00:00There was no fight after the game from the Miami Hurricanes though up at the

00:08dome in Syracuse as they lose 42 to 38. Critical moment here, and I'm sure you'll

00:15agree, was I thought Cristobal kicking the field goal when they were down 42-35

00:22in a game that no one was stopping anybody. I would have let Cam Ward try to

00:26get you a touchdown there. I'm sure Syracuse would have scored anyway and

00:30probably won the game, but can we at least tie it and let Cam Ward tried to

00:36score? But either way, tell me what you think after we hear from Mario Bigchest

00:42who actually stood there after the game trying to sell you that Miami's resume

00:46was still good enough to make the playoff.

00:48Well you re-emphasize reality, you know, this team won 10 football games, you know,

00:52against some really good opponents, and this last game came all the way down to

00:57the wire, you know, our two losses, our one possession left and a touchdown, you

01:02know, that makes us one of the better teams in the country. We control

01:06what we can control, so we have to wait and see, but certainly this team has

01:11really worked hard and busted its butt to put its best foot forward.

01:16I wouldn't argue with him about those facts that they lost two nail biters, but

01:23it is what it is. They lost them. You lost, so I'll give him credit. I thought

01:29after two years he was horrible, and now I think he's got things under control in

01:35Coral Gables, and he understands they need to spend, you know, 15 to 20 million

01:41dollars to have a loaded football team every year, and they can do that at Miami

01:46because the kids that go to school there pay 80 grand a pop per year, so they

01:51have more money than God at Miami. They're one of the richest schools in

01:55the country, and they can buy football teams, and that's what they need to do,

02:00and I think he can actually coach them to 10 wins every year. I think they're a

02:0410-win factory if they just spend the money. They're just like Ohio State.

02:09I agree. I think that, and obviously he spent it right on the offense this year.

02:14Now he's not going to have Cam Ward next year, so he's going to have to go buy

02:17another quarterback, but he also needs to buy some guys on defense because I

02:22think that's what really rued the day for Miami this year was even the games

02:27they won, like the Cal game and the Louisville, like they gave up a billion

02:32points in those games, but Cam Ward was just so good that he was able to win the

02:37games on his own, scoring 50 points, so he needs to go buy some defensive

02:42players this year with all that Miami money, and then they'll be in better

02:46shape next year. That's for sure.
