Orange Bowl Boys: A Miami Hurricanes Podcast

On the heels of one of the worst coaching mistakes we've EVER seen as Miami chose not to run out the clock... the Canes drop their first game of the year on a wild last-second touchdown by the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets. Obviously everyone is sideways, including Toast who calls this a fireable offense. We lay into the five turnovers, and how this should have been a terrible win but a WIN that...

It's Georgia Tech week!! As we kick off ACC play we of course have to start with the Miami Nights look. And of course we dive into how the Canes should adjust to Georgia Tech's lackluster defense, and how good the Canes have been coming out of halftime. Keys to the game include the strength of the offensive line, striking early against Tech's defense, putting Tech's offense under p...

It’s our bye week! – remember when we always hated the byes because it meant a certain loss on the other side? Not so much anymore. We talked about how the Canes freshmen are leading the country in snaps with CiCi logging over 200 at RT already. How long can we ride these kids, or are they FINO? Miami also has the Nation’s #1 rated passer according to PFF. Tyler Van Dyke is topping the list. How w...

The Canes improved to 4-0 after rolling the Temple Owls 41-7 in Philadelphia. We all cut into the show with a drink in our hand, which is what happens when you tape a show late on Saturday night! We were all thrilled that we saw the offensive line travel, Scoop is in LOVE with Shannon Dawson, and it seems we all agree that Kurt Warner's kid is not very good. And both Tyler and Xavier Restrepo...

It's Temple week - and while the point spread in this game is higher than expected, the Boys break down what they expect to see from Miami's running game and defensive front in the first road game of the season. And we are all on a high after Shannon telling Mario he wanted to "end this m-f'er" at the end of the first half against Bethune-Cookman. Miami also brought home the AC...

It's so refreshing to have another week where things went almost exactly according to plan. Tyler was electric, the receivers and backs cruised through the Bethune defense, and it was Emory Williams who got the second half instead of Jacurri. We were all impressed to see that comeback drive at the end of the first half, with Mario using all our timeouts to get the ball back, an intensity we ha...

It's Bethune-Cookman this week - and before we even get to Greentree, everyone is still flying high after rolling A&M last week. Shannon's approach, and the things he was saying after the game, made us all feel nostalgic about the Miami football days of old. Toast is big on the defense, Ro enjoyed breaking down the film and Scoop lays out this week's captains. We also fantasize abo...

It was a roller coaster of a game, but a HUGE WIN for the University of Miami, as they knock off the Texas A&M Aggies 48-33 at Hard Rock Stadium. Toast and Scoop agree that it was the best they felt leaving the stadium after a big win in a long time, and Roman got loud in a Chilis because he's out on the road for his son's baseball tournament.  Everyone throws roses at Tyler for an epi...

It's Texas A&M week!! And while everyone is still optimistic, after watching A&M play last weekend we all need to know if our backs can hold up against their receivers. Roman also throws praise at the offensive line after doing Student of the Game after Week 1 - catch up on that now on our YouTube channel, Ro breaks down the game film! And a big question from Scoop - if you don't s...

Our first recap show of the year is a fun one! The Canes totally dominated Miami of Ohio in the Week 1 match-up at Hard Rock Stadium, with a decisive 38-3 victory. Everyone recaps what they loved about the huge win and dive right into the game breakdown. The defense showed in Week 1 just how good they can be, allowing only two third down conversions for Miami of Ohio. This gave everyone some posit...

IT'S GAME WEEK!! We open down on Greentree by diving into the drama of the media being asked not to cover Tyler's injured finger and why the story bothered Toast. Everyone also lays out their Week 1 predictions against Miami of Ohio, and while everyone believes the Canes will win, everyone is looking for improvement in all position groups. The OBBs also lay out their season predictions, wi...

We open the show with AI Scoop, as Scoop is late to join the show. We immediately head down to Greentree, and Toast reinforces that the Canes need to win a "turn my head" game this season to really get the fan base to buy in. And as an outsider coming in, Jenners comments on how Miami is viewed from an outsider's perspective and how hard it is to judge a head coach who doesn't have...

We celebrate Roman's birthday by rejoicing in his pajama pants and reminding Canes nation that Miami better win Game 1 against Miami of Ohio or there won't be a podcast in September.   We also attempt to again make sense of the FSU hype after they landed two players in the pre-season Top 10, and what getting no Top 25 votes means for this Miami roster in 2023. Plus, if Miami was to go 1-1,...

It's a bonus edition of 5 Questions - as a huge debate breaks out about the quality of Breyer's Vanilla Bean ice cream. Plus more fun as the show kicks around the burning questions of the week. Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Scoop is back from Orlando and actually chased down an armadillo on the golf course, tempting fate against leprosy as he ran drunk around a golf course. We also head down to Greentree to discuss all the notes from our insider at fall camp, with details on the performance of the offense line, the stand out play of Ruben Bain, and the talented depth at cornerback for the defense. We also dive into t...

Chapter #81: Team Pee Pee Football practices have started and the excitement level for the coming season is high amongst the OBBs. Toast is drinking the Kool-Aid for the first time this offseason. Scoop agrees on the basis that Tyler's healthy year was not a fluke, and Ro says if Tyler can stay upright and manage to get into the Heisman conversation it's going to be a huge bounceback year....

It's an epic week on the Orange Bowl Boys, as we try to lift the now infamous "Curse of the Closet Poo" by welcoming on the unnamed woman who was the recipient of Najeh Davenport's 2002 closet poop. She recounts the horrific night of Najeh's closet poop as the Orange Bowl Boys try to exercise this horrific curse. Down on Greentree, we hear from Miami coaches and players at ACC...

The season is closing in!! We head "Down to Greentree" and take a look at the state of the UM recruiting class as we get through July - and Mario lands a few big name wide receivers as we turn toward August, with props to WR Coach Kevin Beard for getting these done. We also answer some important questions... like who would win in a race, Achilles-ruptured Dan Marino or Brad Kaaya? Could Bi...
