It helps us for UM to win, but it's not that big of a home field advantage for them at their place and I think GT is better. GT will control the clock and win the game 27-21.

I picked Miamah (in honor of Steve Owens' hometown, I spelled it phonetically, heh).

One of my fav features on ESPN, the weekly Bottom 10 (http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?page=bottom10091609), features a different Miami at the top this week.

Sorry, no Poke State at the coveted No. 5 spot... but another Big 12 claimed it. Guess who!

CK Sooner
9/17/2009, 12:55 PM
I have been looking forward to this game all week.

It will be close, but Miami will pull off the W.

GT for me....another reason


Miami, many say, is responsible for the death of option football, which I dearly love....I'd rather see 400 yds of rushing than 400 yards of passing..thats just me

So I would love nothing more than an option football team to take them down

i've heard that too. i think it's bunk. they just happen to have better athletes than most teams back then. option is still alive and well and making plays. if you had a team with say AD, runnels, murray,q or whomever with a number of qbs (pick one) and a large quick line, we could STILL run the rock for 300 on damn near anyone. every fake would have to be honored and it would still leave you one on one in most cases in the defensive backfield.

9/17/2009, 01:23 PM
Georgia Tech controls the clock and puts Miami out of their misery, albeit a slight comeback by the Canes late makes the score more respectable...

GT 26-21

well, no one team can be responsible for something like that...But you just here it brought up, probably during tonights telecast as well..

But I like the GT offense and hope it succeeds...

Georgia Techs first 3 TDs against Clemson

1) 90 yard run play, missed assignment

2) Clemson punt, TD return

3) Fake Field Goal TD

All Miami has to do is Jump on them early and force GT to pass.

either way, this is gonna be one hell of a game

lol

here is what Brucey has to say

Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets at Miami Hurricanes (7:30 p.m. ET Thursday, ESPN)

Last year, Tech ran all over Miami. The Canes' defense is more experienced and stronger now in the back seven. That will help. Then again, Tech should be much sharper running Paul Johnson's triple option in Year 2. Miami has speed on offense, though, which will give the Jackets fits. UM's D wasn't great against FSU in the opener, but it did do a decent job of containing the Seminoles on first-down runs, limiting them to three yards or less on 10 of 14 dashes in those situations. That run defense will be key in trying to make Tech QB Josh Nesbitt win the game with his arm. Look for Jacory Harris and Miami's offense to ride the home-field edge to a close win. The Canes are 13-2 on the Thursday Night Special games -- but of course, one of those two losses was last year's rout against Tech. The pick is Miami 34, Georgia Tech 31.



CFN

What will happen: For the third time in 10 days, the ACC gets a much-needed national spotlight to show off some of its better programs. Something just hasn’t felt right about Georgia Tech’s first two games. Yeah, it won them, but it’s also looked sloppy on both sides of the ball. It’ll catch up to the Jackets this week in Miami. The Hurricanes will jump out to a quick lead behind Harris, and hold on against an opponent not designed to thrive in a comeback mode.
CFN Prediction: Miami 31 … Georgia Tech 24

You know that is gonna give our D fits and our O is suspect right now! This does not sound like a good thing. I hope our O and line get it together this Saturday. At least get closer to getting it together so they can use the bye week to get better as well. I was really shocked at how our O played against BYU. Our D picked up where they left off.

Well our D-line will shake him up. I can not see him having this kind of success against our veteran D. I can not see the game but I am assuming he has a lot of time to throw. Would that be right?

Lets not forget Miami has a good tight end and we all know what a good tight end can do against a Sooner defense.

If BYU can throw all over the Sooner Defense I'm pretty sure Miami can.

However Harris throws a soft football. Lets be aggressive and run a few back

If Miami is physical and plays like this I can see OU losing the game.

OU hasn't played with much emotion since the tech game of last year.

OU just is missing something that the earlier Stoops teams had. Thats called an attitude. This Miami team plays with an attitude

It worked for them last season even to the extent of beating in-state rival UGA (of the mighty SEC :rolleyes: ) and getting that monkey off their back. I think it's a game by game deal ... the U obviously has success in defending the option.

The U is such a sit-com:

They play in a 2/3rds full stadium with a baseball infield named Land Shark, supposedly a beer, with a dwarfy lesbian school president in a conference that competes with the Big East for king of mediocrity.

GT had a better defensive team last year.

Miami's defense sure didn't look very dominant
against an average FSU team in their first game
because FSU had some semblance of balance.
In fact if the FSU's coaching staff hadn't mismanaged
the clock in the 4th quarterthe Canes would have
given up 40 and lost the game.

If a defense has decent talent, speed and
discipline it will shut down a one-deminsional
option team.

Sooners demise............ Yeah right even in 2005 we had a decent team just didn't have a confident QB until the end. This year we have to overcome injuries but the talent is there and the backup QB is better than the one in 2005. Now, if we allow Landry to scramble it will nice to see. Because if that is one of his strengths we should play it. Get it ready for next year the guy is good from what I have seen.

GT did have turnover at the DC level either before this season or the last season. Jon Tenuta went to ND and I'm not sure who took his place.

I didn't see the game as I was on my way back from Denver to Atlanta. I would love to see some scramble out of the QB position just because it would add another "option" to what has seemed to become a predictable offense. Additionally, unless the GT o-line is really bad the U looks like it can bring a pretty good pass rush.
