I read on Socials that Ward "dominated" us in the first half. Reasoning, he had 190 yards and 3 TD passes.

Yet... it was a 3 pt game at half.

And Rocco had 180 yards and 2 TDs.

So 10 more yards and a TD is Dominant? 3pts is dominant?

Anything they can do to try to discredit ISU.
This has to be Ward's people putting money in these talking heads' hands right? Ward looked good, but it was their running game that was killing us, not Ward. If we could have slowed their running game down at all in the first half, I'm convinced we'd have had a 14 point lead at half time.

Mario is going to be hiring his 3rd DC as he enters his 4th season at Miami. Needs to work on his hiring skills.

It was an article from somewhere and the Miami fans were all over commenting the same.

I was listening to that also. I heard them say something about making a rule that the coaches should have to reveal what players will be available for the game. They want the rule because it will affect how the gamblers bet on games. I disagree. that would be like the dealer at the black jack table letting you know that the Kings and Queens are not available in the card deck.

If the degenerates want to gamble then they should have to take the risk of not knowing who's available. Ridiculous coaches are being forced to to give in the degenerates.
