Will the team come out flat against Louisville?

[HurricaneAlex]

I hope the Canes totally dominate Louisville from the start just like they did against FSU

The fact Louisville is a decent opponent actually makes me feel better that we'll be ready. A perceived lesser opponent would worry me cuz the kids may relax a bit. If our defense and kicking game shows up like last week we should be fine.

 

[D_G87]

If we played FIU this week I’d be worried. LVille is playing well and it being SR Day. I’d expect us to be ready.

So yes, something will give or break either team this Saturn afternoon. hUh.

I don’t know why they keep scheduling these games on Saturn. My antenna doesn’t pick up any of the Saturn stations.

 

[streetja]

Completely reasonable question. We do not show up for games where we're the favorite.

The defense with Manny more involved looks to be consistent and not a cause for worry. It's the offense that needs to show consistency. By A. continuing to get solid OL play and B. continue operating mainly out of the shotgun.

Would be sickening for Enos to come out with the CMU game plan and just try to run down UL's throats.

 

[fraggle]

They had an open week to prepare, so we better be ready.

We turning the corner, brother.

im not sold yet. lets see how we finish the season

 

[Cribby]

This has all the ingredients of a flat performance. We’ll see if things are different.

 

[JD08]

They beat Pitt and came out strong against the Noles. Hopefully the corner has been turned and we start to look better every week.

 

[bdcane4eva]

classic canes is to come out sloppy, flat, undisciplined and lose...its just who we have been.
would love to see something different and unexpected....

 

[Boarcane]

I’ll let you know five minutes into the game

 

[Cribby]

I’ll let you know five minutes into the game

I’ll let them know in four minutes , consider yourself roasted.

 

[miamifan007]

Let's hope we don't come out flat.

Attendance should be 50-55k.

As long as Enos doesn't shove his head back up his own *** & continues to run the offense primarily out of the Gun & utilize more RPO out of the Pistol, I think the Offense can move the ball on LVille's weak Defense.

Louisville is ranked 101st in Total Defense, 106th in Pass Defense (89th in Pass Defense efficiency), 60th in teams sacks with just 18 on the season, 68th in TFL's & 87th in Run Defense.

They gave up 423yds (230yds rushing) Notre Dame, 522yds (382yds passing) vs FSU, 563yds vs Boston College, 668yds (423yds passing/245 rushing) vs Wake Forest, 551yds (298yds rushing) vs Clemson & 311yds vs UVA.

Simply put, they're BAAAAAAD on Defense, if Enos cant manufacture yards & points on this awful Defense we got a serious problem. This might actually be the worst Defense we've faced all year.

On Offense, their best playmaker is my jit Tutu Atwell, he's their best WR & they get him the ball in various ways. Javian Hawkins is a good RB as well, Dez Fitzpatrick is a good WR too, I would match him up with Blades all game because I think he's a bad matchup for Ivey.

They have a good Offense & Satterfield is a good coach, he's gonna throw the kitchen sink at Manny/Baker, our Defense needs to play smart discipline football in order to slow them down, don't get too cute with exotic Blitz because LVille's QB Micale Cunningham will run the ball a lot. They're going to try to use their speed on Offense & go with the Quick passing attack, Defense needs to force turnovers & get off the field on 3rd downs.

We can definitely beat Louisville if we get an early lead & apply pressure on them, if we play sluggish & don't put up points & allow them to hang around all game long we'll be in danger.

IMO our Offense has the advantage because their Defense is trash, so Jarren & the boys better come out on fire pushing the ball down the field. Louisville doesn't rush the passer well at all so Jarren should have time to throw.

Motivation has been an issue. This is a major test for the culture and successful eradication of the Disease.

Homecoming

2 straight conference road wins
Still alive in the Coastal
Still alive for a Tier 1 Bowl

Controlled enthusiasm...

 

[PCBcanefan]

if a blow out win against your rival, at their home and also got their coach fired don’t get the boys fired up, nothing will. We roll.
Miami makes me feel like the scene from dumb and dumber.

 

[twes.305]

If we come out flat, then it will be an indication that UM is still the old UM, Manny Diaz and the staff are not the answern and the FSU is ******

No, because I will be in attendance. I won't let this happen

 

[loeTed92]

I’m not sure about our offense. I rewatched the game and Jarren MUST hit these deep shots consistently going forward. This offense is terrible.

 

[Mico Jones]

Let down game plus Louisville is matchup problem for what we like to do.

classic trap
