Canes Chatter Gone Wild: Message Board Post of the Day

Every morning Gary Ferman forces Matt Shodell to wake up extra early to identify the best recent fan CaneSport Message Board post. It could be a question, a statement, conjecture, even a food recipe (orange and green macaroni & cheese anyone)? Today’s winner (or loser, depending on your perspective):

Miami / ND will be a #1 vs #2 matchup … Posted by Charlestoncane:In November……as it draws closer it will be one of the most anticipated regular season games in college football history. I look at rosters and there’s 4 teams to me Miami, ND, OSU, UGA.

CaneSport’s Response: That would be awesome. However … there are some possible hiccups in the plan. The main ones: Georgia, Ohio State and Oregon are likely to be ranked ahead of either Miami or Notre Dame (likely UM) even in the both are preseason top 5 teams. So those teams all will need to lose a game. If that happens, we could see it. Because the the Canes have a pretty easy schedule with probably Clemson the toughest game prior to Nov. 7. And Notre Dame should be favored in all its games prior to the UM matchup as well. So Miami fans can root for UGA to lose to an Alabama or Oklahoma, for Ohio State to drop a game to Indiana or USC (the Buckeyes play Oregon Nov. 7), and for Oregon to fall to perhaps USC. A lot will have to fall in place … but yeah, it could happen and boy would that be something.

GOAT Vote

We continue our search for the greatest Miami Hurricane player of all time. There’s been the QB GOAT voting followed by Running BackWide Receiver, Tight End, Offensive Line, Defensive Line, Linebacker, and today we start the Defensive Back voting. So make sure if you have not already to click on the links to evaluate your choices … and then go into the War Room and make your picks.

CaneSport vs. The Machine

In our “CaneSport vs. The Machine” segment we are looking at how AI is viewing the 2026 season vs. well, what we dumb humans think. Today we are looking at what the non-corporeal beings think of the chances Miami has a pair of 1,000-yard receivers for the first time. And what we think.

Roundtable Time

In our latest CaneSport Roundtable, we are tackling Darian Mensah. And sharing our opinions on whether he can outperform Carson Beck’s numbers from last season or Cam Ward’s numbers from the year before when the NFL Draft’s top pick led the nation’s No. 1 offense. Which CaneSport member do you agree with? Or is it a none of the above situation?

Baseball takes Game 1 vs. Louisville
