I have no idea what game you saw....but you need some serious corrective glasses of some kind.
On 2 occassion, Miami stopped them on either 3rd down(roughing the passer) and then had them punt(roughing the kicker)...after that, they scored TDs on those possessions. Not to mention, the 'Canes inside the UVA 15 yard line and on 1st down...Jacory went back to pass, the ball just slips out of his hands....untouched by a defender...for a fumble to kill the drive.
No...the 'Canes did not play well. You are blinded by the final score and oblivious to what led to it.
dvrexpander said:I don't know what your talking about.. Miami played good ball and made a few mistakes but so did UVA. Now did UVA take advantage more of those mistakes YES they sure did! Which team played better....UVA of course they even won but you already know this. Miami is a hard team to play for anyone always has always will be. I think the main concern here is for them to win 2 games out of 4 they have left for a bowl game...but lookin at who they play including Boston College who may have a losing record bad right now could turn itself around with a awesome guy leading their defense.
The Big 12 on Friday invited West Virginia to join the league next season, giving the conference a replacement for Missouri and dealing another setback to the beleaguered Big East.
"The Big 12 Presidents and Chancellors are excited to welcome another outstanding institution to the Conference," said Oklahoma State University President Burns Hargis, the chairman of the Big 12 board of directors.
"The addition of West Virginia, while expanding the reach of the Big 12, brings an impressive institution with esteemed academics and a proud athletic tradition into the Conference. This is another step in building a strong foundation for the future of the Big 12."
It just occurred to me that with Missou joining the SEC, the Tigers of Missou will frequently have to play the Tigers of LSU. Should be confusing for the radio audience. Reminds me of BYU playing Houston in the Cougar Bowl.

Bragging rights for the best team to leave the conference this year.Must-see games this weekend:
12:00PM Missouri-Texas A&M, FX
3:30PM Oklahoma-Kansas State, ESPN
3:30PM Baylor-Oklahoma State, ABC
8:00PM Stanford-USC, ABC
Not a great weekend, except for the Big 12...down seek for the SEC with LSU and Alabama both off, preparing for next week's annual 'game of the century'...painful leaving off Georgia-Florida at the World's Largest Cocktail Party, but football-wise it just doesn't cut it...I calls 'em like I sees 'em!

More like they use "us" or "them". Radio announcers down South are none to impartial, at least on the Bulldog networkNah, most radio announcers around here use the name of the school. Shouldnt be an issue.
So now that the West Virginia move to the Big 12 is official, how much is it gonna cost West Virginia to get out of the Big East by next season. I'm guessing in the 15-18 million area.
dvrexpander said:Well the Big East was talking about increasing the amount to 10mill to exit but WVA may have gotten out before that took full effect and that would mean 5Million. I think the fans stand to lose more than anything considering the distances many will have to travel to see their team play and I've never seen WVA travel well even as close to teams they have been going to.
Yep, this will be the story now. The Big East is saying their 27 month notice is airtight and WV is adamant they are playing in the Big 12 next season, which means $$$$$ to get out early.
