First of all, congratulate yourself if you didn’t see a minute of Thursday’s Independence Bowl/exhibition game between Louisiana Tech and the Miami Hurricanes. Because is was this one up there with the all-time stinkers.
Second of all, I’m sorry if you’re a Miami Hurricanes fan because this once storied football program might have hit rock bottom again with their awful performance in a 14-0 loss, which ends their season at 6-7.
That final score actually makes this game seem more exciting than it was, which is hard to believe. Louisiana Tech scored a touchdown with two minutes left to make it a two-score game. Before that we saw 16 drives end with a punt, 3 drives end with an interception, and 3 other drives end with fumbles.
Miami had three QBs – Jarren Williams (94 yards passing), N’Kosi Perry (52 yards), and Tate Martell (7 yards) – throw at least one pass and none of them were effective.
Miami’s leading rusher had just 31 yards on 12 carries.
This program used to win national titles. Now they get mocked after brutal performances in a Bowl (exhibition) game:
