I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, the hard rock is a world class stadium venue. It’s been a while since I’ve been so there was a lot that’s changed but all for the better. I’m really impressed with what Steven Ross has done with the place since taking the ownership role. He has done many changes to the stadium that have improved the quality with out tearing it down.

Game one was Saturday where UM played ranked Louisville. The UM season is over and it’s been a let down to say the least, I don’t even think I’d call it progress. The team is talented but we can’t win close games. We lost 27-20 and had a chance to win but came up short. The officials were horrible but we lost, no excuses. The stadium was loud despite the smallish crowd. The thing is I doubt they’ll get this place rocking like the OB unless they start winning more. Maybe it’s time to tarp some sections in the 300 level to at least make the place look more packed. UM has a long way to go before we are back to the old days of glory, a tough loss at home that would’ve clinched a winning record and spoiled Louisvilles chance at the ACC championship game.

Here’s the pictures.

The next day we went again to watch the dolphins play. The dolphins game was full and had a lot more energy we won 20-13 but it really wasn’t that close but when you have a one possession game you gotta stay to the end and we did. The game was great and the flyover at the start was 2 helicopters which I appreciated as they are less loud then planes. Not much to be said about this game it wasn’t as exciting imo as the UM one but they’re was some amazing plays made. Jalen Ramsey had two huge interceptions, one that sealed the game. Achane came back this game but after one play was injured and out for the rest of the game, don’t think he should’ve gone back out again, if he was so fragile that after one play he’s out again but what do I know. Dolphins have seemed to all but clinch the AFC east.

I realized after this weekend that I truly live football. I have completely lost my voice after two back to back games of cheering and booing and have been chewing down ricola this morning, hopefully my voice will be back by thanksgiving.
