  1. #GTvsMIA Postgame

    Well, in all fairness, Parkinson's will darken anyone's day as it did my father the last three years of his life. A great win by the Jackets. Different people will rank them differently, but I would think that this is the most improbable victory given the circumstances of any of the latter day...
  2. #GTvsMIA Postgame

    In a way, it kind of reminded me of what Doug Flutie did against Miami in completing that last second pass to upset a highly ranked Miami team.
  3. #GTvsMIA Postgame

    "...from the 7 Miami fans tonight." Was Hard Rock pretty empty? I could not get the game.
  4. #GTvsMIA Postgame

    It is funny how "that happens" to Miami seemingly every year when "Duh U is back" talk begins. Looking at the film of the last 30 seconds, it would appear that the Miami running back was stripped of the ball and the Miami secondary was asleep in true Cane fashion two plays in a row. King...
  5. #GTvsMIA Postgame

    My thoughts cannot be expressed while my mouth is full eating crow and my wife is laughing at me. Maybe later.
  6. #GTvsMIA Postgame

    "Now what'? Get better, continue to tackle better, take better angles like we did tonight. Create turnovers and take advantage of them. We still have Boston College, UNC, and UVA waiting in the wings.
  7. #GTvsMIA Postgame

    Back in the day, Dodd used to say that and opposing coaches would complain about Dodd's luck but Bear Bryant knew better and so does Mario Cristobal. A team driving the length of the field like Tech did with 26 seconds to go is not luck. It is character and not listening to naysayers (like...
  8. #GTvsMIA Postgame

    Au contraire, you are right we never get those breaks...until its time to ruin someone's sparkling undefeated season and then it just happens especially against Miami.
  9. #GTvsMIA Postgame

    Tackle people, block people and good things will follow. Funny about that.
  10. #GTvsMIA Postgame

    That is precisely what I was thinking that it was very similar to the "Miracle on Techwood" in 2015 but actually this one was more miraculous. Miami had twice as many yards and nearly double the first downs with a sizable advantage in time of possession but squandered every bit of it with...
  11. #GTvsMIA Postgame

    I would like a generous helping of salt with the crow I am about to eat with my wife ridiculing my lack of faith in the Jackets. I was going to share what the Miami fans said on Canesinsight but there were so many expletives that it was reduced to unintelligible gibberish. Suffice to say...
  12. Brent Key is not the answer

    But not, it would seem an "outstanding" quarterback. It would appear that Jimbo was right all along about him.
  13. On to Miami

    Reggie probably loved to play against Miami. They talk smack to him and he would give it right back like he was a running back or something. This was the game I was referencing earlier that a poster reminded me that I had the years wrong. The Miami line had no answers for the blitzing...
  14. On to Miami

    Bobongo, one of these days, that famous wit of yours will get you into some hot water. Still funny.
  15. On to Miami

    Maybe...once? /s/
  16. ACC Standings

    Not THAT Pepper. I think Coach Dodd in reading between the lines in his biography was more enamored of Pepper the coach than Pepper the player. Pepper had a way of getting on everyone's nerves as a player. Before an Orange Bowl game against Kansas, Pepper was missing field goals right and...
  17. Thacker out at DC, now Safeties coach

    Well, he gets a little longer leash than say Manny who suffered the ignominy of someone hiring a plane to circle Landshark with a banner proclaiming "Fire Manny". They even made fun of his speaking lisp. Mario was a much decorated offensive tackle from the glory days so he has more time...
  18. ACC Standings

    My cat Pepper did just last week with admittedly mixed results. She had him for a moment but he broke the tackle and scampered up a tree and engaged in some pretty nifty taunting with his tail going up and down while he was looking down at a frustrated Pepper. I told Pepper she needs to wrap up.
  19. Thacker out at DC, now Safeties coach

    I don't know that we are anything alike. Miami has had one top 20 recruiting class after another through multiple coaches since the early 2000s without a whole lot to show for it. Easily, the most underachieving program in the ACC with UNC hard on their heels. They are a talented bunch to be...
  20. Thacker out at DC, now Safeties coach

    That was my general thought pattern but I dare not voice it with my wife around. "Delusional" is the word that is often applied to describe Miami fans though I tend to think that unsavory is a more apt description of this fan base.
