Watching Pitt offense.. they are doing what Long tried to do. I dont know if Long had a bad scheme so much as execution was extremely poor.

If the QB can hit a post route and the receivers can catch it you can move the ball on Miami. ND is suspect/bad at both. Pitt's D is doing a way better job of containing Rosier as well. Would be interesting to see what Wake Forest could do against Miami.

I am baffled as to how ND got blown out by Miami.

We believed the hype and were busy making commercials to #BeatMiami instead of putting in work.

Also, we came out flat and had little emotion.

Miami sucks.

Same reason we blew the doors off USC (which shouldnt have happened either): some nights you are the hammer, some nights you are the nail......the one predictable thing about CFB is the fact it is unpredictable.

They have a stingy d and a freshman QB picking them apart. Sad we didnt show up to play.

As far as Miami is concerned the only game that matters is the Clemson game next week.

Losing to a 4-7 team last game of the year might drop them too low to reenter the playoff should they beat Clemson.

Pretty much, I honestly still wonder how that first missed TD would have changed things, that game was a momentum storm...

Agree and Disagree.

Agree Miami still gets in by beating Clemson even if they lose today

Disagree they dont care about this one. A win today and close loss to Clemson gets them in most likely. A loss today makes Clemson a must win.

Lost the game because Wimbush stunk out the joint. Zero turnovers and we win that game.

THIS. Big stage in Miami at night for a team that was undefeated but still the underdog to a better ranked ND team. Go to get them early or you may never get them at all, which happened.

If Clemson tuns it up on the U and we win looking good on the road against Stanford can we jump them despite the script show?

I would certainly hope not.

That would be setting a horrible precedent if a team that won head to head by 5 FUCKING TOUCHDOWNS was left out for the team it emasculated that has the same record.

Didn't say they didn't care about the game. Obviously they do. Just saying the game that matters is Clemson provided Clemson beats S. Carolina. Winner of Miami-Clemson as one loss ACC champ will make the playoffs.

When ND is really good our opponents seem to take it up a notch. Look at Navy today. Lost to Houston 24-14. They looked nothing like the team we played last week.

So I know teams review film, scout upcoming opponents, and self scout, but do they post scout for lack of a better term? By that I mean watching film of teams we lost to who later lost. For example watching film on this game so we can see what Pitt did right against a team that was able to beat us so it doesn't happen again if we face a team that is similar to Miami.

I think its how to beat Miami. I am watching Long's gameplan right now. I am sure Long picked up things along the year but our execution was piss poor.

How many pick 6's did Brandon throw?

Oepverthrowing open receivers on your end if the field and adding fuel to the fire sunk the ship. These weren’t great defensive plays he was just missed guys by a mile. Think they all turned into points. Not saying Book was much better.
