… is me.
The only time I’ve been at a game and Miami won was at App State. I have noted that I did not buy my own ticket for that game, someone paid for me. Every other game has been a loss.
Here are the rest of the Sinister 6 of this L. They are bit players, however:
1. Personnel Acquisition and Management
This team is not much without Ward playing at a high level. Against a wholly one dimensional and predictable GT O, you could not contain or limit their motion, sweep, or reads. It was a lot like watching Bama-Vandy 2.0, but the knockoff version that goes direct to video and your kids get made fun of for owning. Bain and Baron do not influence the play, straight up. I’ve railed on 1 and 0 so much I’m getting job offers to write code. 7 and 21 could not be more out of position if you literally turned them around at the start of the play. These guys do not know how to do anything fundamental, smart, or sufficient. And that’s an indictment of personnel management and talent acquisition.
2. Every defensive player not named Simeon Barrow (or maybe OJ).
This game may have hinged on Barrow going out on the first drive. He came back late in the second half and had an immediate impact. Everyone else, maybe OJ aside, was merely a passive participant when GT had the ball.
3. Coordinators
Two bad poets. How elegant of Guidry to lose the game on a jet sweep converting a third down. Against a mediocre to poor GT D, Dawson could not find rhythm or flow, he never found, created, or came close to exploiting the talent advantage. It was wild to watch this electric offense look like it was bored and asleep. Not overmatched, not outschemed, just bored. The final “drive” was everything everywhere all at once: 2 minutes and two timeouts, just run a mostly normal drive and walk out of Bobby Dodd a winner.
4. Cam Ward
Baby doll, you’re better than this. You make the train go, the money flow, and the children sing. This was your worst game as a Cane, but the win was there. You blew it with the flair and ego we all love and adore. Never change, don’t apologize, but please dont repeat these mistakes again. The rest of the program isn’t good enough to overcome them.
5. OL
I don’t want to hear how deep this unit is ever again. Also never ask Markel Bell to get out and block on a screen again. He isn’t built for it.

I’m the bad guy. I knew better. I went to the game. It’s really all on me.
