OK, who here knows about the "KISS" principle?
Keep It Simple Stupid! So, I'll keep this short and simple.
Strap up, boots on, lock and load, face paint, arms at the ready.
The time has come for your team to fight for it's life 'Canes fans!
Miami faces ACC rival Virginia Tech tonight on ESPN in what some, no make that many, have called a "must win game" for Al Golden and his Hurricane football team.
Win and the rest of the season has meaning.
Lose and the whole thing may go down the drain.
It IS now or never for UM tonight vs VT in Blacksburg.
Canespace Prediction: UM 41 - VT 27
Soup!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We got this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If this ends up a shutout, is that the first one?
Posted by: dj moonbat | October 23, 2014 at 10:50 PM
thanks everyone for the good wishes. Love all of my CANE brothers and sisters, from the lean years when I graduated from the U (1970) till now.
Next year I would love to go to a game with you central Fla CANES. I walk slowly, but give it MY best. Had a wonderful time a few years back with Mr. & Mrs. SOUP, 86 ETC. Love my CANES. Hope to stay in Fla Nov to May & home in Michigan from May till November.
I will be on the blog from now on. Miss some names I don't see. Especially, some of the girls. Loved tailgating with all of you.
I'm rambling on. Let's enjoy the victory, fellow CANES.

Golden and his coaches deserves some credit. This Canes team took a huge step forward tonight.

Stat of the night:
@Manny_Navarro: #Canes have run for 701 yards over their last 8 quarters. #Canes ran for 498 yards over last 5 games to end 2013 after Duke Johnson was hurt
Posted by: Go Canes | October 23, 2014 at 11:01 PM
A lot of my frustration with Al hasn't been only that we lost but how we lost. Tonight its not that we won but how we won... Dare I say CONVINCINGLY?

You asked, I explained. Maybe those reasons aren't good enough; they are, nonetheless, the reasons.
Posted by: dj moonbat | October 23, 2014 at 11:05 PM
DNo got scored on by 3rd string QB.
Posted by: BEERicane | October 23, 2014 at 11:05 PM

Good win, I liked the intensity we played with tonight. KEEP IT UP!
Posted by: CaneRock | October 23, 2014 at 11:11 PM
Now THAT'S what I'm talking about!!! I don't care how good/bad They are this year, it's VT. And we embarrassed em. On national TV! Great game!
Props to D'no... Credit where credits due. String a few more like that together and who knows!!
NICE!!!!!

I literally burst out laughing when I read this.
Good one Beer. That was the post of the night and a great way to end it.
Off to bed.
Great win!!! Go Canes!!!!

That was my pick before the season, 8-4.
Posted by: TonyCane | October 23, 2014 at 11:13 PM
If the D keeps playing like that, I can live with it. Better playcalling, better execution.
It's been a while since I've seen UM get after the ball like that.
Posted by: dj moonbat | October 23, 2014 at 11:14 PM
That may be the best road win in Al's career. Hostile environment, Kaaya is the real deal, OL was really good, defense was really good. I'm sacred Mark might keep his job.
Posted by: The Dude | October 23, 2014 at 11:15 PM
Golden is 16-7 his last 23 games. Wonder why that stat never gets posted here?
Posted by: Ohio_Cane | October 23, 2014 at 11:15 PM
The best played game under Golden. I know VT is garbage but I saw a lot of good things and know a good win when I see one. I HOPE this will translate against FSU next Saturday.
Posted by: CoCane | October 23, 2014 at 11:15 PM
If we can score on 50% of our possessions or better the rest of the season, no reason we can't finish 4-0 or 3-1. We only scored 6 points in the 2nd half, all the defense had to do was NOT self destruct. So screw all that TOP crap...SCORE!
