Other surprises: second loss for OK, UCF loss, AK of Miss State, Pitt loss and UNC close game vs. BC, SMU over Memphis and LSU bouncing back to crush Vandy.

Not surprising: Texas loss after close call last week, Bama blowout of A&M

Looking forward to next Saturday night at Clemson.

Ya. Miss St was such a let down. Makes me think the LSU loss was due to poor coaching (sticking with M2M rather than zone) OR LSU isn't really that good.

FSU at Notre Dame next Saturday. If we lose by less than 30 pts that's a win for me, sadly.

RickFLM4 · 10-10-2020, 07:18 PM

Alright Canes, let’s have a respectable showing tonight on upset Saturday.

Man we (LSU) suck! O is ok but our D is awful. Lost some key talent but new D coordinator put in an entirely new scheme and clearly the players are not with the program... Gonna be a long year!

It would be great if they took it out on the Gators next week.

We can hope... but I'm not optimistic.

RickFLM4 · 10-11-2020, 08:26 AM

Well that sucked. Not shocking to lose badly, but surprised a bit by how thoroughly dominated we were when we were in offense, as well as the number of dumb penalties. On to Pitt game next week.

In fine USC tradition, special teams save the day

Great picture of your son!!

UncleWede · 11-12-2020, 01:11 PM

So, they keep "postponing" games because players get la 'RONA.

IF they had the flu, and had to be left home, wouldn't they TEAMS still have to play?

RickFLM4 · 11-14-2020, 03:50 PM

Nice win on the road by the Canes today. Last years’ team would have lost today.

Well, I hate posting this up, but #55 was injured in Saturdays game, and will miss the remainder of the season.

I just read the news (elsewhere). I hope your son’s recovery goes well!

kscarrol · 11-16-2020, 08:10 PM

So sorry to hear this! Hopefully the surgery goes well and he is back quickly. At least he has another year of eligibility left and with the vaccine situation looking up, it will be a normal season next year.

RickFLM4 · 11-16-2020, 09:19 PM

dcpatters I am farther than you can imagine from being a Notre Dame fan, but never like seeing something like that happen. Best wishes for his surgery and recovery.

Thanks brother. I was born and raised in Miami. I recall being in the Orange Bowl cheering on the Canes. The furthest from being an ND fan too.

Then it's OK if I talk about ND losing the ACC championship, and USC gets the #4 spot in the CFB?

RickFLM4 · 11-17-2020, 10:49 AM

I think at this point, with the COVID cancellations and reschedules, we will be lucky to see a bowl season / CFP. Lots of games cancelled or postponed last weekend. Yesterday, Miami rescheduled our last 3 games. No games for us next 2 weeks.

Can the Trojans take the PAC12 title? Crazy thing is, so may match ups are getting postponed. It's going to get interesting how the season plays out.

But yes, I'm totally OK with what you wrote.
