and uncalled for.

I have had season tickets for 14 consecutive years, have been to over 200 Canes games, and rarely miss a home game. When I do, I make sure a Canes fan has a ticket.

If you have a problem with my analysis, provide an alternate opinion. Your blind criticism isn't worth a food stamp.

Vegas thinks we’re 2 1/2 games better, the line is 18.
Maybe 24 points, so you’re right about there.

However, with the turnover of coaches and players, we’ll (hopefully) be better in November than we will be in September to get to that +3/+4.
So I have us winning by right around the 18 point spread.
