On this recap episode of the Real Ones Canes Podcast, Cam and The Beast bring you the full recap and analysis of Miami's disappointing loss to Notre Dame, 31-24.

The first half was just an unmitigated disaster for the Miami Hurricanes. The team looked scared and unprepared. The players didn't play well, the coaches didn't coach well, and the Hurricanes looked like they were ready for the morgue. The second half brought some life for the Canes, but in the end it wasn't enough to overcome the deficit they put themselves in.

Cam and The Beast take you through all of the ugly plays and play calls. They pick apart all of the mistakes the Canes made, and of course they talk about "The Call."

This was a special three-segment edition of the ROCPOD and in the third segment they highlight some of the good things that happened during last night's game. Hopefully that's the team we see against Duke at Noon on Saturday at Hard Rock.

Here's Mario Cristobal's postgame press conference. It's a must watch. https://youtu.be/j9rZXcEbvjg?si=iHxYEsWB-RZpLwSt

There really isn't much to say. It is literally the biggest game of the year. Miami. Notre Dame. The Hurricanes. The Fighting Irish. Sebastian. The Leprechaun. Baby Jesus. Touchdown Jesus. You get it. This is the one we have all been waiting for, and Cam and The Beast have your total preview. Cam explains why you shouldn't jump off a cliff worrying about Miami's pass defense. Might Elijah Loften have a break out game? We get to it all.

The boys also break down the first release of the College Football Playoff Rankings, in which Miami is ranked #1.

On this episode of the ROCPOD, Cam and The Beast analyze Miami's close call against UNC. The pass defense continues to play subpar football, but a combination of issues has hurt the Canes in stopping the pass. Mario Cristobal cited three areas where the pass defense needs improvement, and we discuss them.

Miami is still undefeated at 8-0 and undefeated on the road in ACC play for the first time since joining the conference.

We give props to guys like Darian Mensah, who had a great day, as well as Malachi Toney, Mark Fletcher, Elijah Lofton, and others. Fletcher is now the total TD leader in UM history, and he is not done yet.

Lastly, The Beast brings up an interesting question: Should our expectations change in the era of parity, NIL, and a 24-team playoff?

On this episode of the Real Ones Canes Podcast, Cam and The Beast dive into some of the issues that Miami has to clean up as they head to Chapel Hill to face the Tar Heels, coached by the guy who won a bunch of Super Bowls (Cam won't say his name).

The interior of the O-line is still a work in progress, and the secondary is giving up too many big plays. Stuff like this will hurt Miami down the line. We still believe Miami is the best team in the country, but they have not played their best game yet.

Segment two brings us to the Heisman campaign launched by The U for both Darian Mensah and Malachi Toney. You can watch that video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RhYwPt2kk4

The Miami Hurricanes dominated Pitt at Hard Rock Stadium. Darian, Mali, Javion and the bunch made Pitt regret even stepping off of the airplane at MIA, and they left points on the board. It was't a perfect win though, as ten penalties, a sub-par pass rush from the front four, and more bad angles taken by members of the secondary give Mario Cristobal and the coaching staff plenty to stress in practice this week.

Malachi Toney's stats are redonkulous. Wait till you see how he is doing compared to his stats last year. It's unbelievable what he is doing.

The national media mostly believes in Miami as being the number one team in the nation, but there are some that believe they should not be the top dog. We discuss that and more.

On this episode of the ROCPOD, Cam and The Beast dive into Miami's game against Pitt. The Panthers have one of the best defenses in the country, and their blitzing has the boys worried about Miami's pass protection, which was really, really bad against FSU. We still can't figure out an actual solution to the right guard issue.

On defense, Miami's defensive backfield had a ton of issues against Florida State. That may not show up against Pitt, since their passing game is stymied by the absence of Pitt QB Mason Heintschel.

In segment two, we pay tribute to former Cane Allen Bailey, who passed away this week at 37.

Then, The Beast replays a clip from Episode 150 in which he lays out an idea for Miami to go independent and sign with a streaming platform. It's very similar to what University of Miami president Joe Echevarria told Yahoo Sports' Ross Dellenger this week.

Finally, we give our Miami-Pitt predictions.

It was ONE OF THOSE NIGHTS at Hard Rock Stadium. Miami was a 21.5-point favorite at home against a Florida State team that most fans had marked as dead. Miami made error after error and committed penalty after penalty, and somehow, through all of the mistakes, the Canes came out victorious in the second overtime.

We start out with the defense. There were some subpar play calls, less-than-great play in the secondary, not enough sacks of the quarterback, and stupid penalties. We question the personnel in the defensive backfield, although getting a starter ejected didn't help. We allowed Ashton Daniels to complete hail mary after hail mary. But, in the end, Bryce Fitzgerald came down with the INT, and the Canes won it.

The offense put up a bunch of numbers, but it was not a clean performance. Darian Mensah threw his first pick of the year and missed on some other throws. We did get to see the coming-out part of Javion Mallory. We may need to discuss his likeness to Frank Gore this week. Mali did Mali things. The right side of the offensive line remains a question mark, but we aren't sure there are any better options.

Miami will most likely be ranked number 1, unless the AP does us dirty. What does that mean for the Canes? Were you rooting for ND to win or lose? We discuss all of this and more.
