There was literally only one way they could've lost that game, and Miami went out of their way to make that situation happen. A QB kneel ends the game. The only thing you couldn't do was turn the ball over, and they called a play that made it possible. Then, to make it worse, their defense immediately allowed a wide receiver to get Wide Open and score a TD. If they hold GT to a field goal, they still have a chance to win in OT. They managed to do the only two things that could have made a loss possible in that situation. The only thing that would have been dumber would've been a pick-six, and even that would've left more than one second left on the clock. This is the kind of choke that even Falcons fans can look at and say, "Well, at least we never did that". *edit: typo*
This has to be on purpose what are the odds. All you have to do is call a qb kneel, don’t fumble, play your defensive backs far back like near the goal like and make the tackle. Any of those things would have prevented this and even pop Warner coaches could have done it
WVU nearly gave the game away 2 weeks ago passing the ball on 1st, 2nd and 3rd down all incomplete passes very late in the 4th. How these coaches get away with paychecks is insane.
Cristobal did the same thing at Oregon when we played Stanford. Instead of downing the ball, he had RB take the ball, knocked loose and Standford recovered and won the game.
Cristobol did this several times in Oregon and cost them a spot in the college football playoff. Tbh no way anyone could be this bad at game management by accident he needs to be investigated for throwing games 😂
If you're a football coach, this is a great video to show your team to always, ALWAYS, play hard until the very last second. A lot of teams would have mailed it in, but Georgia Tech kept fighting on that last Miami drive. Even if you think your situation is hopeless, you have to keep playing fundamental football as if you still have a chance to win. Because this game proves you do.
@johnnychimpo7539 I mean I almost think it was rigged. The fumble was one thing... But letting the guy run wide open on the hail mary. It was unreal. I didn't even watch I turned the game off when miami got the first down with a minute and fifty seconds left. Game was over.
Cristobal did the same thing at Oregon against Stanford and lost the game. Fabulous recruiter. Abominable in-game coach. Duck fans were glad to see him go.
Mario Cristobal wanted to make sure he wasn’t only going to be remembered for holding back Justin Herbert at Oregon (and blowing a game in similar fashion vs Stanford in 2018).
The entire 1978 New York Giants roster just collectively raised a glass in celebration for no longer being the team most remembered for doing something this stupid
for an idea of how bad of an idea this was, listen to the announcers’ voices. they’ve phoned it in because *Miami would have won if they did what everybody always does all the time.*
The only time you don't take a knee is when there is still plenty of time left and you need a first down. I didn't see the game but if the time would have expired with taking a knee.. Then it's a blunder by the coaching staff.
Reminded me of a NFL play in 1978 that was still regarded as the Miracle At The Meadowlands. This time in the college level, Georgia Tech got that miracle. Also happens on the same night Inter Miami lost and was eliminated from MLS playoff contention when Messi was on the field. Must be the Miami curse spinning around.
As a Tech fan, when considering that the offense marched down the field in 25 seconds to put the dagger through the heart of Miami *in Miami* I think this win is up there with the Miracle on Techwood Drive
I have no clue how they can blame the coaching for the terrible play by the team in the last 30 seconds of the game. A fumble is never a coaches fault. Letting the offense just run them over with zero coverage on receivers is not a coaches fault.
@@kdog2646 that’s clearly Miami losing, you say “drove 80 yards” it was 2 blown coverages in the last half minute, literally 2 plays that all Miami had to do was stop and they still won but they lost.

I'd fire him on the spot. This is literally the most braindead move I've ever seen by a coach. The only scenario I can think of is he mistakenly thought GT had a timeout left ..which is still inexcusable
Lifelong Notre dame fan here... tough loss today. Coaches failed us with horrendous calls, bad penalites, turnovers..... but this.. this makes me feel better.
Hell if I was on a team that did this I would say fuck you coach and just not want to play at all I’ll give 0 effort and lay a big fat egg on the field the next week and maybe the week after that until the coach knows respect goes both ways.
0:17 #9 Was making sure the ref's recognized the change in possession. Good on Georgia Tech for capitalizing on this gift. Definitely up there in the most mismanaged plays in college football I've seen.
I know QB's at the college level usually don't audible out of a play that the coach calls in, but in this instance definitely should have. After the game if the coach had an issue with you changing his call to a smarter more sensible call that secured a win, well then the entire team would know what priorities (or lack of) their coach has. FYI I'm not blaming the QB.
I once heard a comment about college and professional coaches that rings so true. Remember, most of the guys are a few lucky breaks away from being PE coaches.

There have been some incredibly stupid coaching decisions in the past, both pro and college but, this is definitely a top 10 worst. They were literally _one_ kneel down from winning the game. If I was a conspiracy nut, I'd believe the coach threw the game intentionally.

