FOOTBALL Lov-ing the defense, one tackle at a time Efforts pay off in decisive victory over Georgia Tech

BY LELAN LEDOUX SENIOR SPORTS WRITER

What a difference a veteran team and coach make. After allowing 472 rushing yards in last year’s meeting, Miami allowed just 95 yards on the ground and only 35 yards after the first quarter. “Our focus all week was tackle, tackle, tackle,” said cornerback Brandon Harris, who had four tackles and three pass deflections. “We worked our tails off to make sure we tackled and it all paid off. We took that loss personally last year.” First-year defensive coordinator John Lovett and head coach Randy Shannon pulled out all the stops in preparing for the game. During practice, players had cut block drills where defensive players weren’t allowed to wear pads and had to shed blocks with their hands and stay on their feet.

Prof. Antweil’s Report Card Miami vs. Georgia Tech : A+ Let the Heisman chatter begin. Sophomore Jacory Harris was remarkable and reminded Hurricanes fans why the future is now. He was 20-for-25 with 270 yards passing and three touchdowns. He connected with nine different receivers.

RUNNING BACKS: A- UM as a team ran for 184 yards, averaging 4.7 yards per carry. Junior Graig Cooper led all running backs with 93 yards on 17 attempts.

WIDE RECEIVERS/ TIGHT ENDS: A+A+ Laron Byrd and stepped up. The sophomores combined for eight catches and 112 yards. Senior tight ends Dedrick Epps and Jimmy Graham hauled in 13- and 14-yard touchdown receptions respectively.

OFFENSIVE LINE: A+ The offensive line was flawless. Harris had ample time in the pocket and was not sacked once. Kudos to senior Matt Pipho, who locked down the Yellow Jackets’ lethal pass rusher Derrick Morgan the entire night.

DEFENSIVE LINE: A+ After giving up 472 yards last year, the Canes gave up only 95 yards on the ground to the Ramblin’ Wreck. UM surrendered just 35 rushing yards after the first quarter. The addition of redshirt senior Eric Moncur paid dividends.

LINEBACKERS: A Redshirt junior Colin McCarthy and sophomore never bit on GT’s trickery and made tackles to limit long runs. Redshirt senior Darryl Sharpton recorded a game-high eight tackles.

SECONDARY: B- Redshirt freshman Vaughn Telemaque committed an unnecessary pass interference penalty on 4th and 11 to prolong a Yellow Jacket drive. Senior Sam Shields was beat on a couple of deep pass plays.

SPECIAL TEAMS: D The only reason it did not fail was because of sophomore Jordan Futch’s You- Tube-worthy hit on a GT player. Walk-on senior Alex Uribe kicked two balls out of bounds. Junior Matt Bosher missed two kicks inside the 35-yard line.

COACHING: A+ An outstanding job by head coach Randy Shannon, defensive coordinator John Lovett and offensive coordinator Mark Whipple. They executed their game plan perfectly. Now they must keep the team focused and hungry.
