Miami -7

[biggie]

It really seems that if we could find a way to win most of their fan base would be more shocked than Michigan’s was.

Agree with that. The only reason I'm thinking Miami wins is because they should be mad coming off the Alabama loss. Their team is known to quit so if we get an early lead and play more physical I would say there is a chance to walk away with a big win. They have a lot of talent so regardless it will be very tough. Their fans may be delusional but I respect the program and know they are very talented.

I’m not going to get sucked into another mindless circular argument with you. You know what I meant. The guys won’t be intimidated by the environment, the opponent, or the “U”.

I'm just saying don't assume because that happened before that this team will do it. Every year is completely different. I believe this team is the toughest we will face since the 2016 Miami game.

I do agree we won't be intimidated by them. That place won't be a sellout and we have definitely been in more hostile territory. With that said, I'll be shocked if we aren't facing an extremely mad Miami team who will not overlook us. If by some chance we win this game, I would bet they will want Manny fired on Sunday.

Are you forgetting about 2017 Georgia team, that made it to the national championship game and took Alabama to OT and lost on a crazy pass by Tua, or do you think this Miami team is better than they were? Just curious..

My reason for saying toughest is because I believe Miami is lightly more talented and now they are mad and want to make a statement at home. That UGA team was better but weren't coming off a humiliating loss. I believe UGA would have beat us by 40+ if they wanted.

With that said, had Miami beat Alabama or been a close game then I don't think they would be looking to make a statement and would be more ripe for the upset. I sure hope I'm over estimating Miami and we can get an early lead on them. The good news is that they appear to give up when you get an early lead on them so it could get interesting if we did go up by a couple scores.

What makes everyone so certain that they’re mad? It would be easy for 18/19 year olds to justify the loss since it was Alabama. They do have talent but that also subjects them to personal agendas more so than a team like App. I’m expecting to be in it in the fourth.

[AtlAppMan]

If Miami is so MAD now, do you guys think Miami was not "pumped up" for Alabama? A HUGE game they had on their wall since end of last season. A game they wanted more than anything to "make a statement" that they were back in the hunt for CFP. Do you think they were not motivated for that game at about as high of a level that they could achieve?

My point, they likely were ramped up for that game and gave it all they had and then came up WAY short. So if they are as good as some on this board say, "Best we have played since...." then why were they so far off last week. And in that case, it would be hard to put that much energy into two weeks in a row or deliver last week's energy again for lowly App State.

I am saying there is a bit of a hole in that logic.

I get you’ve backed yourself into a corner on this one so you gotta defend it. But that Georgia team and even the Penn State team would have been favored over this Miami team. This Miami team is very athletic and perhaps they just out athlete us to a win. But there is more to football games than being “mad”. They will come out hyped up and they and the crowd will expect a 40 point win. If we can weather that storm and settle into a possession game, then being mad is not going to catapult them to a 4 touchdown win. It’s gonna be execution and play calling. I’m not willing to say we win, I’m also not willing to say we get housed simply because they got housed last week. One could argue this game means more to us than it does to them. As most of their message board has already fixed their eyes on the Michigan state game next week. Maybe they are to us what Bama was to them, but I’m not so sure about that. And looking at 2016 is irrelevant to Saturday’s game

Thought we might do the white shirt and pants with black lid. Hope it is magical.

Manny Diaz has done exactly nothing to make me believe be can get his team rebound off an emotionalet down ala getting beat by Bama week 1. In fact just judging by his 2 seasons at the helm they are more likely to snowball in the wrong direction than to play with fire and determination. Like everyone else has said they have the Jimmy's and Joe's but to assume that they will be any more motivated to play us after a loss to Bama when there is no evidence to support that notion is a bold take.

I don’t care who is favored but more so care about the matchup. I said toughest for a reason and did mean that because I expect Miami to come out fired up to prove a point. I was hoping they beat Alabama or play them close because I think we could have been a trap game and now we are a revenge game for them. If we beat these guys I’ll be very impressed by it.

I just feel nervous after the outcome of last week for them. Before the game I think we all would have said the best chance is they are competitive with Alabama and overlook but after the embarrassment I don’t think they can afford to overlook us. I just don’t see that happening and feel like we lose by around 21 or so.

Hoping I’m wrong because this would be a huge win for us. It would be our first P5 win on the road, outside of Carolinas, since moving up and our first win over a ranked team since moving to FBS.

You are right and I hope he doesn’t get them up. They have talent and would be a huge win for our program if we pull this off. From a national standpoint this would be bigger than UNC and SC were, especially if Miami can win 8-9 games this year.

[Black Saturday]

UNC and USC were in the bottom half of their conferences and Miami has been predicted to be high as second in the ACC. Miami is better than than our 2019 opponents and we are better as well. Should be a great game with us somehow winning.