This reminds me of that UNLV win against Baylor back in 99 when the Bears tried to run the ball in for a touchdown and fumbled and the Runnin’ Rebels won
The announcers are so deadpan in this it's like they're not even suprised it happened, just severely disappointed in Miami like a dad who's kid got suspended for fighting.
It only takes one extremely bad play to break the backs of any football team. As a proud UM fan, this loss will set UM back for at least 2 seasons. UM Players looked beyond pissed and that does not look good towards the coaching staff. Despite the good start, the UM season is finished.
This is why even if hurricanes get most of the top recruits in the country and are always on top of the pre-start of college football power rankings, they still can't get anything done.
@@DoubleStuffedCrust i mean not really. the coach kind of overrides it. youre not going to run a different play then he says. and its happening quickly. so the players may not have realized a knee would have been a better play as it was happening.

If you’re up by 9+ in this situation and you hate the opposing coach/program then I get it. This one is indefensible.

I got brain damage watching this!
As a UNC fan I was so hoping for a 7 pm matchup but looks like we got noon bc Miami choked
I wouldn't even say Miami as a whole choked. Just coach Cristobal...wait a minute...I'm not so sure 'coach' should even be in there. What the hell...how do you do that to your team?! How?! 😠😠
@@johnathanpatrick6118 we got 7 pm anyways I’m chilling. Will suck if Miami falls outta top 25 bc of this though. Would love a good win (if we beat them ofc)
@@Licit_x64 Trust me, there's no IF Miami falls outside the top 25. They will.
Lol
No one care about the cheats.
How the head coach wasn't immediately fired is beyond me. How can you justify keeping him as coach after that?
that’s one way to turn a potential CFP season into your last season as head coach
Does Miami have open applications for a head coaching position? Cause I want to apply.
This is why you kneel.
Props to that GT defense for their full effort in those final runs.
Worst football call at BOTH college and NFL levels- and I’m including Pete Carroll not having Marshawn Lynch run the football in the Super Bowl.
This reminds me of that UNLV win against Baylor back in 99 when the Bears tried to run the ball in for a touchdown and fumbled and the Runnin’ Rebels won
Alabama did something like that except with a field goal against Auburn and ended up missing and Auburn returned it for a touchdown
@@sooners2037but Alabama has to Win the game with the kick lol. They weren’t winning
I REMEMBER THIS it crushed Baylor so bad I don't think they won again for years
@@sooners2037that game was tied with 1 sec left.
Or for even older school people when the Giants could have down the same but fumbled and the Herm Edwards of the Eagles ran it back to win the game.
Coach probably got offered 1 million dollars if his team didn't kneel down
🤔
The running back can simply fall down and it's virtually the same thing.
also 75 yards in 26 seconds is pathetic🤣😂
@@tom49733 The RB shouldn't of even had the ball in his hand. You can't defend this. Don't bother.
Everyone on that coaching staff should be investigated including the water boy.
Christobal being Christobal. We LOVE that Miami took him away from Eugene. Thanks from all Duck fans!
One of the worst endings ive ever seen in my life.
That’s the most Miami thing ever
Sad to say that im a Miami Hurricanes fan and a New York Jets fan. They both are "the most ..... ever" 🤣😢
Classic Mario.
I assume that coach was fired immediately after the game.
The announcers are so deadpan in this it's like they're not even suprised it happened, just severely disappointed in Miami like a dad who's kid got suspended for fighting.
One of the reporters should've straight up asked if the coach was trying to throw the game. Absolutely insane
THAT'S IT! NO MORE SUPPORTING MIAMI WITH MY DONATIONS
Just take the knee bro 😭😭😭
It only takes one extremely bad play to break the backs of any football team. As a proud UM fan, this loss will set UM back for at least 2 seasons. UM Players looked beyond pissed and that does not look good towards the coaching staff. Despite the good start, the UM season is finished.
This is why even if hurricanes get most of the top recruits in the country and are always on top of the pre-start of college football power rankings, they still can't get anything done.
Mario Cristobal better get his stuff packed. He’s never gonna coach again
You mean until next week? And the week after? Life is long. He was undefeated.
Ok Miami should’ve played better defense, but wtf😭
The defense shouldn't have even had to return to the field.
Miami kept Georgia Tech scoreless for 3 quarters what else could you ask for
or take a knee and you win the game.......................................................
If your one of the captains on offense, are you able to suggest a better play?
@@DoubleStuffedCrust i mean not really. the coach kind of overrides it. youre not going to run a different play then he says. and its happening quickly. so the players may not have realized a knee would have been a better play as it was happening. (you would assume your coach would correctly take a knee when needed anyway)
Oregon fan here. This is what Cristobal does.
Like, consistently.
Amazing recruiter, very sub-par in game coach.
Enjoy 😂
Cristobal did the exact same thing at Oregon against Stanford at home. This is who he is.
