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

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      I see both sides of the arguments, but compared to last year we're somehow at an upgrade over completely fried Dalton and wasn't even good in college Plummer. At least Pickett and Grier probably have some desire to make more money when Dalton was happy to just go through the motions and I will never understand why they even bothered with Plummer.

      After watching Dan for 3 yrs now, I think I understand his plan. It’s a simple plan that should work for the long run.     I saw some of this last yr. Dan wants a vet and a young player at each position. I really think we go OT if one they like there. Moton is aging, Icky will not be back until 27, if ever. We need to get ahead of the tackle problem

      You are just stressing too much about these particular positions. You want to upgrade from Bryce and I understand that but you aren’t going to really get that without getting into a bidding war for a QB2 potential QB1 like Willis. You could possibly trade for Mills or the backup for Chicago but they are still gambles and their teams will won’t decent picks.  Again the Eagles thought KP was a capable enough backup to trade for him once their backup was hurt and won a Super Bowl with him as QB2. The point is most teams aren’t rolling with some stud QB2/3 that is going to push even a bottom tier starter. They are better off the building their roster in other areas. The Rams are rolling with Bennett right now as QB2 for example.  The goal is winning absolutely. We overachieved last year even with stumbling into the playoffs. Another year and this staff needs to take the next step in building a team. Will Grier has little to no impact on that….
