Well, now they are up by two TD's with Less than 3 minutes left, so he is likely very happy now. Probably the biggest win for Miami in several years.  Meanwhile the move to A&M for Jimbo Fisher isn't going very well.  

Biggest win since ND in 2017.

Said to my Gamecock buddies a couple years ago. I just don’t see why any ACC or SEC school schedules App St.  The risk outweighs the reward.   

Full stadium so they make more money, low-cost travel budget (when they play at ASU), and it counts towards victories required for a bowl invitation.

To give their teams a test that they should be able to win?

But it’s the risk reward of it.   ACC/SEC got plenty to test themselves with on their schedule.   Why waste a gimme game slot with a team that looks forwards to routinely upsetting big conference schools.  And if you beat them, you aren’t really rewarded for that on the schedule.

As Deac said, money

      Mnf uniform combo White uni. Black helmet & socks

      By strato · Posted

      I think those silver helmets look great. The logo is fairly primitive looking but I understand why it is used.  The dayglo type blue top/bottom, I think looks like a cartoon. IOW not good. White on white is a classic look, no issue. Black on black I can take but prefer black pants with a blue top. Or white pants with the blue top.  That is about as much fashion content as I am comfortable posting. Maybe go to E or Bravo for this stuff.

      Remember when the NFC South was the toughest division (circa 2002-2006 when every NFC Championship game featured one of the four of us?)

      How many Qbs can you name better than Bryce Young?

      By strato · Posted

      You are a fair point argument guy, but I disagree that Bryce got us out of that Miami hole. You know who Rico Dowdle is, right?  Just a small quibble.    IMO when I look at him and see his output in a typical game I imagine what he did that a replacement level guy wouldn’t or couldn’t have done.  And I have trouble seeing much difference.  So assuming they can’t replace him with someone’s backup, not everybody’s but there are guys sitting, assuming they can’t replace him for probably less money would potentially be an erroneous assumption.    But based more on his relationship with the team and the guys making the decisions, the question of will they? I tend to see them sticking with him.  I never wanted him at all. But after all the misery of the Bryce era so far, I don’t have a problem with waiting until the season is complete to decide. Bring it on, I can take it.  So I am not ranting that he needs to go, although I have certainly done that and can’t say he has changed my mind to this point.  He still could.  We’ll see.
