Officially, definitively, 2 wins from Charlotte

[Number1CanesFan]

Yea we are saying the same thing. I can't see miami getting in the CFP with 2 losses.

I also have no expectations of beating SMU. Should be an over under on how many times Francisco gets abused by Brashard that game.

Yes, Kiko needs to sit. Lashlee is going to scheme Brashard against Kiko in the passing game and on edge runs.

 

[Lokest]

we aren't beating smu so it doesn't matter

 

[mavericksouth]

honestly we might even get in if we lose the ACC title game. we lost close to GT, if we lose close to SMU, - the committee has made it a point to try and not penalize teams for losing in their conference title games - and thus rewarding those that don't go to title games

You lose another game and Miami is going to the toilet bowl and nowhere else. Miami was seen as frauds before Georgia Tech. Lose again and you're done and the questions begin about Mario...

I know, I know. We’ll lose by 100 to Wake and Syracuse. I got it.

I’m only posting this because I’m seeing a ton of people in threads who don’t understand this.

With Pitt’s loss to UVA tonight, Miami clinches a trip to Charlotte with wins against Wake and Syracuse. That’s it. No fuzzy tiebreakers, no rooting for other teams to lose, no hopes and prayers, no math.

It’s simple.

Win your next 2 games, you go to Charlotte. Win that, you get a bye and top 4 seed in the playoffs.

I’m not going to discuss scenarios, and listen to people say we’ll get beat by 60 blah blah blah. This is only a thread for people who want to see the team play in Charlotte and possibly win the ACC.

You have nothing else to play attention to other than Miami’s next 2 games. If they win those, Miami goes to Charlotte. No exceptions.

thank you

I just don’t get that people knew we were not going undefeated. Nobody thought this team was running the table, but when we do lose one everybody acts surprised. It wouldn’t matter if lost to Cal, VT, Cuse…we were probably the favourites in all of them.

It just happens that this was the week. Be ****ed, sure, but move on and know that 20 year olds don’t show up some times. The days of undefeated or bust are gone, for better or worse. Win and in.

 

[IamaCane4Life]

Wondering if Cam is the type of player that does not listen to coaches? How many times must you tell a QB, to not throw across his body, does not like to check down, and when he is scrambling the ball is always out and in danger! I know Dawson must repeat this every game, but….. anyways frustrated with a player who will be drafted in the 1st round.

 

[112_cane]

Even if SMU loses and us, them and Clemson all have 1 loss?

We're in no matter what if we win our final two games as the original post states

Two weeks to prepare. It's like Mario said. The GT loss has to hurt. The effort for 3 quarters was pathetic. No energy. Every game is a playoff game. That's the mentality and urgency that has to be there at the kickoff and it isn't. You can tell because you see a different team at the end of the game stepping up when stops have to be made. That points to culture still being an issue. Too many guys look like they're just happy collecting checks.

Guidry is not making enough personnel adjustments. I don't care if the young guys don't have experience. They are more talented, more athletic, and can make the plays that the veteran starters physically can't.

LB and DE play has been a liability. The starting DEs don't maintain an edge and get beat easily on outside runs. I love Bain, but he needs to move inside next year. He's nearly 280 now and is likely a DT in the NFL. We have so many fast and twitchy DEs that don't play. They are young, but they need playing time because they can erase so much of what GT and other teams are doing to our defense. The same goes for LB. Popo is injured, but Popo, Pruitt and Washington can play side to side and cover RBs and TEs in space.

It's time to put fear of youth aside. Get them in the game plan for WF and then Giidry will have options to match the personnel that offenses are throwing at him.

Bain LOOKS heavy and slow - much slower than last season.

We’re not making the playoffs with 2 losses. Now, had we went undefeated and lost in the ACC title game they would have put us in. Yesterday’s loss gave us no wiggle room. We have to win out to make the playoffs. Hopefully our guys use this loss as motivation and get dialed in after the bye.

 

[Hoyacane1620]

Idk i can't see it, we will find out tomorrow but I fully expect to be ranked around 12 tomorrow. Have been hearing negativity about how we win all year and then lose to a 5 win team. I would imagine it would also depend on how we look against wake and Syracuse.

we have to win the ACC to get a bid to the playoffs. The talk late yesterday was all about how the Canes "escaped" numerous other times.

I bet we drop outside the top 12. UGA, with two losses, will still remain 10 or better. Just my opinion...

 

[561Cane]

The Psych -ward of this place! LOL...Jumping off the cliff after yesterday's loss and for what....no way Pitt was going to go the rest of the way without a loss...have any of you seen them actually play??? Anyway, yep we lost to a one arm QB in King and played horribly. Hopefully it's a wakeup call as the ACC title is in sights!

Go Canes!!

 

[Speedrush]

Miami has the tiebreaker over Clemson? Due to higher ranking?

Don't think national ranking matters in ACC standings, but I think common opponent does and that should give us the edge over clemson.

Correct, since we beat Louisville and Clemson lost to Louisville

Literally just said this. LETS FINISH THIS.And go from there. Everyone’s low expectations was to win the ACC. We have that in front of us. A lot of mfer’s here are worried about the CFB playoff. Finish this out and that’s a givin. So y’all mopes STFU And get behind these kids. Autopsies are done after we’re dead, we are still alive and breathing . Go Canes

Good luck with not discussing other scenarios. There will be plenty of mindless banter from some who don’t know their *** from a hole in the ground.

 

[Problem2]

Need Damari Brown back for Wake

 

[WR Cane]

BAIN IS OVERWEIGHT
BRENT KEY IS MARIO’S DADDY
RHETT LASHLEE WILL RAPE US WITH OUR EX-PLAYERS
I WATCHED DAWSON LOOK AT CAM AND POINT AT HIS PLAY CARD AS IF TO SAY “WOULD YOU LIKE THIS PLAY?”

My JJ rant is over.

Our problem is these players are running the coaches instead of the opposite. Just like what’s wrong with half the homes in America where the kids run the parents. FREELANCING ON DEFENSE. 3rd and 18, C’MON.

RUN THE BALL, RUN THE BALL. Then the pass will open up when you draw the DB’s in closer.

 

[Hurracanes]

Miami is unofficially in the playoffs. Win or go home.

 

[DTP]

Gotta hope we finally got the wake up call. We can still win the conference and get a first round playoff bye.

Season ain’t done yet.

 

[Hurracanes]

i wonder how different our defense looks against wake. I would imagine significantly but one can only hope
