How do you explain all the late season swoons, why does it keep happening. My god, lost to a GT team that only had 99 yards passing (yet our DB's get blamed) and the two games before GT scored 13 and then 6 points beats us scoring 28 pathetic. Then Syracuse who lost to 3 and 9 Stanford whoops us. So what happened!

We had a great run but NEVER fixed our flaws that were obvious with so many close games. Thats on coaching and I assume complacency as we kept winning. If we played the gator at the end of the year we would've been skunked. They found their flaws and fixed them, we thought our Heisman candidate would carry us to the promised land but we landed with a thud. Our opponents found our flaws and took advantage which is how seasons go, but our staffs (past and present) never seems to get ahead of the game

All year I commented why aren't we using our depth, when will special teams deliver, where are all the sacks from this INCREDIBLE DL we acquired. Now we have those players who waited and watched are entering the portal, our fan base is disgusted and we play in another Toilet Bowl game. So much on the line and disgusting failure.

Yet I am optimistic about next year, I really want to see what Emory can do and see our legitimate recruits in action and I will miss those who leave. The two things I want to see is a real special teams coach and a new defensive coordinator and whomever he is allowed to bring in if he is given that freedom.

Are you aware that Mario Cristobal is our head coach?
 
All we had to do was run in the 2nd half Vs Cuse. They had no answer for our run game. We should've had 3 backs over 100 yds

How can anyone be optimistic about a next season? It’s difficult today to sell the the concept of team to these prima Donna’s when they have all about me attitudes. Mario is delusional to think he can recreate the great Miami teams again. Were these kids even alive when swagger was invented? The playmaker4 on the side line is like having their grandpa at the game.

Note to self, don't go on CIS on Christmas Eve!

Look, the Canes won 10 games this season in SPITE of perhaps the worst back 7 on D in the past 40+ years. If you thought the Canes were capable of coming out of this unscathed, I have some property to sell you at the North Pole. Personally, I enjoyed the season and hope they can get #11 on Saturday. Let's see what remains after the portal closes before jumping off the ledge as far as 2025 is concerned.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all, especially the mopes, they need it more than anyone else.
