    USF Tailgate Thread Sat, Oct 10th

    I saw a couple of hotel names in here, but was just curious if there was a main hotel fans/team will be staying at?

    Your Favorite Offensive and Defensive Cuse Player of All Time

    I'll go a little outside the box too because my offensive player is Quinton Spotwood but that was more because of his punt returning skills (former returner myself so I have an appreciation there and I know that isn't truly "offense" per se). But, I enjoyed that era's offense the most with...

    Report: McDonald to WolfPack

    After what happen during the season, a lot of people expected McDonald to leave. I had a feeling he might stick around because of his Assistant/Associate Head Coaching title. Which, correct me if I'm wrong, he kept after his demotion for OC. I figure there has to be some sort of extra incentives...

    Uniforms

    I agree with some of the other posts in the thread. While I would no doubt love an all-Orange look, I thought the Orange popped pretty under the Dome lights (and I didn't have an issue with the numbers from section 302, Row S) and adding a few more accents would really make it pop even more...

    Orangeyes ...Sad news

    Very sad news. I've been following this community through the many board changes over the years and Orangeyes is a HUGE reason for that. His passion for Syracuse Athletics was unmatched. Dan oozed ORANGE. Rest easy now.

    Wr coach posting

    I just got the alert on my phone from the official Buffalo Bills app. Rob Moore named new WR coach.

    ACC Winter Meetings: Whispers-Whispers Everywhere

    I was thinking this while reading the beginning OP (then I saw it in the last point). I wonder how much the ACC will look into the WWE model. I have to believe that will be the wave of the future and the death of cable.

    Joey mcnamara?????

    I remember at least a game or 2 they did last year. I guess their "prep" for our ACC move wasn't too successful. Patrick is one of my least favorite announcers. Half the time I have no idea what the hell is talking about and the other half of the time he is getting some name or stat wrong.

    Joey mcnamara?????

    I caught a number of these mistakes too during the broadcast. Patrick and Ellis were just awful last night. I hope this is just our "Welcome to the ACC" treatment and these guys get their act together. I miss Jay Bilas.

    Are the Bills looking like the Orange?

    I see the similarities between the two programs. Especially if you think about Marrone's first season with the Orange and this year's Bills' team. The Bills played very hard in every game and while it did not result in a lot of Ws, it seemed like the team a majority of the games were close...

    Ennis and Grant are 10th and 11th in the latest NBAdraft.net

    You need to make sure it is a Colt 45 Double Malt...the single malt just doesn't cut it. If they don't have the double malt, a Steel Reserve 40oz is my next choice haha.

    Appreciate it..we are stuck between Scranton and Philly so I have my fingers crossed.

    I'll give you a topic

    I was always under the assumption that these things happened in a cycle, so I decided to look up the winningest programs from the 80s, 90s, and 00s. What I found interesting was that there were 4 schools that showed up in the 80s and 90s but not in the 00s (Nebraska, FSU, Miami, and PSU); only...

    For those with ACC Network coverage/ESPN3 issues...

    I'm in the Lehigh Valley in PA (Service Electric TV). Even though it looks like we are in the green, the Miami game was blacked out. I will have to look again tonight. Is the blackout area set or does it switch based on opponents?

    PRE-Spring Depth Chart

    On Offense, I see Morris or McFarline (or both!) having a monster season. And on defense, that Front 7 could be scary good!

    MCW's roommate

    Am I the only one that read that as, "which allows him to indulge his appetite for bathrobes". ;) On a serious note, good for him. He seems like he has a great head on his shoulders. If anything were to happen, say tomorrow, that would put the kaboosh on his playing career I am sure he...

    wifi in dome

    Is this different than the Orange Hotspot or the same thing? I sit in section 302 and connected without any problems or prompt for a password this past weekend. It wasn't full coverage but I didn't have a problem with slow or unresponsive connections the entire game.

    Arinze is an official NBA player

    He certainly was on the academic honor roll. He took his studies very seriously. Actually pushed me a few times to get my work done... go figure.

    Great start...

    43 points and 28 rebounds...yeesh Wilt was something else. Before my time...I wish I could have see Wilt during his prime.

    Dare I say greatest NBA debut ever?? Can I go there?

    Arinze is an official NBA player

    I'm proud of AO, he was a good friend of mine and frequent study partner during my time on the Hill. One of the nicest guys you'll meet and even harder worker. It's well deserved.

