#492: MIAMI WINS 77-7 vs Florida A&M | OBB Week 2 Recap Show6 days ago38 min

Miami didn't just beat FAMU on Thursday night — they buried them, 77-7, and it looked different from any blowout the Canes have put up in years. Ro, Jenners, Scoop, and Toast break down why the win felt as dominant as the score suggests: Luke Nickel's sharp run at backup quarterback, a freshman class already making plays, and a roster so deep it ranks 119th nationally in transfer portal additions and still looks like this.

The guys hit the record-setting 856 total yards, a 17-receiver box score, and Javion Mallory's Frank Gore comparisons, then move on to the rest of the college football weekend. That includes an IP Daily rant on Oregon's regret over letting Mario Cristobal walk, Oklahoma State's stunner over the Ducks, an early case of "fraud season," and the full story on the wild Ohio State-Texas finish. Steve Sarkisian's postgame attitude gets called out, Notre Dame's win over Rice draws some pointed reactions, and the crew previews Miami's Week 3 trip to Wake Forest before catching up on Duke's Manny Diaz and the rest of the ACC.
