This is a discussion on Miami Returns Every Starter on Both OL & DL + QB Morris, RB Johnson within the Georgia Tech Football forums, part of the Georgia Tech Sports Message Boards category; Wow, Morris & Johnson are going to be very tough behind that OL. Their OL was pretty good last year ...
Wow, Morris & Johnson are going to be very tough behind that OL. Their OL was pretty good last year and they return every starter.
Good news is their DL wasn't very goood. They were young though, and Chickillo will be good. Dunno who all they might have recruited who can step in there.
Thought we'd be the Coastal favorites on paper but after seeing who all Miami returns and the fact that we play at their place I'm going to have say they'll be favored. Hopefully their D will suck and ours will be better than last year. Will be an interesting ball control battle.
I refered to this issue a week ago that Miami had an extermely young team last year that also had several starters injured at the time that they played us
That was the time to beat them
CPJ got out coached and lost the game both in regalar time and over time
This season Miami is at home against us, they are more experienced, and they are more talented
We're doomed.

If in pursuit of your destination, you plunge ahead, heedless of obstacles, and achieve nothing more than to sink in a swamp... What's the use of knowing True North?"

How did CPJ get out coached? Our defense allowed Miami to go 74 yards (FG), 82 yards (td), 88 yards (missed FG), and 91 yards in their last four possessions. Morris was a combined 18/30 236 yards and 1 TD on those drives. I would say Al Groh got out coached more than CPJ. All our offense had to do was not turn the ball over (which they didn't) and we should have won the game.
Complimented by 3 consecutive punts by the offense to finish out the game plus the epic collapse in OT. They both started sucking at the same time. Up until the mid 3rd qtr the D gave up 17 points (not terrible) PLUS gave the offense the ball back with TWO turnovers! The defense came unhinged at the same time the O stalled. Go look at the drive summary.
We've already been around this circle numerous times. Both the O and the D stunk in the 4th qtr.
