[Post on Canes-Virginia game is in the blog directly below this. Comments specific to game are encouraged there. Comments about game in the context of season are encouraged here].
Saturday's easy home win by the Miami Hurricanes, 52-17 over Virginia, has sent fan satisfaction back into the healthy/happy region after a two-week lull. It's now 95.2 percent overall satisfaction -- including 66.4% calling themselves "very satisfied," according to the latest Canesfan Satisfaction Meter poll results.
The CSM, new to the blog this season, is a continuing gauge of how UM fans are feeling about the team and season. Polls are posted following the conclusion of every Canes game. Season results appear beneath the latest poll.
The criteria for voting is your own, but I suggest you consider the most recent game's performance, the season as a whole, the program's direction, and your overall degree of optimism -- all in the context of reasonable expectations.
Poll and comments section stay open, but results become official on midnight the day after each game; in this case midnight Sunday.
Canesfan Satisfaction Meter season results:
Game 1: 98.9 percent satisfaction (72.3 very, 26.6 somewhat) following 38-34 victory at FSU.
Game 2: 99.5 percent satisfaction (89.0 very, 10.5 somewhat) following 33-17 victory vs. Georgia Tech.
Game 3: 65.3 percent satisfaction (24.9 very, 40.4 somewhat) following 31-7 loss at Virginia Tech.
Game 4: 99.0 percent satisfaction (87.5 very, 11.5 somewhat) following 21-20 victory vs. Oklahoma.
Game 5: 99.0 percent satisfaction (76.4 very, 22.6 somewhat) following 48-16 victory over Florida A&M.
Game 6: 97.1 percent satisfaction (71.5 very, 25.6 somewhat) following 27-7 victory at Central Florida.
Game 7: 44.1 percent satisfaction (15.5 very, 28.6 somewhat) following 40-37 OT loss vs. Clemson.
Game 8: 59.8 percent satisfaction (13.4 very, 46.4 somewhat) following 28-27 win at Wake Forest.

Who gives a rat's ass about being first, you putz.
Using "God" as a Username, another brilliant thought by someone who obviously has the native intelligence of a guava.
On the other hand, my message is simple.
Way to go Canes, and thanks Randy for letting us pile up few BCS points.

Gawd I hate the Gators. I hate that they're good and I hate their arrogant asshole of a coach. But as much as I want to hate Tebow, I can't. He is just a nice young man who's hard to root against. So I hope Tebow throws for a thousand, runs for a thousand, scores 10 TDs and in the end, the Gators lose BIG. Is that too much to ask for?

Neither UF not Alabama (the hated Satan team) are dominating their games, but Texas is getting to the BCS Final having played no one. Their toughest opponent, OU, plain stinks with their B/U QB.
Now even lousy Nebraska beat them. I'd like to see what TCU could do against Texas. I think 4 teams have ruled themselves out of contention this weekend, Boise St, Cinci, Oregon, Iowa. Iowa unluckily lost their QB early. Oregon..what the heck. They looked like the best team recently. Defense sure got exposed.

Hey aren't the Dolphins playing a rather large game today Cote?

Cote is asleep at the wheel. Much like the nitwits running this country.
