We are in need of someone to take over the maintenance of the MMB. Yosef has done it for a long time, and we are grateful for all he has done, but life happens and he no longer has the time to devote to its upkeep. If anyone here is interested in helping to keep the board running, please let me know via DM.

WE HAD ABSOLUTELY NO PROBLEM WITH THE SPEED OF THEIR OFFENSE! IN FACT THE TENN OFFENSE DID NOT SCORE A TD IN REGULATION.

The closest they could do is recover a fumble in the end zone -- and we shoulda had that one.

So, all those Tenn. fans can kiss my Apps! Excuses anyone?

Miami is in trouble!
wait, was that their defense that scored long bomb against duck? :roll:

Yeah. Or another way to put it, that was one of, maybe two, significant catches their all-American receiver had against our true freshman.

And it was still a well defended pass. Duck forced the all-american to make a play.

To be clear, my point was not to cast doubt on Duck's play in any way, he played fantastic for sure but that UT did have an offensive TD in regulation. I am a stickler for details.

As long as you don't count the 67-yard TD pass they completed in the 3rd quarter, this is true enough...

I stand corrected. Yes, they scored a TD on that bomb.

My real point in my post though was that, unlike last year, we had absolutely no problem with their up-tempo offense. Hence, we had no motivation to roll around and fake cramps, like a soccer player going for a red card and an Emmy. And thus, I was questioning the football intelligence of the Tennessee fans who booed during the injuries, and the gooberhead Vol fan who posted his "explanation" on our MMB.

Plain and simple, we outplayed Tenn. & shoulda won that game. Will App be in the top 25? Dunno, but we should be.

Has anyone else noticed that the Miami MMB posters are talking all kinds of trash about App? It must be a sign of respect.

Are we ready for big boy trash talking? I guess. But, I much prefer fans like we met at Montana who behave, cheer hard for their team, and can carry on a respectful dialogue without calling opposing fans names. Mostly, I am ready for some big boy football.

I would stay as far away as possible from a Miami message board. I have a feeling that most people who post on that barely finished high school. I would imagine that anyone who actually graduated from there would'nt be that childish. The U has more than its fair share of Walmart fans who've never stepped foot on campus.

I would have to agree with you. I just graduated from graduate school at Miami and no one really cares about the program in the city. No one goes to the games and most of the people in Miami are fsu or uf fans.

It sounds like Miami not only doesn't have Walmart fans, but they don't have any fans at all.

Agreed. That would explain their MMB.

The fan turnout at their games is really poor. They will bring a lot to the game in Boone because a lot of Miami folks like to travel to NC and move to NC

Oh boy! More Floridian drivers! Allow double the normal driving time to get anywhere. And, be sure your insurance is up to date.