    Calvin Johnson

    I was at the Champs Bowl game too. If it wasn't for being in Orlando in late December, the whole trip would have been a real stinker. I've tried to blackout that game from my memory, but didn't Perry Patterson throw an INT returned for a TD on the first play from scrimmage? The 51-14 loss...

    We got a non-conference schedule for 2014...

    I agree, I don't mind an early bye. Especially with the 2 bye schedules nowadays.

    We got a non-conference schedule for 2014...

    Ahhhh yes how can I forget...my Orange blinder's were in full effect that year. I remember thinking, GRob HAS to get better...we can't be THIS bad. 4 years later...yup we were that bad.

    We got a non-conference schedule for 2014...

    I don't mind the schedule...it's good to have a 1-AA opponent at the Dome to start the season, gives the players a chance a to get their feet wet. Then a MAC team on the road gives the team some confidence in road games (a road game is a road game no matter who you play). With MD at home and...

    We got a non-conference schedule for 2014...

    That's true...Robinson's first game as head coach (remember the optimism back then after that close game?!) and WVU started Adam Bednarik at QB with Pat White sharing time. It was obvious after a few games White was better and after Bednarik got hurt, Pat White never looked back.

    Boeheim live on Sportscenter next...

    Quick notes from the interview... - Excited about being in the ACC - Boeheim said the move to the ACC has produced the most season ticket sales in 1o years - He believes the Duke game will sellout in 1 day, that was never done with Georgetown or UCONN - He said that Duke/North Carolina will...

    There are Probably Some Posters Who Haven't Heard the Dome...

    I was't at the VT game in 1998, but I remember being a teenager at the 2002 VT game at the Dome. The 4th quarter was the craziest mix of emotions I've ever witnessed. Randall/Wilford contacted on deep pass after deep pass that silenced the Dome. But then Nunes/Tyree contacted on deep pass...

    Idea to get more students to games

    I agree...winning can cure a lot. And it is not just winning in general, it is winning at home. I mean, we did attend Cuse during one of the worst football eras in school history. We were the die-hards, made it to every game early, and stuck it out to the end. My life long passion for Orange...

    It was fun while it lasted...PRACTICES CLOSED UNTIL PSU

    I don't mind the closed practice. Let the team do what they need to do. Time to buckle down and prepare the game plan for PSU. It's right around the corner now! I can't wait.

    McDonald to Cohen

    I was shocked by the fact that Cohen responded to GM trying to defend himself. Humble yourself and chalk one up to a learn experience. His job is based on the information he gets from the team, he shouldn't get under their skin. Shoot, the season hasn't even started yet!!

    A thank you from a Fort Drum mother to the Syracuse football team

    I love this kind of stuff. It is all about the kids. The guys looked like they thoroughly enjoyed spending time with them too. Class acts all around and definitely a feel good moment for all involved. Awesome stuff!

    Class of 2014 WR K.J. Williams to East Mississippi CC

    Not sure if this article was posted yet or not (tried to search but couldn't find it), so I wanted to share it. This is out of my local paper, discussing K.J.'s role on his high school team this season and how they are trying to prepare him for Cuse...

    QB Starter Prediction

    I got to believe Allen was brought in to start...so if Hunt does beat him out that says nothing but good things about Hunt. I think it is a Win/Win situation. I just can't wait for the first snap vs PSU, whoever the QB is.

    Take the quiz: How well do you, and the ACC media poll voters, know Syracuse football?

    100%...I was torn on the last time Syracuse was ranked in the top 25 and the recruiting rankings but guessed correctly!

    ACC Kickoff Teams Pic

    This picture is just getting me more and more hyped for ACC play to start. New teams, new rivalries, new beginnings...it's a good time to be a Cuse fan. Even Pitt, who we've played every year for however many years, feels fresh.

    Chance of 4-0 going into Clemson?

    Hey, I was 4-0 going into the Clemson game (they were ranked #3) in NCAA Football 14. Jerome Smith had a 60 yard TD on the 3rd play of the game, then a Clemson 3 and out lead to a Allen to West 72 yard TD on a quick slant taken to the barn on the very next play, another Clemson 3 and out and...

    All-Time SU Hardnosed team

    That's the game!! I remembered him laying out someone which triggered me to put him in the hardnosed discussion but I couldn't remember the exact play... That is a hardnosed stat line

    All-Time SU Hardnosed team

    I thought Tebucky Jones was a pretty hardnosed safety after making the move over from the offense.
