OK, what is the deal with Da U?

Miami typically quits when things aren't going their way. 3 straight primetime losses and a 4th game coming up is not when this particular team usually digs deep and turns things around.

We should play into that by not putting the ball on the ground 4-6 times, and we have a shot.
 
If you buy a ticket and find the fake tan fella with a with a big turnover chain around his neck, you can look him straight in the eye and you can tell him what a cheap, lying, no-good, rotten, four-flushing, low-life, snake-licking, dirt-eating, inbred, overstuffed, ignorant, blood-sucking, dawg-kissing, brainless, dickless, hopeless, heartless, fat-ass, bug-eyed, stiff-legged, spotty-lipped, worm-headed sack of monkey öööö he is! Hallelujah! Holy öööö! Where's the clear water bottle?
You've been on a wild Christmas Vacation kick here lately fam.
 
I hope the cool weather and the "nothing left to play for" quit factor work in our favor and offset the Richt horseshoe factor.

Miami seems to have some players, but the whole seems to be less than the sum of its parts. I don't know why Rozier isn't playing at QB - the freshman they've been playing has looked like butt (with occasional flashes of competence) from what I've seen. Is Rozier not clearly better than that deer-in-headlights freshman? Hopefully we can find a way to get some pressure and rattle him. Seems like if you make him uncomfortable, his accuracy drops. But, sad as it may be, I don't think we'll have as good a pass rush as Duke...

I watched Rozier play in one of their recent losses (either UVA or BC), and he didn't look a whole lot better. Still, I'm hoping you're right on your first point, because Miami (and Richt) has a tendency to break my heart.

This way of thinking suggests they ain't gonna beat VT and Pitt. [sad face]
 
Always, always, always play Miami late in the season, and especially on a cold night. We catch them early, we lose.
 
Last season’s (fluke) loss to Miami was probably the most pissed off I’ve been about Tech football in the last decade.

Hope our players feel the same way. Really want to win this one.
 
I've watched a lot of Da U games this year. They have a fantastic defense, loaded with NFL talent at all levels. Their issue, far and away, is a terrible offense, especially at QB. Rosier is terrible. They tried their freshman QB for a few games but he's just not ready. They have a couple of really good backs who will give us trouble.
 
I still think our turnover thing ought to be EXACTLY what the opponent's stupid turnover thing is. So for Miami, we'd have a big "U" chain. For UGAg we'd have those stupid shoulder pads. For UVA, you'd get a Zima when you get to the sideline

That would be hilarious. Especially if we made up a giant, puffy, fake foam version that looked like a GWAR costume prop. Make a new one for each game.
 
This should be an easy victory. Miami is borderline terrible and is sinking fast. As long as our predictable QB Option Keeper offense doesn't turn it over, we should win by 3-4 TDs. Only real asterisk is that CMR absolutely owns ol' CPJ so who knows?

Three point favorites within the friendly confines. Will be in the low 40's/upper 30's. This game is more about Woody and Diaz than Richt and CPJ.
