Speaking on that a little bit more, Ward finished off
today's matchup versus FSU, 208 passing yards.
But what he does so well as a leader or
what this team does so well, them being Miami is
the balanced attack opportunities they have because 200 yards might
be low for award, but they still found efficiency in
their play versus FSU.
36 to 14, Martinez on the ground, 148 rushing yards
for two touchdowns.
Insane.
And then they have a bit of a carousel when
it comes to the receiving room in terms of who's
going to to their top target of the day.
Today it was Horton with 65 receiving yards through 6
receptions.
So with those numbers and just seeing the versatility and
their ability to attack their opponent, is that going to
make for a case for Ward per SE, even though
he's in the ACC and it's kind of looked at
as a weaker situation at the moment?
Yeah.
Listen, I, I, I think it helps if you're coming
out of the SEC or the Big 10.
I, I mean, traditionally voters are going to look and
say you're playing the best schedule, you're playing in one
of the two top conferences.
That automatically helps.
But for context, I think voters, the majority of voters,
are savvy enough to realize how long it's been since
Miami has been relevant on the national scene, competing for
titles of any kind, whether that's a conference title or
a national championship.
And this is the one guy who's been the difference
maker.
It's not necessarily Mario Cristobal.
It's not Damian Martinez in the backfield or any other
transfer portal pickups.
Getting Cam Ward has thrust Miami back to a point
where we could say they're a legit top ten team.
That to me, more than numbers is going to stand
out for voters, especially this season, guys, because there's there's
not an obvious choice.
Nobody's running away with this, and I don't know if
we're going to get a November surprise.
We've had that in the past where a guy gets
hot at the right time, leads his team to a
title.
I don't see that guy right now coming out of
nowhere.
So the Gabriel's, the Cam Wards, the GTS, maybe Travis
Hunter at Colorado, those are the favorites for good reason
right now.
Yeah.
And if anything, this college theme might be who could
be the most consistent because we've seen great play, but
we've seen a lot of inconsistency from a number of
names and teams.
