Another Big 12 opponent waits

Sitting at home watching the NFL as usual this Sunday and saw a little news flash come across the email. The Canes' trip to Texas A&M next Saturday will be a 3:30 p.m. kickoff instead of an 8 p.m. start.

I know this happened on Friday, but I wanted to get your reaction to the news that UM has agreed to play Nebraska in 2014 and 2015. Do you like it? Obviously, Miami and Nebraska haven't played of late like the national championship contenders they were in the past. My question is will Nebraska even be any good? The Cornhuskers have obviously dropped off since Tom Osborne left the program and seem to be just another Big 12 team these days. Not, that UM has done much either since the 2001 title game.

Still, my question is why has UM been so focused on playing Big 12 teams in the regular season? Since 2005, UM has scheduled games against Oklahoma for a home-and-away series (2007, 2009), Texas A&M (2007, 2008) and has Kansas State in (2011 and 2012). Now Nebraska? Miami does have a home-and-home with Ohio State in 2010 and 2011. But, can I formally request athletic director Kirby Hocutt to venture outside the Big 12? How about the Pac-10? Washington (2001) was the last Pac 10 team UM played in the regular season. How about a trip out to Southern Cal? Miami hasn't faced the Trojans since 1968.

Or, how about somebody other than Florida from the SEC? Miami played Tennessee in 2002 and 2003, but hasn't played anyone else from the SEC since it won at Arkansas in 1991. How about a home-and-home against Georgia (whom UM hasn't played since 1966) or Auburn (1984). LSU bombed the Canes 40-3 in the 2005 Peach Bowl. But how about a home-and-home with the Tigers, who last hosted UM in the regular season in 1988? I'm just saying.

Cant wait for Southern Cal to put a beat down on UF or any other over rated sec team it might play.
OU is better than any of the SEC teams too.

[myndraize]

The miami boards get more hits than any other; for being school who apparently sucks in all other eyes,you trolls continuely come to this site.I'm convinced your a CANE wannabe. why spend hours a day at site that is not your fan base.

[Steve B M.D.]

Canesrule is a pathetic loser. Makes him feel good to rub it in on a canes board when his team has one good year and the Canes have been down.
Clearly the Canes have deeply invaded his psyche with all their past successes. When the Gators fade post Tebow and the Canes dominate again he will run away and hide like the pathetic coward that he is. Go kick your dog or beat your boyfriend if you need to but spare us your pathetic utterances-they just show what a cretin you are.

"I know your bored and worried about the U taking over again.-TX Dork
Completely agree. DuhhU will be dominating the weakling ACC within 3 years. Scratch that. You'll continue to suck with that pansy O-line of yours. Just ask Hocutt.

"......and the Canes have been down." - cane fan
YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE BOTTOM YET You ARE down....not "been" down.
It's the data of a badly eroded program with a 4th choice coach playing in an empty fish warehouse in a weakling conference.

All you "U" hypocrites know that your coach is WAYY over his head but are too proud to admit it. Fire that guy. He's terrible. Or continue to blame Nix and youth and blah blah blah...YOur coach SUCKS! He was at the helm in the FORTY EIGHT TO NOTHING blowout in the LAST game in the storied Urine Bowl. Now you're homeless.

FREEFALL

[Cane360]

Canesrule,

I love it.

WAAAAAAA, we only have 2 National Titles.
WAAAAAAA, we paid 4 million for a shady coach to take us 9-4 with a Heisman winner.
WAAAAAAA, we only rushed for 89 yards with Rainey, Demps, and even Teblow.
WAAAAAAA, we are losing the series with Miami 26-28.
WAAAAAAA, we only nabbed 5 recruits from So Flo while Miami nabbed 22.
WAAAAAAA, we're going back to the Outback Bowl.
WAAAAAAA, 5 is still > 2 no matter how I flip it.
WAAAAAAA, 18 of our players were arrested.
WAAAAAAA, UTenn is going to beat us.
WAAAAAAA, the verdict is out on our offense.
WAAAAAAA, our Oline sucks.
WAAAAAAA, our D could barely stop an inexperienced offense that has only played one game together.
WAAAAAAA, I hope we don't see Miami is a bowl.

BRING IT!

[Cane360]

THE SEC:

UAB?
Western Kentucky?
Middle Tennessee?
Samford?
Rice?
North Texas?

No wonder SEC fans are delusional. Looky at who they play...interesting...no brainer...

[Jaime]

The SEC is overrated. they believe theirown hype. ESPN.com PAge 2 put out a list of teams who actually play REAL teams outside theri conference, and guess who was in the top 10? UM. Guess how many ACC teams were in the top 20? 8. Guess which was the first SEC teamat Number 19? So CArolina. The gators were 31 or something. SO was LSU. They use that B-S SEC excuse to rationalize the fact that they dont play anyone. Sure the top SEC teams have been good the last 2 years judging by two NCs, but the rest- get schooled by their own sec blah blah. UF kept overhyping Hawaii this year, and guess what. Hawaii score more on UF than they did this weekend and still had 45 scored on them!

[Cane360]

Oregon State 47

Hawaii 7

Does that mean Oregon State can hang with UF? LMAO!!!

[BRING BACK KEHOE !!!!]

Your "A" game got spanked by UF's "C" game.

Crack the top 25 and then talk smack. Oh wait, nevermind, you haven't sniffed the top 25 in almost 2 years. But you're back now right? RIGHT? Your coach is quickly making you not only losers but the laughing stock of the ACC

Good luck with that guy. HE SUCKS.

[ponce]

Oscar will pull something together for us, on that we can be sure, if for no other reason than fear.

Canesrule posting during school hours!

THE TRUANT OFFICER HAS BEEN NOTIFIED!

[Sarasota 'Cane]

Florida won the their first title in 1996!

BOWDEN CHEATED, WE CHOKED AT DOAKE. WE WANT A DO-OVER!

[ponce]

Even more delusional thinking:

Seriously, with Bruce Johnson, DVD, Chavez apparently ballin', and BH coming on board, and maybe Telemaque switching to CB, I feel confident about matching up with their WRs. Especially because OUR WRs are for real and will prepare our DBs for anyone.
I don't think this factor can be overestimated.

People please ignore canesrule, once florida gets crushed by Georgia, he like most Gators will shut up and disappear, dont believe me, ask chad jackson, the most recent gaysville gayturd bust. Randy Shannon will guide us back to the top, show some patience, and support the team,win,lose or draw.

[Sarasota 'Cane]

[BertDawg]

I agree with 86Cane. Alot of the top OL recruits go to the Big 10 or even Pac 10 (as was mentioned in another blog.)so exposure in Texas and elsewhere to get the lineman we need is a good thing. I'm cool with playing Nebraska and I think it will be a competitive series for both schools. It's still Nebraska no matter how you look at them.
