Hey Sioux Nation! Just got approved and excited to jump in. Hope you guys can come liven up our board over at MiamiHawkTalk.
Agree that special teams will be big this weekend. In past years it has seemed that, while Miami excelled on the PK, we never were a consistent PP threat. I think the balance may have shifted in favor of the PP unit this year, at least until the young D corps gets some more experience. The question is whether Miami can stay out of the box. They seemed to do relatively well Friday with only 3 individual penalties (to Ohio State's 9), but then had 7 called in Saturday's match (to Ohio State's 2).
I've been looking forward to this match-up since the new conference was announced and we see a great rivalry start to develop. Safe travels to those making the trip!
