Why is it so easy to shut Miami down in 2nd half?

[Sonny Long]

In 3 of 4 losses, Miami was held to just 3 second half points.

Obviously, the opponents adjusted, but why are we failing to adjust to the opponent's adjustments.

Turnovers didn't cost us the game against fsu. Each team had three costly turnovers.

Why did we soften our defense in the second half. Fsu's first TD of the 2nd half was a gift. JW never faced any pressure. Even on the fluke deflection play, he had all day to throw. Why did we change from what we were doing in the first half?

Does everything have to go perfect for Folden to win a big game?

Thoughts?

Because Golden is a *****. Not that difficult. A ******* 3rd grader can see this.

We played 10 games have been outscored by a total of 8 points in the 2nd half ...

So opponents are avg less than a point more than us in the 2nd half....

We take our foot off the gas and go into safe mode whenever we have the lead. Even in the games that we end up winning.

Play not to lose. And not to win

Prime example: VT. 24-0 at the half. Final: 30-6.

Good coaches make adjustments at halftime. You do the math.

Al Golden has a failed track record of assuming the opposing teams coaches will just keep doing what isnt working in the 1st half, and keep doing it in the 2nd
