| 0:00.0 | The college football playoff semi-final that nobody saw coming. |
| 0:03.8 | It's Miami and Ole Miss, and we have the best preview and breakdown in the world on the internet and beyond here at Cranet Cohn. I appreciate you guys joining. Make sure if you're not subbed, you know the deal. Go ahead and lock. And if you're new here, walk in the front door, sit down. I'll bring you a drink. By the time you leave, you're going to be ready to subscribe. former Michigan quarterback David Cohn, |
| 0:23.0 | former Western State, Colorado wide receiver, |
| 0:25.1 | Blaine Crane. And guys, you talk about a matchup of two different identities. And this is what I love. |
| 0:32.7 | All right, it's fun when two teams that are similar play each other, like we always enjoy that right. |
| 0:38.1 | But what I love the most is when you have a team that's identity as one thing and their |
| 0:42.9 | style of play is one thing and another team who's the exact opposite on the end of the |
| 0:48.3 | spectrum. |
| 0:49.3 | It's like the triple option versus the air raid, right? |
| 0:51.7 | But when you look at Miami and Blaine, I'm going to start with you on this one, |
| 0:54.5 | because, again, you've been higher on Miami than most for longer, and turns out you were right. |
| 1:02.0 | When you look at Miami defensively, because this is what's going to decide the game, |
| 1:07.7 | can you not only get to Trinidad, Chandless, but can you get him down with Bain and Mesidor and the rotation they use with only four? Because that's what they've been able to do. Not, you bring a spy, that's fine, that's that extra fifth guy. You can still hang out in the window and coverage a little bit, but can Miami get Trinidad Chambliss ass on the ground? Or is he going to be |
| 1:28.5 | able to whirling dervish these guys like he's done everybody, which therefore leads to Ole Miss's |
| 1:32.7 | most deadly play, and that's the scramble drill? I want to sit here and say yes. I think you can |
| 1:38.9 | look at these kind of two guys that Miami are going to see one guy that they've seen recently, |
| 1:43.8 | and that's Marcel Reed at Texas A&M. And not only were they able to get back through to Marcel Reed, but they were also able to get him on the ground. Look, it's not going to happen every single time. Obviously, we turned out of Chambleau. He's one of those guys, especially a quarterback, who's quick twitch, and he's tough to touch in a phone booth. But I think with Mesdor and with Bain and kind of the stunts in the games that they play up front, I do think you're going to be able to surprise Trinidad Chambliss a couple times and get him on the ground. Is he going to make plays? Sure. Is he going to break some tackles in the backfield, run around and probably complete a pass. Sure, but that's a tough way to live, |
| 2:18.9 | especially you're in offense against Ole Miss. It's going to have to be a guy who's going to have |
| 2:22.4 | to play Hero Bowl. But I will say this, as important as it is for Miami up front to get to Trinidad |
| 2:28.2 | Chambleau's, it is just as important for them to tackle as well in the secondary that they've been |
| 2:33.2 | doing the entire |
| 2:34.3 | playoffs. Old Miss is a team that is built for big plays, but also taking quick hits, |
