Pains me as well. 41-17 the U. I really wish ESPN etc had kept the talk about this game to a minimum. Being a trendy pick always makes me nervous.

In many ways, the pressure is on us not them. Sure, they don't want to lose to G5 school on the road but this is a huge opportunity for our program to show up on the big stage. There is a lot of attention being paid to this game, which is great. However, we have to meet those expectations. I believe we can but there is a lot of pressure to bear on this one game for us.

Goes without saying but we absolutely have to avoid the stupid personal fouls. We have a few guys who tend to get a little fired up and lose it at the wrong time. We can't overcome being 25 yards from a first down.

A late 4th quarter touchdown seals it for the win. Pandemonium ensues.

24-21. Black & Gold. Are we tearing down the goal posts after this win?

Head thinks it's basically a coin flip, so I'll go with heart. Turnovers make the difference.

We are up against two top 10's at noon so I would guess casual viewers will be minimal. Of course if we hang around many will tune in to see a potential upset.

I had a guy here at work take Miami and he spotted me two touchdowns just before we kicked off at UT. Now he wants to switch it to just the spread...I don't think so!

I say again. If you ain't picking us to win don't post a prediction!! Bad mojo! Why as an App fan would you even pick us to lose? I don't get it. We all know the deal. Just go with the flow and stick with us to win!!

I don't think Miami is ranked high enough or us low enough to warrant a storming of the field and goal post take down. I'd like for us to win, and make it look like we were always meant to win. A win against Miami especially after a close Tennessee showing would not make too much noise on the news outlets. Especially considering Miami isn't projected to do much, and have not played anyone.

Heck, I'm a Cane fan, and I'd take that bet. I think it's going to be close into second half and then whoever makes the least mistakes and is able to run better takes it. Obviously I'm hoping our o and d lines wear you down a little. Good luck.

Wise guys realize "they" are bringing their own refs and the "cartel" of the P5 and the networks protect their money flow. :twisted:
