ACC games this weekend
- Thread starter WoadBlue
- Start date
That wasn't Miami's fault. They had an int waved off for PI, two other PIs and 8 extra seconds AND a chance to set (and Dool scored with 6 seconds)
HOLY SHIT
So if the penalty was at the 25, 10 yards for block in the back, Miami would have an untimed down and a chance at a 52-yard field goal to send the game to overtime.
The referee just made an announcement to say the play is still under review?
Are you effing kidding me? What an inept bunch of hacks.

Holy shit. ACC refs actually got one right for a change.
There's going to be a riot in Derm, at least until they remember they have a really important exam to study for.

All 8 Dook students who were at the game gonna light a Roman candle?
Dook has handed the game to Miami all night, and then was going to luck out.
The only positives about Sirk are that he runs between the tackles like a bull and he refuses to give in.
Amazing how people see Cutcliffe as some great QB guru. Other than 2 Mannings dropping on his lap, he has done almost nothing in terms of signing and developing QBs who are 1st rate.
As for Miami and the kick off - a Cane was down once, rather clearly, at about the Miami 25, and there was at least 1 obvious block in the back. Refs have a tendency to miss all kinds of things on such returns. The Cal players vs. Stanford in 82 (?) were down a couple of times.
Look at the last minute of that game
-Miami int waved off for PI. Basically db jumped a slant, came up with the ball and refs called imterference. Terrible
-Miami called for PI on a pas that was uncatchable by any athlete ever
- Duke gets a 1st down at the two, clock keeps running and ref blows the play dead, allows Duke to set and puts 8 additional seconds on the clock because, according to the idiot, the clock should have stopped to move the chains to first and goal, where no chains actually exist
- Duke scores with 6 seconds left (and the ref gave them 8)

Saying "rather clearly" is an exaggeration, but after rewinding and watching in slow motion it did look like he was down before he lateralled the ball. Refs missed that one, even on the replay.
I'm not that confident. Let's just beat them straight up and remove any doubt. If we win the next two games then the last two will become irrelevant (for deciding the Coastal Champ) because of the tie-breaker rules.
There was a line judge less than 10 feet from the guy looking straight at him- the only review we got was the shot from behind.
Agreed. But at the same time we would need Hood to have a career night, and use better clock management to keep their offense off of the field.
Yeah it will probably be a rough night for our D. I think it would probably take a few big turnovers at the absolute perfect time but I still think we can beat them.
Watching the prevent defense from the past few games when we were up multiple scores with the game almost over, I'm pretty sure Chizik has the DB's just tackling the receivers unless they 100% can break up the play. If we can stop the big plays we could play with them, so I'm thinking it might not be a bad strategy on the deep balls for the entire game against them. 15 yards is still way better than 6 points. Unless our corners prove they can stick with those guys. I just don't see that happening though
That's what helped state stay in the game anyway. Clemson had a few terribly-timed fumbles.
