May be mistaken, but I thought I heard it mentioned by a teammate in one of the media sessions. I remember being surprised at the specificity of the comment; as I'm sure they are coached to avoid discussing any injury in detail.

I hope that is also our coach's game plan.

That would be called the 1/Ted Roof defense, or inverted Bend But Don't Break. Also known as Don't Bend, Just Break.

That would be consistent with what Key is trying to instill in his team - to focus on the next game in front of you, one game at a time.

I think Norvell is at the point where, on a sinking ship, you start throwing everything overboard in hopes that you can delay the inevitable.

Based on NC State's defensive profile, we should be able to Run The Ball. That bodes well for the possibility that King can manage the game without Philo's arm. Remains to be seen though, and I think our coaches will play whoever helps us win.

I wonder if he's not putting up the totals this year because defenses are focusing on him after last year's performance. They may also be spreading the ball around more this year. We're on the same page here.

Edit to drive home your point some more. And Buster was probably reminded of that issue when he saw Philo limping off the field after one of his runs on Saturday. If our plays aren't already fairly obvious to the defenses we face, it will be when we have one QB who can't pass and another who...

Wanted to go ahead and start a thread on our next game, even though we are still basking in the glow of our Miami victory. Will we continue with the two-QB approach? I suspect we will as long as King is limited. Will NCSt be better prepared since they will have film on it? Expect the answer...

It's well-deserved, and it's nice to see the coverage. But I have to call out SI on lazy writing once again. It looks like they simply pasted a voice-to-text translation of the interview with zero editing for readability, including leaving in all the "uh"s. Do better, SI.

This. Once he tried and failed the first time, he more or less forced his later decisions. While I think his first "go for it" decision was premature, I can understand his mindset in the context of the way his team had played this season. You have a Heisman-candidate QB with a knack for...

The CFP committee may have a real mess to sort out with the SEC. As of now, there are four 2-loss SEC teams, and if uga beats Tenn next Saturday there could be 5 going into the final game of the season. The SEC Championship is equally cloudy. If Texas wins out as expected, they’ve punched their...

The 2015 Duke-Miami contest is up there with the worst. That was the game where Duke had essentially won the game with a score, and on the ensuing kickoff, Miami did the "lateral until we score" play until they got a TD. Several of the laterals were clearly forward passes but weren't called...

This is silly logic. “Let’s give ourselves bad field position so we can play more keep away.” The primary objective is to score more points than your opponent. Bobby Dodd would be shaking his head in bewilderment. Of the 3 drives we started after Singleton ran it to around the 15, 2 resulted in...

Someone needs to instruct Singleton to just take the touchback on kickoffs, but otherwise, just an awesome team win. Offense and Defense were not at full strength but they left it all on the field. Outcoached Miami on both sides of the ball. And the capper was formerly #2 uga getting throttled...

Is that how Miami only got a #4 ranking in the first CFP poll?

This is correct. For the ACC to miss out completely, it would take something like all it's currently ranked teams (Miami, SMU, Pitt, L'ville, Clemson) to lose most of their remaining games. I can't see that happening.

If SMU @ #13 and Miami @ #4 both win out in the regular season (likely at this point), I would not expect their rankings to change much. SMU's could even move up slightly since many of the top SEC teams still have to play each other, thus several will have an additional loss. But let's assume...

Appears we may disagree on the intentions of the ignorer. I don't need to be upset or offended, or even strongly disagree - maybe I just don't want to waste my time reading repetitive drivel.

While your viewpoints are both valid, there are other reasons to place a poster on ignore. This excerpt from the site rules provides a few: "Any member who is intentionally obnoxious, abusive, disruptive, repetitive, spammy, or "trolling" implied or not may be sent a warning..." I have chosen...
