I'm starting to think so. 24 unanswered points on the road at Miami in the final game of the regular season. A win to clinch bowl eligibility.

I think it may be hard to beat some of those Temple games

It has to be his best Miami win at a minimum and best win since Penn State in 2012.

I've got to say, and resoundingly, no. Goodness. I realize they are our rival but our memories can't be that short. Good win, beat our rival, loved it, you loved it, everybody loved it. But Miami sucks and did quite a bit to give us the game after we did all we could to give it away first.

2006 alone... beat NIU on the road in MAC opener for Austen Everson coming out party. win over Akron to clinch the East, beat Miami in finale, on the road, needing to come back in that one too. Miami wasn't great that year, but wasn't completely inept either.

2007 Beat Miami at home to become "bowl eligible". Miami again wasn't good but better than they are now. I believe we were down 14 in that one.

2009 Home wins over NIU and Temple to win the East. nuff said

2010 Roadie versus Temple, even though spoiled by Kent a week later, everyone was convinced 2009 was a fluke and it would be temples coming out party until we drilled them. Again.

2011 Comeback against BG to win the East.

How about that it was another step towards forgetting the 2012 game? Give me another 4-5 more wins in a row over Miami, and I'm pretty sure I can forget that game.

Uh, yeah it's going to take about that many wins. I'm still dead inside when it comes to that loss.

A MAC championship would easily make me forget about it.
