[QUOTE="wreckrod, post: 352078, member: 1935"] Watching the Miami vs. FSU game, some thoughts: Miami's offense: I'm not impressed with their O-line. I think we can get pressure with 4, and definitely some corner blitzes. Some stunts and twists should make a lot of hay. Their WR's are HUGE. They are TE's who can run. They had the dropsies against FSU, so they'll probably catch everything against us. Didn't see Miami throw it deep much. They like to throw short throws outside. Will need secondary and LBers to really be "on" and wrap up. Also, need our defense to recognize the TEs because they'll eat our lunch otherwise. QB had a bad day too, just not impressed by him. He doesn't look particularly elusive, though some of that may be FSU's D. I think if we can cover we can sack his brains out. As long as he doesn't have a perfect day, I think we can keep them under 21 points no problem. Miami's defense: They have some talent and athleticism. We will just have to see how it plays out but nobody on their D-line looks unblockable to me. If our O-line is healthy, I think we move the line of scrimmage against them. Lots of athleticism and speed from the linebackers. To take a phrase from iBeeballin, they "shoot their gun" REALLY early most of the time. I'll be interested to see what they do both in alignment and their first step against us. When they guess right, they tackle in the backfield, but more often they just get sucked up into the trash. Also saw a LOT of broken tackles because they launch and leave their feet. Not much to say about their DBs. Will be interesting to see how well they handle our big WRs and getting cut by our ABs. Final thoughts: We can't fumble. I hope Benson and Marshall have been working on keeping it high and tight. Really need them to take care of the ball. I hope the field is dry because a wet field is not in our best interest. Whether we like it or not we are a "cut back" team this year and it'll hurt us if the field is a mess. Defense needs the D-line to hold its own in the run game so the back 7 can focus on being in coverage. Not sure how much they'll even try to establish the run so much as use it as a mix up to the pass. Miami's line does that same fan thing as UNC, and we've shown that we can exploit that with Simmon's 1v1 on the single tackle. LBers, Mitchel and Alexander, have got to have a good game. Need them making the right first step. Everybody wrap up! Jackets win 38-20 [/QUOTE]
