What do you mean how so? Back to back weeks in ACC play the game has come down to a play late under review….that the masses all see as the review being handled wrong and in Miami’s favor to thus get the win. 

now you can argue refs get plays wrong all game.  They do.  But once it goes to review? That’s viewed differen.  There wasn’t the evidence to overturn that TD under review last week and that should have been targeting called this week. 

so yeah, if the call the majority of football fans think should of been made during review was…..Miami is 0-2

 

I'm confused.

The late review on a Hail Mary where it clearly wasn't a catch? As in the 'masses' agreed that 'yeah it probably wasn't a catch, but you it'd be funny if it was so let's get irate?'

As for the targeting call - I thought if a review took over 5 minutes to make the the call on the field should stand?

Make your mind up, love.

No one is irritate.  That’s what people say when they want to get off the real topic  Review is review.  You have to have the evidence to overturn it.  The masses agreed the undisputable evidence didn’t exist that was required vs VT. 

that was targeting.  Maybe you give them a pass for botching it if it wasn’t under review.  But you can’t not call it targeting under review.  Doesn’t matter the time they took. It was clear cut under review.  Targeting. 

which is why even during the game dealing ESPN was talking about these back to back late game reviews where the refs were getting it wrong.

You're not wrong but this is rich as hell coming from a Clemson fan. LOL

 

I’ve always conceded when Clemson got good they started getting calls.  At least you could argue they earned their way into that tier of team that gets them.  

In this new era, it sure looks like the powers that be a trying to create a good team In the ACC

The ACC has always protected the hell out of their best bets at getting a playoff team. I was thinking the expansion to 12 teams may lessen their perceived need to do that but I guess not.

Miami was nuts. Then after the targeting botch…..they ignore 2 OL down into the endzone on the final TD.  Not one but two illegal men downfield. 

Miami fans pretending what has been going on isn’t fishy is funny as hell.  

Miami through 2 games has proven they ain’t good enough for the ACC to be trying to help them out.  They have not played  a single good game yet.   ACC folks too desperate to create something.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

      I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
