Since when is the University of Miami football team the new David?
And since when has the Florida State football team become the new Goliath?
Miami is 7-0 and ranked #7 in the BCS standings.
FSU is 7-0 and ranked #3 in the BCS standings.
And that leads the Vegas odds-makers to make FSU a 21 point favorite over Miami in a ACC rivalry game between two teams with equal talent?
Twenty one points. Twenty one points? TWENTY ONE POINTS!
If Miami was 3-4 and unranked what would the point spread be?
Would it be 42, 45 or 51 points. Why even play the game?
For UM vs FSU? Are U serious? Are they even kidding me?
David is ready. He has been there before. He is not scared or intimidated.
Goliath is going down, and he is going down hard.
And when he does, trust me, he is not getting up anytime soon.

One glaring mistake. "Equal talent"...UM HAS talent, but there is a GLARING difference in talent. No one believes the Canes are this good. But hey whatever you all have to tell yourself to get hyped up.

Waiting for Usagainsttheworld to predict an overtime victory ... then we got this thing wrapped up.
Posted by: VfB_Cane | November 02, 2013 at 10:34 AM
Hoping for an upset however I don't think we quite have the talent yet to compete with the elite teams. Go Canes!
Posted by: Canesteeler | November 02, 2013 at 10:36 AM
Yes but you had to lie to get that talent from south florida... we know what happens to dishonest people.
Posted by: mi@mic@ne | November 02, 2013 at 10:36 AM
Its hard for your qb to make something positive out of such a negative culture
Posted by: mi@mic@ne | November 02, 2013 at 10:40 AM
Never quite understood this concept of "talent".
Come gameday, I'll take performance and passion over talent anyway.
Posted by: VfB_Cane | November 02, 2013 at 10:40 AM
Good job knocking your OC, mi@mic@ne
Posted by: MemphisNole | November 02, 2013 at 10:41 AM
it doesnt matter what he was like at FSWho but we know its an up and up at the U ..we always act like champions and play clean...check the history
Posted by: mi@mic@ne | November 02, 2013 at 10:43 AM
31-30 CANEZ VAULT IT

Talent is a key component of 'performance.' An inspired talented kid will beat an inspired untalented kid every time.

Saw a sign that says Golden is Fat...lol....that's ok.
Was going to make a nasty comment about the FSU level of intelligence and questionable character....but hey.....its a new me and will not stoop to such childish thoughts....their players cannot help it if some fans are immature.
We play like champs today, play our game do what we have to do to win....it can be done.
Posted by: VA Cane | November 02, 2013 at 11:15 AM
All about the U, baby!
Posted by: Jcane | November 02, 2013 at 11:20 AM
I dont understand what it is about fu and fswho.. they always use the same tactics ...i guess thats why the U has 5 titles ..its really 6 or 7 titles if we hadnt been cheated. Its the truth.
Posted by: mi@mic@ne | November 02, 2013 at 11:20 AM
Us old guys remember being cheated on the Gary run against ND.
Posted by: mi@mic@ne | November 02, 2013 at 11:23 AM
VA - LOL, Golden is fat? LMAO - it's the shirt he wears, wish he would get into some kind of polo shirt - it is kinda out of place on the side line, but that's his fashion choice
Posted by: CGNC | November 02, 2013 at 11:36 AM
Posted by: MemphisNole | November 02, 2013 at 10:27 AM
We are always like this on game days LOL. It has been a long while since both teams met as undefeateds, that in and of itself is special. We are finally climbing out of our lost decade, kinda like you had to do, minus the midget ponzi schemer antics.
Posted by: CGNC | November 02, 2013 at 11:38 AM
The Golden is fat poster made me laugh. He will have a fat ass bank account after this season.

or like Lombardi said
Hard work will beat talent when talent doesn't work hard
Posted by: CGNC | November 02, 2013 at 11:40 AM
Al Golden is fat is pretty damn funny. Looks like pudding on the sidelines. If this were in Miami, ya'll would be ripping Jimbo's appearance, I don't want to hear it.
Posted by: MemphisNole | November 02, 2013 at 11:47 AM
MemphisNole- just to be certain - are you a gator fan posing as a Nole fan hanging out on a Canes blog?
Posted by: CGNC | November 02, 2013 at 11:51 AM
Al might be wide but hes not playing..lol..the only wide we remember was the wide right ..lol
Posted by: mi@mic@ne | November 02, 2013 at 11:51 AM
CGNC - why would i be a gator fan? I frequent on competitors boards. No Noles or Canes in Memphis and I hate talking to gator fans.

Uh Ohhhhh! Look at CGNC demandin' some eye candy LMAO! You go CGNC! LMAO!
Posted by: CaneRock | November 02, 2013 at 11:57 AM
The Turd d before it was beat up was better than any d the Canes will face this year. So I would be surprised if it came down to a field goal.
Posted by: mi@mic@ne | November 02, 2013 at 11:59 AM
wouldnt
Posted by: mi@mic@ne | November 02, 2013 at 12:00 PM
MemphisNole - had to ask. The gator trolls come around now and again in various disguises LOL
CaneRock - you know how hot and humid it is in South Florida - that button-up long sleeve shirt is WAY out of place! Nothning wrong with eye candy either LOL.
Off to the gym!
GO CANES
Posted by: CGNC | November 02, 2013 at 12:08 PM
Game day baby! Lets go out there punch em in the mouth and light that motha on fire baby!!!! CANES
Posted by: fmcane | November 02, 2013 at 12:09 PM
If you think you beat up the Gators D, you're as disjointed as any fan out there.
Posted by: MemphisNole | November 02, 2013 at 12:14 PM
Posted by: MemphisNole | November 02, 2013 at 12:14 PM
Not what he meant. He meant we beat the gators before their D was riddled with injuries
Posted by: CGNC | November 02, 2013 at 12:18 PM
ah. i see. my apologies.
Posted by: MemphisNole | November 02, 2013 at 12:21 PM
So we played them last week...lol..we are the only team they have played ?????? typical Nole ...
Posted by: mi@mic@ne | November 02, 2013 at 12:21 PM
Played who last week? Only team? What? What's typical?
Posted by: MemphisNole | November 02, 2013 at 12:39 PM
It's nice to see a FSU fan come to this site and make common sense and bring something to the conversation as opposed to Gator fans who have nothing but garbage to say
Posted by: raizecane | November 02, 2013 at 12:52 PM
so the attire that i have worn the last 3 weeks have not been lucky so I am going thru all my stuff and find the perfect combination. Am i superstitious?? NAHHHH.... :-)
Posted by: raizecane | November 02, 2013 at 12:53 PM
The only comforting thought I have about this game tonight is if we beat everyone on our side of the division, we will get a second crack at FSU. I'd rather lose tonight and win at the ACCCG.....
Then again, that could be the Captn Morgan in me talking.....
Posted by: raizecane | November 02, 2013 at 12:56 PM
Hope we see DOUBLE D alot today.
Put Duke and Dallas in the backfield together. Make em def another threat!
FB is not used and not much of threat.
So go TWO backs set!
Posted by: LA3 | November 02, 2013 at 12:58 PM
I am pretty sure I have never, ever seen ESPN downplay an underdog's chances quite as much as they are today.
