The Real Ones Canes Podcast

On this episode of The Real Ones Canes Podcast, Brandon and The Beast recap Miami's come-from-behind win against the Duke Blue Devils in Manny Diaz's return to Hard Rock Stadium. Xavier Restrepo and Cam Ward dialed it up again, as X broke two Miami Hurricanes records and Cam tied another. The team rallied around Mark Fletcher Jr. and attended his dad's funeral just 24 hours before the game. The team is undefeated and has its sights set on the College Football Playoff.

On this episode of the Real Ones Canes Podcast, Brandon and The Beast spend a little more time recapping the Canes win against Florida State. What happened with that botched defense on 4th down for the FSU QB sneak? The running game is hitting full stride.

Cam Ward is a leader on and off the field, and Brandon has some stories on that.

Of course the boys discuss the return of Manny Diaz to Hard Rock Stadium as the Canes face Duke. What will Miami have to do to stay undefeated and get past Duke's tough defense? The boys let you know.

Plus, what may have brought top wide out Malachi Toney back in to the mix for the Miami Hurricanes? Brandon has the goods.

The Miami Hurricanes beat the Florida State Seminoles 36-14 at Hard Rock stadium on Homecoming. The Canes got great rushing performances from Mark Fletcher Jr and Damien Martinez. The defense did enough against an FSU offense that has been woeful. The Beast and Brandon give you the recap.

The undefeated Miami Hurricanes face the floundering Florida State Seminoles at Hard Rock Stadium and The Beast has the breakdown. Brandon was off this week, as The Beast talked about the spectacular Cam Ward. Is he the best quarterback in Miami history? Xavier Restrepo is a big part of Miami's success on offense as well.

In segment two, The Beast talks about the defense coming up short. Why is the secondary unable to get the job done?

Also, it's a big recruiting weekend for the Canes.

The Miami Hurricanes survived a shootout in Louisville, 52-45. Cam Ward had another amazing game with over 300 yards passing and four passing touchdowns. Xavier Restrepo was money. The defense and specials teams need some work as the Canes get ready to face Florida State.

The boys discuss how the Miami Hurricanes spent the bye week, including the "players-only" meeting. What do we hope was accomplished during the bye week? We tell you!

The Canes will face a team we thought might be undefeated, the Louisville Cardinals. The Cards have lost two one-score games and have plenty of players from South Florida and a QB that Mario Cristobal coached at Oregon. Will Miami stay undefeated?

Brandon and The Beast give out their position grades as the Canes are 6-0 at the midseason point. Then, in Segment Two, the boys talk about the new recruiting rules without a National Letter of Intent, and the Canes pick up a big recruit.

The Miami Hurricanes overcame every mistake in the book to overcome a 35-10 deficit and beat Cal. It was certainly not pretty, but it's a game we will never forget. The Beast has your recap from the Bay Area.

The boys must recap the Canes' close call against the Virginia Tech Hokies. What happened to Miami? There was bad tackling, turnovers, and the run game seems to be off. There are certainly things to fix as we approach the halfway point of the season.

In segment two, the boys preview the game against the Cal Bears. Miami is facing Columbus High grad Fernando Mendoza, who grew up wanting to be a Miami Hurricane. The Canes must also worry about Cal's run game, especially if Jadyn Ott is healthy. Cal's linebackers are really good, and they have a bunch of takeaways on defense.

Also, we get some breaking recruiting news. Heritage Wideout Malachi Toney is reclassifying and has de-committed from Miami.

It was a crazy ending to a crazy game. The Miami Hurricanes were "that" close to picking up their first loss of the year, but Cam Ward and company pulled it out. The Canes made a bunch of mistakes, but Mr. Ward stepped up when he had to, converted 4th downs and threw touchdowns (4). The Beast has your recap.
