Shariff Floyd/Matt Elam, tonight in the Sugar Bowl

[kman72]

Both Elam and Floyd have looked good tonight, about the only people that have stood out for Florida all night

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Eh, Elam looked okay; nothing special. I recall three times he got beat in coverage. He is a nice hitter, but he doesn't wrap up; he goes for kill shots. He did excel against the run tonight though.

Elam or Naka?

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Lol Elam, he didn't impress me at all. Bridgewater had his number all night and Elam will be facing a quarterback of Bridgewater's caliber and much better every week in the NFL. He still has work to do. I'd rather just sign a safety in free agency to compete with D.J. Campbell.

Yea agree on the signing a FA part

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Sherrif Floyd though...give that man a contract.

The terrifying part is this entire Louisville team is stocked with Sophmores.

It's all Miami kids though.

Al Golden has cut off that revenue stream. They're not going to restock the shelves.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Words is that Charlie Strong has great ties to the Miami area and can give the "we're in the ACC too" pitch now.

[Password is Taco]

Rather play for a coach like Strong than Golden.

[Miaoww]

Good luck to both of you.

Al Golden is a much better recruiter than Strong.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

He may be a better recruiter but Strong is the superior coach and smart heady players will want to play for the better coach. Don't even try to argue that. Miami native Teddy Bridgewater recognized that and that was with Louisville as a member of the pathetic Big East conference.

Teddy decommitted after Shannon was fired. Golden told him he would have to come in and compete for the starting QB spot, which didn't fly with Teddy. I highly doubt he knew the things that would become for that Louisville team.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

My mistake, wasn't aware of that.
