00:00
for the top games. Duke versus Miami. We've seen Miami rally in the second half of a number
00:09
of games this year. Funny enough, actually, we saw them pull off a lot of fourth quarter
00:12
magic versus Louisville, who was in full control and almost pulled off a victory over Miami,
00:17
who is now currently about to pull off a victory over Clemson. I mentioned all of that rich
00:21
because Duke seemed to be in almost complete control of majority of this game until Miami
00:26
did what they always do. They remain calm, composed, and they pulled through the execution
00:30
at the end of the third quarter all the way through the fourth quarter. Cameron Ward with
00:34
another ridiculous performance, 400 passing yards, five touchdowns, and that five touchdowns
00:40
only came with one interception. The touchdown to interception ratio just continues to be
00:44
so spectacular for this guy. I mentioned the composure and his ability to lead his team
00:48
and keep their head in the game. Hence, not falling short but packing on the points, 53
00:53
to 31 with a victory over Duke. What did we make of this matchup and how does he just
00:58
keep intensifying the conversation of what he deserves at the end of this season more
01:02
than likely? Yeah, you're probably talking about the Heisman Trophy or hinting at the
01:07
Heisman Trophy. Couldn't agree more. You know, I think we have today, and it's November 2nd,
01:13
this is going to change dramatically as we go through November. November is when the
01:16
Heisman Trophy in any individual award is won. This is when voters are paying the most
01:21
attention. And Cam Ward just continues to be spectacular. He's getting it done in terms
01:26
of numbers. He's the leader of one of the remaining, and there are very few undefeated
01:31
teams left in the country. It's not a great Miami team. I don't think it's a national
01:37
championship caliber team. Those close calls to me are red flags. They're concerns. But
01:43
the fact that Cam Ward can always pull this team out of the fire, they're the cardiac
01:48
canes because of Cam Ward. And you're spot on, Casey. I mean, when he needed to turn
01:53
it up in the second half, that's exactly what he did. Those five touchdown passes for were
01:59
from midway through in the third quarter till the end of that game. So, you know, Miami's
02:03
defense let up a lot of big plays to Malik Murphy and Duke. Surprisingly, so defense
02:10
was kind of soft. But when they needed the offense, Cam Ward was there. His top target,
02:15
Xavier Restrepo, was there. So Miami continues to win, and it creates an interesting race
02:21
in the ACC because it looked like there were four contenders. Clemson was one they've lost
02:26
still in the mix, but they have a loss. Pitt had no ACC losses. They're going down hard
02:32
tonight to SMU 41 to 11 at this point. So right now the favorites are Miami and SMU,
02:38
which is very strange. I mean, that's not what we expected in terms of the ACC. But
02:44
Miami has been nothing if not exciting this season. Absolutely. The stars were not aligning
02:49
for what we're seeing now, but that's what makes college football so exciting, especially
02:53
November when we continue to see who's going to progress and how things are going to shake
02:57
out for some other teams that are obviously going to fall behind because you can only
03:00
have so many teams in the spotlight when it comes to bowl season and the national championship
03:03
conversation.
