Ifs And Buts

Nice comeback only to completely blow it in the end.

So, with Miami up 28-23 and on the 3rd and 4 at midfield when Mallory caught a pass for a gain of 3 … how the hell wasn’t he on the first down side of the sticks when he caught the pass? That’s fundamental football. Didn’t see the play just the description. If he gets the first down, it’s game over.

Meaningless game except for bragging rights. But, If this loss gets Manny and Blake fired, it was well worth it.

It was a little pick type play flare out…The route is designed behind LOS

Not a good call in that situation. Not a fan of horizontal passes in that situation. And Mallory is a big pussy besides. Has he ever run over anybody?

It was a puss call. Wasn’t Mallory’s fault at all. He nearly dragged the defenders for a first down.

And yet …

Stupid not to have the receiver beyond the sticks in that situation. That’s on Lashlee or TVD depending on what the scheme was.

Disgusting way to lose to your biggest rival.

If Miami can afford it, they should fire both Diaz and Blake and hire someone who knows what the F they are doing as AD. They won’t but these clowns have no clue. The recruiting class speaks volumes.

Temple dodged a bullet.

THE PUSS CALLS WERE THE TWO RUNNING PLAYS BEFORE THAT…

THAT CALL WAS TO GET IT OUT OF HIS HANDS QUICKLY TO AVOID JOHNSON MAKING A PLAY…

I probably can make a case to go for it on 4th and a long 1 there… You’re on their 46 I believe? You 2 timeouts, them 2…Try not to give them it back, you know your defense stinks

The goal line is a toss up. They were on the 2 or a little inside…Really a toss up there btw let them score and play defense.

Staff needs to recruit their ass off right now…Stewart is gone. Blissainthe and Kelly or this cycle is a couple corners and a complete bust everywhere else.

Definitely worth it if we knew the punt would go for a touchback. That was another troubling play.

Ya…obviously we don’t know that. 1-2 players need to be running to the goal line…We have 4 waiting for the ball to land at the 15.

Doesn’t matter we still woulda had Kinchens on an island and woulda got the same amount of yards…Maybe take a play or 2 longer

Such a gut wrencher. Fuck

“Trust the process”, they said. :grinning:

1&2 run plays
3rd pass short of 1st
The punt play…should have had them at one.

FSU kitchens and tae get burned for 60
UM doesn’t stop the clock with 2min plus with FSU at the 15-20.

UM literally couldn’t catch a pass for 3 plays then spikes with no time to spike.

4th and 14…We let a marginal thrower stand back and play pitch and catch. UNC flashbacks but at least they had Howell, albeit as an 18 year old.

Agree. This and the 3rd and 4 play call to Mallory were big misses. 3 TOs (in the first quarter?), down 17-0, this team came back great, but shame they didn’t close it out

I actually can live with the play call…Mallory is just a robot. Get the fuck upfield.

I mean I see some of your arguments and can think of other calls as well. I don’t love it, but didn’t think it was was end of the world. Shoulda went on 4th.

Our short yardage offense has been awful. See end of GT game on that 3rd and 1

Made a couple vs. FSU. Overall and even dating back couple seasons I hear you. But still…How can you trust this defense?

Agree. It’s pretty much pick your poison. He trusted Hedley to start them deep in their territory. Felt like half the coverage team fell for the returner’s fake. Should have easily had them within their 5yd line. No guarantee that makes a difference.

Ultimately should never have been in that situation going down like we did and giving them any type of hope
