Turn it to MSU Auburn watch MSU play d. 2 TO's already lead to 2 scores. That place is rocking. I cannot help but think about Go Canes saying MSU coach Mullen and sweet sweating AlPa were the 2 hot coaches available when we fired Onion. Guess our choice was the cold one. Watch that MSU team play they swarm on O D ST and they are hitting punishing hustling aggressive. Mullen has this bunch olaying well,......like Phil Collins said " I missed again"

Stacy Coley equal Franco Harris get down or out butdo not get hit. Boy is scared, never the same after he got crushed vs the Ville. Can you say Puss cause I can.

oh thats rite we only play 3 quarters with this coaching staff

LMAO!
Posted by: WWIN | October 11, 2014 at 04:13 PM
Good, no drama win.
Offense looked explosive, Duke's run was unbelievable. We are also in for an incredible 3 1/2 more years with Kaaya under center.
Defense, again, couldn't get off the field on third down. But overall played fairly well, considering our quick strike offense helped Cincy have a whopping 15 possessions for the game.
Biggest game for the U in a long, long time coming up next Thursday, This is also, by far, the biggest one of Golden's coaching career.
Win and they have great momentum going into the stretch run.
Lose and once again the focus turns to his failures and away from al the positives this program has going for it.
Man I can't wait for that game!
Go Canes!!

So happy the Canes get 2 weeks during midterms.

PD4,
3 catches, 143 yards, 2 touchdowns. Get him the ball please.
Posted by: The Dude | October 11, 2014 at 03:50 PM
Does NOT work like that! We have to pass the ball around like the San Antonio Spurs! Haven't you learned anything from Golden??
Posted by: WWIN | October 11, 2014 at 04:17 PM
Good thing Duke didn't have to play ga tech at night!
Posted by: WWIN | October 11, 2014 at 04:29 PM
Only shot we have at ACCCG is to beat FSU.
Posted by: BEERicane | October 11, 2014 at 04:41 PM
ACCCG = Al "Can't Compete for Championships" Golden.
So let's enjoy today's win and hope there are two or three more to come this season.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Good one! LMAO HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Posted by: WWIN | October 11, 2014 at 04:59 PM
Exactly vfb_cane. Anyone who thinks that this team is going anywhere near the ACCCG is totaly delusional! This is the worst coached Miami team since the 70s. And as sad as it is to say and as unthinkable as I thought saying something like this would be four years ago but even Randy's teams were better coached then this, especially the defense and let's be clear here, randy was a terrible coach. So that just shows how bad Al and his buddy are. Depressing that this is what were stuck with and not to mention being stuck with that no balls little weakling of an AD Blake.
Posted by: Nick | October 11, 2014 at 05:02 PM
With Duke beating #22 GT 31-25 and moving to 5-1, we might have just picked up a win over a Top 25 team.
On the flip side, the loss to GT looks even worse now.
Posted by: VfB_Cane | October 11, 2014 at 05:05 PM
McCord should move up on the depth chart ahead of Howard and Elder with his INT for a TD. McCord was playing pretty deep in coverage and he is our new shut down corner in D-No's innovative scheme. Trust the process!

On a totally unrelated note, this has to be the longest that Miami has gone without a bye week in memory.
Posted by: TonyCane | October 11, 2014 at 05:17 PM
TC,
That 7-0 I cant even look at right now.

Ahead of Howard? Yes.
Ahead of Elder? You went too far off the deep end!
Posted by: WWIN | October 11, 2014 at 05:21 PM
Where did you read that No'D is gone at the end of the year Surfercane? Hearing those words GONE is the only light at the end of the tunnel I see for this team. Smfh

Posted by: TonyCane | October 11, 2014 at 05:15 PM
Second, which year was the worst then?

Don't F&@k with me like this. I'd gladly lose every game the rest of the season AND keep golden around if it meant that turd was flushed.
Posted by: BEERicane | October 11, 2014 at 05:28 PM
We'll Beericane then that just shows how bad of a position were in when our own head coach is so delusional that he would definitely fail any psych evaluation out there. So basically we have a nut case leading the program. That's just wonderful. So depressing!

Elder is playing behind McCord at CB, but our genius DC is moving Elder to a hybrid safety/Sam LB. Trust the process.

Even if that's true, UF has a proven track record of paying real money to extinguish dumpster fires.
