I just want to nitpick this here because this wasn't that controversial, in my opinion it was pretty clear that the Miami player went down and the ball was well short of the first down marker. We got lucky they missed some field goals, but our kicking game sucked last year too, by that logic we should have beat Pitt and UVA. We won the Miami game fair and square, we out played and smarted them. That fake punt pass for a 50 yard TD was one of the most amazing plays I have seen since I started rooting for GT 11 years ago, Miami took us lightly and we showed them the error of their ways.
Yeah I don’t think Miami even complained about the call. It was clear and correct. Crazy ending, but not controversial.
Miami was probably the better team that day - but it wasn’t by a ton. We ran really well on them and were disruptive to their offense despite giving up some chunk plays. We’ve lost a lot of games over the years b/c of the kicking game so don’t feel bad at all winning like that.
