There’s no way that kid didn’t get at least a little trampled. WOW.

Maybe you’re right.

When you’re down to your second QB, and the third QB is a freshman, you don’t run your QB like crazy.

See now this guy sounds like one of those statistics smart guys I was talking about. What are the odds of that! I still believe I can win coin flips with the old, “Tails Never Fails” approach. PS - it failed me. A lot.

There are many posters here smarter than I am, and I’m sure even some who didn’t rely on a fraternity brother to help him breeze through Probabilities & Statistics. Just the same, my pea brain head doesn’t understand it. I get the idea that deferring MIGHT give you back to back possessions -...

Right. Except doesn’t taking the ball first give you at least a better chance of having one more possession than the opposition?

Stats are great. But I admit I don’t understand how deferring has a greater chance of getting an extra possession.

But AD gets paid in Canadien dollars, so we will save a little on the exchange. And, does six tackles convert to five north of the border?

Give me a turkey penny loaf with a side of cheddar fries, please.

On the play in the first half when Angeli got hurt, I thought the Clemson player was late. Angeli was already on the ground and the player jumped right on his legs. No effort to simply touch him down - not that you have to in CFB. I tho it it was intentional to be overly physical on Angeli. And...

I thought it was funny when the tiger mascot helped Gill up after he caught the TD. Good mascot sportsmanship.

It has to be THAT obvious to get a hold call. My dog was yelling for holding.

Carney

Tremble strip sack TD. Let’s go!

Damn straight!

Last year we got them in. This year let’s get them out.

Are a greater percentage of Spring portal transfers a result of “the talk” from their than fall transfers?

Sitter could have been Pena in a Nixon offense.

We should probably be playing up the fact the Coach Nixon has put two QBs on the field, in consecutive seasons, and got them to leading the country in passing. What QB wouldn’t want to play in his offense?

How nice that the revised ACC $ compensation agreement relies on TV viewership…. and we get a parade of nooners.

At my age, the earlier they start the better.

I wear whatever I wear to the dome. Sometimes there’s some orange. Sometimes not. I just try not to wear the opposition’s colors. I go watch the game. Have fun. Cheer on the team. And don’t worry about matching the rest of the fans.

Stonehouse is a beast. Watched him trying to hit the video board at halftime. He almost got it.

Colgate won the toss and took the ball. SU gets ball to start the second half. But Colgate doesn’t get to pick their direction again do they? Doesn’t it just continue alternating from the first half?

Why did SU start the second half going left to right (as seen from the Home side), after going L-R in the second quarter? I was trying to remember if I’ve over seen that before. And how about in the 4thQ when the Colgate team ran out onto the field for the kickoff and half of the team went to...

Good chance to see some young guys at RB.

Really? Doesn’t the ACC own this content?

Is there some reason the ACC Network can’t find it in themselves to re-air the SU/Uconn game sometime this week? Even 3 a.m. on Wednesday morning? They’ve got FSU vs Bethune Cookman airing 3x. Other teams’ games with multiple airings. Are we really that much of a “Orange Haired Stepchild” that...

The calm of the innocent…

Because they expect to win handily.

I always have less info than anyone here. But I have it on good authority, that this year’s marching band is the largest group in more than 10 years - 225 members. And 11 tubas. The whole band will not be representing today, however.

How many fans does the stadium hold? How full will it be? What percentage will be SU fans vs UT fans?

I’m pretty sure not having to admit we may be wrong is built into the SyracuseFan.com terms of service. I pay to be here specifically for that right.

A solid first post of these for the season!

My observations/opinions on a different sport: Parents are worse than previously. Coaches are worse than previously. Players are WAY worse than previously. Obviously not all. But that’s the trend.

Make sure those knees are covered, gentlemen.

I hope the coaches are working on his back shoulder throws. Man, McCord made those look unstoppable.

I lost about that many. I think they were all from 721Comstock.

Round up. What’s two or three pounds when you’re 335.

That looks like a shot to the guy’s shoulder pads to me. Hard to believe that was penalized back then. Maybe today. Maybe if the defense was an SEC team.

Happy Anniversary!

“Don’t always seem to go… you don’t know what you’ve got ‘till it’s gone…”

Put the money in the middle of the room. Let the players fight it out to see who gets what. That’s as good a system as anything we have currently.

Wouldn’t it be nice if we could keep the discussion on the issue.

And there never will be with that attitude.

I’d rather see them “force” one or two (or three) of the existing ACC teams to upgrade their LAX team. ACC should absolutely own LAX.

I’m in favor of not giving players any scholarships. Just give them a share of the gate. If they win, attendance will soar and they make more coin. If they play poorly, well….
