They’re both kind of good questions. Should we have had a 4-3 instead of a 4-2-5? Did we suck because we gave up 450 yards? For the first question, Miami averages about 295 yards through the air and about 210 on the ground. Even though I feel like they’re more dangerous through the air, that’s...

If they do, they’re in the wrong place. They’re scheduled in Chapel Hill tomorrow https://sportsbookwire.usatoday.com/2023/10/13/miami-at-north-carolina-odds-picks-and-predictions-2/

Assuming the ACC website is correct, we did better than most. Miami got 450 yards against TA&M, but scored 48 points in the process. Team G RUSH PASS PLAYS YDS AVG/P TD AVG/G 1 Miami 5 1055 1474 335 2529 7.5 23 505.8 2 North Carolina 5 871 1629 389 2500 6.4 21 500.0 3 Louisville 6...

I already have the skateboard 🛹 (I would like the Music ⚡️Band shirt, tho)

Is this thread longer than the BG thread? If so, do we talk more about winning than losing here?

Van Dyne was second in the country in QBR before he played us. He was around 94. Now, he’s behind Maye at second in the conference. Either an off day by Van Dyne, or great defense by us, or both

Since it’s Kelley Ford, my guess is that he takes the average power rank of his top 25 teams on the power rank, runs it against your schedule, and compares scores vs predicted scores.

This is an interesting stat—your team’s scoring margin vs. the average top 25 team against the same schedule. We’re mid—it’s a more favorable view than other views of our team. Full image:

I wouldn’t read too much into it, but if you’re in the upper right you’re doing well

What’s a top 10 recruiting class like? I’d like to take 2 or 3 in a row

UVA and BC have every reason to be close. Both are starved for wins. Syracuse may be playing for bowl eligibility (still). We need a [let’s win two games in a row first].gif

Adding imminent contact into the rule gets the ref into both “is this a slide” and “was there imminent contact”. That’s a lot of judgement calls

There are also what-if’s that put us up by 10 in the last two minutes. You don’t get to pick your what-if’s. I can what-if us to at least 5-1 this season

There's lots of talk about BC vs FSU. There's probably more to learn from watching BC vs UVA:

Don’t do that. It’s trolling

Bird trash talking stories: https://www.complex.com/sports/a/jose-martinez/larry-bird-coldest-trash-talking-stories I should give the Dennis Rodman story: Larry Bird was scared of no one. Not even Dennis Rodman. During his years with the Detroit Pistons, Rodman recalls a time when Bird made...

Miami might have been a poor rushing team on Saturday, but they looked capable. They’re #13 in the nation in rushing offense, and they’re ranked in the 30’s and 40’s in advanced rushing stats. Some of that is feasting on two weak teams. Miami only ran for 89 against Texas A&M, but that might...

We’re getting into some funkiness with transitive wins and transitive play. We couldn’t get a sack against BG, but we did against Miami, so BG’s line is better. We blocked Miami’s DLine better than we blocked BGs, so BG’s line is tougher. IMHO, you put Miami on the field with Bowling Green...
