I watched the GT @ Miami game tonight and that game made me feel better about my BYU prediction. FSU was a catch away from beating Miami and now FSU is an after thought. As Lee Corso would say "NOT SO FAST MY FRIEND!"
Why did Miami dominate Georgia Tech? The answer is very simple. Jacory Harris is getting all the press right now and rightfully so. He is looking really good, but true winning football is pounding the rock down your opponents throat and stopping the the rock from being pounded down yours.
UM had 39 rushing attempts
UM had 184 yards rushing
UM averaged 4.7 yards per carry
UM converted 61% of its third downs
Folks that is winning football.
Defensively Miami shot through the gaps quickly and did not over run the play. They were causing havoc in the GT Backfield disrupting the timing of the option.
Clemson pretty much stopped the GT Option after getting down by 24 points and Miami dominated them. Has the ACC learned how to deal with the GT Option? Time will tell.
