Welcome!
We may have the equalizerā¦Chuck Martin, Mr. 500 and no OOC or Bowl winsā¦so youāll find similar pessimism hereā¦
That being said, Miami easily could have been or should have been an 8-4, 9-3 teamā¦a couple 1 point losses and should have finished Minnesota off.
We generally stop the run, but have been burned up the gut latelyā¦our defense is strong on the edge.
We are hoping to get a Bowl win and another winning season (only second in several years)ā¦two things that have avoided us. I could see the rare possibility that we roll if everything is clickingā¦that said, that rarely happens, so it should be a great game.
Welcome!
Looks like we might have a bit of a mirror match on our hands. Mediocre coach with a strong defense.
I know a lot of people on our board have mentioned Sorenson as being the go to receiver. Our defense has been boom or bust all season. We give up big plays, but also make big plays
Will be interesting to see how it plays out. Iāve seen yāall are favored by 3 so itās basically a wash. Littrell is also .500 at this point with no bowl wins and a bad record against winning teams so looks like it all comes out to who wants to suck the least
The duo of Sorenson and Hippenhammer (Penn State transfer coming on) are pretty tough to stop.
There is a funny, yet interesting parallel, side storyā¦who can get the āmonkeyā off the back!
It appears to me the actual name for the contest ought to be the Monkey Bowl.
Catchy!
A tribute to our sweet boy Harambeā¦gone but never forgotten
The Frisco Suck The Least Bowl
I like that.
The band is going (and Shakos)
My guess is that Miamiās attendance will be poor since this is Miamiās fan board and I only know of me, Bash and Yanks going
Miamiās website lists a football banquet and pregame event that fans can attend in Frisco- but it doesnt seem like there are bowl activities
Available tickets in section 105 (where I am sitting) looks a lot like when I bought almost a week ago
But weāre the āHomeā team, LOL!
Yeah I still donāt completely understand that. I live in Frisco about 5 minutes from the stadium and the majority of our alumni still reside in the DFW area. Doesnāt make any sense
Well hopefully a handful of band parents, some football parents and a lot of local DFW area alums will show up. We did the football banquet at the hotel in Mobile right before the Mardi Gras parade. It was lots of fun!
āwho wants to suck the leastā
this dude must be a closet MAC fanā¦i love it
I looked at the ticket website a few days ago. Based on a rough estimate of how many seats were still available in the Miami sections then, I think there will be around 200 Miami fans there. In addition to myself +1, Redsea +1 , JCook32, and YanksAlex, Armand Robinson and Daniel Raudabaugh will be there.
I was hoping to get down there but the wife surprised me with a āsurprise eventā in Portland, Maine the exact same day. Debated buying a ticket to support the department and to pretend Iām there in spirit.
Thatās atrocious! With 2,000 alumni living within an hour of the stadium!!! Thatās essentially you guys and the football team families. No wonder weāre always on the bubble when it comes to selection for any event. We did much better in Mobile and we donāt have any significant population of alums in that area. What the Hell is wrong with us! And whatās wrong with our alums in Texas?
Make sure to party with Raudabaugh
My estimate of 200 is from a couple of days ago. Iām sure come game day we will show 400 strong!!
Thatās a strong home team crowd on a cold Tuesday night!
Itās the day before Christmas Eve and weāre not the MAC champ, it doesnāt take much thought to realize thereās not much fan interest or convenience. If we made the Detroit bowl Iām sure weād have a good showing, but not a random game in December that didnāt exist a few weeks ago.
