The Return of the U?
Somebody please pinch me!!! Where has that been for the past 2 seasons?? I don't care how die hard of a Canes fan you are, no one saw that coming. Let it be known that on September 20 2007, on a Thursday night the OB, the Canes decided to wake up and play some football, after 2 years of going through the motions. Personally I have not been this proud of a Miami team we rolled VT in 2005. Lets talk about Kyle Wright, who is the man in Miami right now by the way, completing 80% of his passes for 275 yards and two touchdowns, completing multiple passes on 3rd down and tossing missles down the field to wide open recievers. Did Kyle Wright finally decide to be more than a guy with potential?? Is he ready to be a difference maker?? I don't want to get too excited over one game, but the QB that I saw last night was not the QB who has struggled to stay composed against quality opponents over the years. The QB I saw last night was composed, comfortable and deadly accurate. Enough of Wright though, how about the offensive line giving Wright all day to pass and opening gaping holes for Baby J and Coop to run through. They deserve all the credit in the world for this win!! My final props go to the Hurricanes defense in a collective and dominating performance. That Canes defense looked like the dominating 2001 defense that destroyed everyone in their path. For a second there I thought I saw Ed Reed, Johnathan Vilma and Mike Rumph roaming the field, laying the smack down on a Texas A&M offense that had no answers. Interceptions, sacks, forced fumbles and punishing hits, it was enough to get me pumped up!! My only criticism is the turnovers, too many of them, on any other night they would have really hurt us, but other than that I was very impressed over all. It was good to see the OB almost full with orange and green clad Cane nation. I wish I could have been there, but unfortunately my curtain call in the OB will be the Duke game next week. Jobs don't always permit you to take off for football games, they're funny like that. Anyways, I owe this team an appology for calling them out last week, I honestly didn't think they would win this game, but I'm sure if they are honest with themselves most Cane fans didn't believe in this team either. So back to my initial question, Is this the return of the U?? Personally, I saw something different in the eyes of the Hurricanes last night, SWAGGER, that look like we can beat anybody, and I haven't seen that for a while. All I have seen over the past 2 seasons is Delusional Arrogance, but last night the Canes looked a whole lot like the Canes. Is the U back?? Until they revert back to Cokers boys, I'm going to say yeah the U is back!!! GO CANES!!!!
