UM accepts Independence Bowl bid vs. La. Tech; Diaz, James comment

[ShlomoShekelberg]

Is it possible to look good losing to La Tech?

It's one thing to get beat by a better team and lose. But acting like morons, clowns, or thugs while losing, on national television, is something entirely different. That's all I'm saying.

 

[RightSaidFred]

Well.... Shreveport is pretty fun.

 

[NorthEastCane]

I assumed we would be playing (and losing to) FAU.

We’re going to lose to La Tech. But that isn’t as embarrassing as losing to FAU. Since they’re not a local team.

Are you trying to make us feel better?

Skip Holtz? Is he Lou’s kid? OMG what a horror show!

An '86 ND grad--the year after Jimmy infamously ran up the score on his dad (the son wasn't actually on that team; he walked on in '86). You know he's going to be motivated. He will have Tech playing like it's the national championship. A horror show indeed!

 

[AK_Cane]

Yeah, they all excited on the crootin board, but I thinks it’s gonna be all fools gold come NSD.

They never learn with "silents"

When I think of LATech, I think of Winslow striking the Heisman pose after a TD in Shreveport. His only touchdown of the entire season as he never found the endzone again.

Hey, I'm fine with the matchup. At least we avoided the chance of losing to FAU or some other instate school.

Anyone anywhere. Amirite?

If we lose this one will Diaz be fired?

 

[Calvin]

Where have U been lately? Diaz has been playing WALK-ON's all season. And I'm not yapping about the special teams.

LoL!

 

[Calvin]

I'm guessing Sin City makes mighty La. Tech a HOME FIELD chalk Yikes. Say... - 4 opening point spread. hUh.

My question is, did we "accept"(as if we had plenty other options) this bowl game just so we can drop blaker baker off. Might as well have the whole defense help him move while we their!

 

[tcgrad1014]

If we lose this one will Diaz be fired?

Nope. Next season will be Manny's going away tour. Enjoy before he gets Taggarted for dismissal.

 

[Boarcane]

The line opened at 10 and within four minutes fell to 8 and lost another half point in the next four to settle in at 7.5....... smart money slammed their money on LT. We’re going to get body slammed. Even the money line is off at only +110. Keep the money line people away from LT and make the Miami bettors give a ton on the road.

 

[sdaly12]

You forgot Strawley.

oh, yeah they both gotta go

I hope they woodshed Diaz and Enos.

maybe but "FAKE JAMES " indicates our student-athletes will enjoy the experience hard to fathom how far we have fallen
when this is our bowl game and we are worried we will not be embarrassed

 

[MainLineCane]

At least its better than the Drillers Fracking Bowl in Minot North Dakota. I think.....

I'd prefer the legendary "Fracking Bowl for F*cked up teams" versus being dragged to Shreveport again.

Just how far down are you gonna be taking us Manny?? I guess losing to FIU wasn't enough.

Do you have any shame??

 

[CANEFAN83]

Hopefully if Diaz and miami start off really bad next year, he will get fired in mid-season. Can't be soon enough.

 

[South Side Chi Cane]

If we lose this one will Diaz be fired?

If it’s a blowout......maybe.

 

[ScubaCane]

We are realistically going to finish the season with losses to FIU, Duke and La Tech, you can't make this **** up.

 

[South Side Chi Cane]

**** Manny, **** Baker, **** Enos, **** Blake James, **** that one hoe, and **** the BOT. I’m back *******.

Oh Good Lord. Hide the women and the children.

 

[CANEFAN83]

If it’s a blowout......maybe.

Doubtful, UM's admin is too incompetent and content with being mediocre. Our program is literally a joke right now until further notice.
