theres basically nothing else for UM... our future is pretty much decided... usc and texas aint gonna lose, usc wit cal, ucla, and fresno state and iono who texas has, but no1 that will put up much of a fight... bama mite lose, they got some tough game, but even if they dont it doesnt matter cause they still wont get into the title game... miami wins out the next three, beats fsu for the acc title (we shouldnt have a problem with them this time, the game we played at the beggining of the season was horrible and since then weve stepped it up, our o-line stuffed vtech, and their dline is twice wat fsu's was) and plays in the orange bowl... nothing much we can do to stop that, except maybe get cocky and lose one of the three we got and vtech will take us in the acc coastal
i hate the fukin bcs system... playoffs and wed take the national championship mother fukr! (well, mayb not, but at least we would have a shot at it)

if miami plays fsu for the acc title, they would be playing jacksonville
You never know who will win a FSU/Miami game. Although FSU has had some struggles in the past few weeks, everyone should be healthy by the FLorida game, a week before the acc championship. Not only that, but remember the game is in Jax, pretty much a home game for Florida State. Although Miami will be favored (they have looked good in the past few games) it will be nice to watch. Remember, Miami still has to get to the championship game. You never know what can happen in college football.
ican't believe the canes lost last night,it seems that everytime i don't watch a canes game they lose-the only time in the last 4 years where i've watched the canes lose was the fsu game and the vt game.
i was there man... rode the whole way home in silence... was one of the single worst experiences of my life
the offense lost the game... the line was almost as bad as it was in the fsu game... i dont understand how they can destroy v tech and then get their asses kikd by fsu and g tech... but w/e seasons over... national champs next year
if usc had lost i wouldve have killed some1...

One word...overconfidencenimbyhater said:
USC barely escaped yesterday as well
This is a little off topic. But, UF just beat FSU 34 to 7. It was almost a shut out.
Just heard it today on Hank Goldberg's radio show..."The Orange Bowl to be torn down to build a new football and soccer only stadium for the U". They will not remodel the Orange Bowl but build a new one. It will be a 65,000 seat stadium. The Canes will play for the next two years at Dolphins Stadium. This deal does not involve the Marlins, it is only for the University of Miami.
I heard that too. If they do go through with it, I hope they maintain as much of the "ambiance" of the original Orange Bowl as possible and don't go for the antisepticness of a stadium like Dolphins Stadium. The seats should be right on top of the field. Hopefully since it will still be a college stadium luxuries like levels and levels of luxury suites and the big spaces between seats like you see at NFL caliber facilities will not be necessary. College games have the entertaining atmosphere they do precisely because they lack these luxuries.
Well Hank said that there is not much space to build a Dolphins Stadium style building at the Orange Bowl site so the new one will probably maintain the ambience of the old Orange Bowl. The U owns the land and after Wilma damaged the OB I guess it made more sense to build a new stadium from scratch than to keep upgrading the old one. Th cost will not be that much higher and most of the money will probably be private. I just hope the Marlins get off their A$$ and put up more money from their pockets towards a new stadium somewhere in Dade :bash:
Well, no more than attend the UM games they could probably play in Bayfront Park while constructing a new stadium. 
Yes, hopefully a parking garage remains in the plans. It'd be nice if they could continue attracting foreign soccer games to the new stadium.
ok how much do we need to pony up for this stadium?
unlike for the marlins,i wouldn't mind paying some money for DA U,to get a new stadium but i feel like if they build a stadium they should build it on campus,but they have no space,so i guess its not an option...although DA U has a ton of money and should be able to build its own stadium,they've always contributed to the community and i feel like we owe them something...and although the OB was the first place i ever saw a football game i think it was definatley time to get rid of it.

no fukin way they should tear down the orange bowl... its the little bit of history that we actually have in this city... its so old school, and although some find it ugly in its age and outdated, i and most of the people i know find it quite bad ass... i mean, if it costs the same to build a new one, why not fix up what little we have... and come on, its the freakin orange bowl man
and reducing capacity? wats wit that?

Yeah, you can forget about it... for now.
damn straight...
Besides, I think the Canes prefer the decrepit stadium, something to do with their thuggish personna.
what a crazy game today..........great game by the dolphins.atcually great 4th quarter...bad game for the dolphins
