Canes v. Duke

[Dwinstitles]

I'm totally fine with the defense. 6 points? Get outta here!

Everyone is fine with 6 points but there alarming weaknesses, if it was last year I would be confident but 11 point lead right now feels like a 3 point lead with the way they r playing

 

[JgDaCane]

Drive one down their throat for 7 & it's all over. Our D is TACKLING great

 

[WndyCityCane]

Go Canes!

 

[AdrianP]

Dukes time of possession is going to wear this defense out

Top is meaninglessness. Total plays counts. Anything over 75 by duke then we can start talking fatigue.

It's a 4 quarter game. The D has not allowed many points so far but they are allowing long, sustained drives which will wear them out. 11 points is not a comfortable lead against a team moving the ball well.

That's why we got to score on the opening drive here

The Duke D seemed to figure us out the 2nd quarter. People act like we have a 35 point lead. We scored 3 points in the 2nd quarter and the D was giving up huge chunks. I don't expect perfection, but I do expect not to have the same play successfully run against us 25 times.

It'd be different if we were just getting beat man to man straight up. But when it's a scheme issue it's extremely annoying and disconcerting. We are on game 3 and I'm sick of not seeing nickel used. Teams could just dink and dunk their way down the field

on 3 and long every time the qb just has to throw a quick post route its an easy first down every single time

A lot of you guys are okay with mediocre. Any team with a pulse is up 4 scores right now, get a clue. Manny is average at best and out secondary is filled with JAGS. I think 3 games is enough "adjustment" we see what it is now.

Agreed.

Since CMR has been here we've always adjusted and played better in the 2nd half. I expect the same here. Lots of positives from that 1st half

FSU?

Oh come on. Mark Walton runs a TD that's called back for a ridiculous penalty. Dalvin Cook does his thing, and Miami still scores the tying TD. Blocked PAT kick is just part of football.

Your point is? We still played worse in the sound half of that game.

Ok bud. I'm not going to argue with you. Not worth it. You can go pout in the corner about that game if you want.....

Pouting? Nah, I agree CMR is pretty good with his halftime adjustments but it's not always better. He called a pretty ****** second half against FSU.

Actually, I'm okay with 3-0.

Moran.

 

[DCane]

That was ugly. Not a good decision there.

 

[smack99]

Wtf are you throwing at Malik?

 

[Jaromir Jagr]

That's just a stupid throw.

 

[ChosenOne]

Are we not gonna run the ball?

 

[GonzoCane]

oh christ

 

[Jaromir Jagr]

Are we not gonna run the ball?

We've tried.

 

[GonzoCane]

lateral

 

[Gsugradcanefan]

That was a STUPID decision/throw by Malik
