And yet the Miami Sound Machine one won’t.
Great, now that dumbass Conga song just replaced the Allman Brothers in my head! Damn you YellowNumber5!!!

Do not feel bad. I have secretly infiltrated UC’s locker room with the Rock Lobster virus. Once that shitty song gets in their head it’s game over. Come Saturday, you’ll see. The whole damn world will see when we get the W.

I noticed Game Notes has added a list of prominent Miami alums. Maybe it’s been there a while but I just noticed it.
While it would be impossible to give every prominent Miamian their due, I would suggest we might consider adding Susan Perkins, Miss America 1978, multiple NBA Champion Ron Harper, Weeb, and at least one of our Stanley Cup winners. Another savvy add would be long-time Miami fan and Alumna Maria Cantwell - the current junior Senator from the State of Washington.
I am certain Miami is the only university in America with three SuperBowl winning coaches, a SuperBowl winning QB, an NBA Champion, a US President, a US Speaker of the House, a Stanley Cup Champion and a Miss America.
I met Susan Perkins when she was at Miami…nice person.
Also, surprised past P&G CEO John Smale wasn’t listed…when I attended Miami in the mid to late 70’s, there was a quite a bit of influence from P&G marketing strategies and organization that filtered thought the Miami business school.

Might not do it. You probably ought to inject Baby Shark and that catchy Jardiance jingle.
Smale was CEO of GM for three years in the early 90s, as well. The current CEO of Duke Energy is a Miami grad, too. She’s been there a while.

No, too obvious. The players likely grew up listening to that so they can block it out. None of them know the hell that is rock lobster. Years ago, I lived in an apartment in the ATL that backed up to an amphitheater. The B52’s played there and played that craptastic song as their grand finale. I was trying to sleep as I had a meeting early the next day and it went on for 45 minutes with Fred just dragging it out. “It wasn’t a rock. And it wasn’t a (fill in the blank with any non sequitor). Absolute hell. I almost had a nervous breakdown as that pitchy voice echoed off the walls of my fleabag abode. No, it’s gotta be Rock Lobster and in a way, I feel bad for fighting dirty with UC as they are still kids like our kids at the end of the day. It’s just time for a win.

Nice, clean all-white uniforms for the weekend. Photo shoot at Goggin was a good idea.

What happened to the concept of knee pads? Last year it seemed like JayWalk was the only one wearing shorts. Now it looks like about all the offense except linemen are wearing them.
Like white uniforms. sUCks be in al BLACK?

3rd down is huge issue, as CM likes to try pick up chunk (martin) yards…which tends or inherently puts us in 3rd and longs, and/or we are so predictable on the short yardage run up middle.
Anyway, if show some new stuff and really put a plan together to win, I think we can compete…but would be a nail-bitter win (something like 24-23, as said above)…but I’m a bit doubtful that our play calling will not be extremely Sweatervesty and/or we will have trouble with their lines/speed.

Gotta create turnovers and have a little luck as well…but yes, need to shake up game plan a bit w quick passes, screens, use of tight end, and play action on first down (and be successful!) If we want to compete.
And then, throw some deep balls!
P.S. now, do I have any confidence that we will see Chuck revamp his normal game plan…no I don’t (but one can only hope!)

I have no confidence we will win. Chuck does his normal being in awe vs playing to win

Chuck needs the equivalent of horse blinders so he won’t be distracted or “awed” and can focus on winning. This is like our OSU/Mich equivalent and can drastically change the tide of a season. Must win this.

He needs to let the Rock Lobster virus do its thing. Also needs to screw with them a bit and line up Aveon and Brett together. And if he really wants to mess with them, throw out a package or two with a 3qb set since Henry can absolutely sling it. I don’t even know if that’s legal as most of my coaching knowledge came from Tecmo Bowl.
See for yourself…it’s like the next Disney Star Wars spin-off:

Must use the force Brett/Gage…
Next Disney Star Wars spinoff…thats a low blow…even for sUCks
There are no blows, low enough for sUCks.
