Crowd vs Crowd is never impossible. Dolphins should have energy and pride, after two consecutive losses. Spread looks about right. My Excel combo of statistical and situational stuff had Carolina by 8. But if I had to play I'd take the Dolphins.
Yes, the Canes resurgence has really altered the local dialog. At the game on Saturday night I heard some Canes fans say the Dolphins should be kicked out of the stadium. Then my elderly aunt called me last night and wanted to know when the Canes play again. She never watches college games but heard so much commotion about Miami/Notre Dame last week that she decided to watch. She was so amazed by how the Canes played that now she wants me to alert her to the time and channel every week. I was telling her about the significance of the Clemson game so she wrote it all down.
Most priceless of all was when Carolyn asked me, in all sincerity, "Why don't the Dolphins play like that? Can't they watch how the Hurricanes play? Can't they take lessons?"
