GaTech opens -6.5….

[690West]

We will add a mutation to the Villari variant. It spreads. Cuse wins outright.

We can play a similar style next week but will need Wilson or someone whose an actual passing threat back there. Maybe they can work with Villari. Problem for the last 2 games is yesterday's offense is now on film and both Tech and Wake will pit 9/10 in the box. SUs gonna have to have some semblance of a passing game

8 years in and no serviceable third string QB

Yup. It will all come down to working some passes downfield into the plan. I’d use Villari. He threw a beauty to GS yesterday on the goal line.

Tech is going to stack the box unlike anything we’ve seen in 30 years.

A guy like McPhail should be able to play in a pinch even though it's less then optimal. A P5 D1 team has to have 3 QBs on the roster who can at least complete a pass at this level. SU has maybe 1.5

 

[690West]

Only DK is open so far. But interesting that the first bets that came in were Orange. Down to -6

I don’t know if it’s reasonable to ask for a serviceable 3rd string. Cuse is not a football factory and players who would be “serviceable” can seek other opportunities pretty easily these days.

Pitt put them all in the box too. The real question is can the 3 that touch the ball, Villari especially, put the entire offense on their backs two weeks in a row?

The OL run blocking was great yesterday, but a lot of times, there wasn't a hole and they just willed their way for 5-7 yard gains to getting to the sticks.

It was a lot of fun to beat up Pitt like that, I must say. Don't know if we can do it again, but a lot of fun.

Circa has -7 opening.

I agree, can GS/CDW/DV mimic Pat White, remember WV, we shall see

I was told we have the deepest QB room in years.

Unfortunately that was as accurate as the most improved Wr room in years.

 

[upperdeck]

The miss to Allen hurt.. but he ran a poor route on top of a poor throw as RBs will do.

I think the OL blocking was good too but not as good as it looked. Villari got hit early almost every play it seemed. He made a lot of yardage on his own. I only remember a few plays where there was a real good hole he ran through.

I'm gonna say definitely not

Hey have you taken a measuring tape to that room? It’s huge, like 30 x 30

 

[SUFaninNJ]

I was told we have the deepest QB room in years.

Were you told that recently or was that before Sellers and Lamson changed their minds about playing QB at SU?

 

[Trueblue25]

The culture alone moves the line in Atlanta

 

[OburgOrange]

Sellers was never here, so not in the room. Even after Lamson left we had 3 SEC QB’s before they transferred here.

 

[UnknownOrange]

Even with a week worth of film and practice, the offense yesterday is not easy to game plan for. Especially not knowing if it will change at all. Can Shrader throw next week? Will CDRW play?

A bowl is there for the taking and would i love to be 9-3 or 8-4? Of course, but winning 6+ for only the 10th time since 2000 is still good.

But from there we need to get back to the 23 years prior to 2000, where we won 6+ 18 times, but half of those were 8+ wins/yr

 

[SUDadx2]

Hopefully every week GS and CDRW get a little healthier.

It would be interesting to see CDRW (6’2”, 222) in the shotgun (or pseudo-wildcat) next to Allen with Villari (6’4”, 234) and Shrader (6’4”, 224) also on the field shifting and going in motion to create advantages; 4 guys who can run and a couple who can throw (maybe). Three “football players” and a running back.

Grab some popcorn and enjoy the show.

It was only meant as the 1st string guy.

Yup. It will all come down to working some passes downfield into the plan. I’d use Villari. He threw a beauty to GS yesterday on the goal line.

he also overthrew a wide open LQA by about 30 yards.

 

[llandz]

I say put CDRW in with Schrader. When the snap goes to CDRW he just needs to stand there and throw if his ankle is still not better. Defense doesn't know which way we are going. Add Villari, Allen, and Price and we got trickery galore again.

 

[690West]

Ha. I wiped that one from my mind.
