Duke Game: 12:00pm ABC

That's an insult to Manny Diaz honestly. He coaches circles around Norvell as a HC. Even in Manny's first year in 2019, the Miami team that lost to FIU and got shutout by LA Tech would crush this FSU team in Norvell's fifth year.

Disagree. Nothing from Manny’s tenure as a head coach at Miami suggests that he can “coach circles” around Norvell.

Manny and Norvell share some similarities.
- Both are good coordinators albeit on the opposite side of the ball.
- Both are mediocre head coaches with a penchant for poor culture.
- Neither can recruit worth ****.
- On any given day they can look like a genius or an absolute idiot.
- Both try too **** hard to be liked by players which ironically tends to backfire on them.
- Both are prone to losing the locker room when things go bad.

Prison Mike is FSU’s Manny Diaz.

I agree. Manny is worse though. At least Norvell won the conference. I hate Diaz with a passion. I'm still bitter over how Dmoney and other mods coddled him and banned me when I said it was better for the program in the long term if the team just collapsed and lost the rest of their games in the 2021 season to end this 7-6 mediocre merry go round that we were on with him and Blake James every season. I was right. I'll always despise that era of pu$$ification that plagued Miami football.

Let’s face it even if Duke won they would have put the game at the noon slot. The SEC wouldn’t want a quote end quote good game to go against OSU;PSU and get embarrassed in the ratings.
 
The conference is so stupid. Why would you have FSU/UNC stand-alone at 3:30, while Ville/Clemson and Pitt/SMU both play in the late time slot?

3 games matter. You have 3 time slots. Use all 3 for the 3 games that matter. This isn’t hard to figure out.

There was tons of those eras the past 20 years tbh

That’s the available spread right now. I agree, -20.5 seems steep and I wouldn’t bet us to cover 3 TDs with our defense in a conference game. Yes, we barely covered that against FSU, but Duke isn’t FSU.

Did you see the Duke - FSU game? Don’t let records fool you.

Had Duke won against SMU our game would probably have been the night game, once they lost we got kicked to noon
 
All I could do was laugh when I read this

UM/Duke Team Stats for the season:
- surprised to see their OL has performed so well after losing Barton
- Really good test for Cam given their pass defense and pressure ability
- they can’t run the ball so we have to generate pressure to make Maalik uncomfortable
- our offense is still a monster

They can’t run and their WRs ain’t nothing to be scared of and Murphy is very inconsistent. Should win by a few scores
