Skip ahead to the 2:48:40 mark.

You know you want to.

 

[cuseguy]

Kirby Dar Dar!

You gotta love it!

I needed that.

 

[djorange1989]

Next to 1987, this was our best team of the last 50 years. So glad this is on You Tube now!

Nice uniforms

 

[cuseguy]

It almost pains me to watch it.

Okay, it pains me.

The field conditions were an embarrassment. Sandbox.

I was like a kid in a sandbox that day.

Still have my Fiesta Bowl polo.

 

[MSOrange]

Holy cow! We have awesome uniforms and we made a huge play on special teams. I can't believe it!

And if you look really closely in the background you can see a young Doc Gross talking on 3 pay phones at once

It's amazing how Colorado has faded even worse than we have. Two former consistently successful programs that are now consistently poor

Was thinking the same.

And once you lose it, it's hard to get it back.

I actually think you could make a reasonable argument that the 1992 team was better than the 1987 team.

It's so funny watching a guy take his helmet off while celebrating a TD - the good ole days.

 

[Scooch]

SU football used to be so much fun to follow.

surprised that 1992 is behind 96, 87, 88, 91, and 01

punished for SOS, played and beat plenty of good teams but some real dogs on that schedule maybe?

random note - 28.3 ppg in 1992 was 20th in the country

this year, that's Iowa at #70

college football is so different - gotta wonder how much that offense would've scored now

 

[elimunelson]

that's the game that opened my eyes to going to Syracuse. I'll never forget it. Psyched it's online now.

We will get there someday. Takes some bold decision making but it'll happen.

 

[elimunelson]

The uniforms are fantastic, simple and pure Syracuse. numbers on the pants, no S on the helmet.

It seems that the players were larger then? Is it the pads or the recent emphasis on speed?

Probably the difference between a top ten team... And whatever the hell we are now.

Shoulder pads were giant then.

That was awesome. Zubaz, bad ford commercials. 0S/2. Shitty field. Todd Christenson & Charlie Jones. Kristi Yamaguchi. Fade haircuts. A halftime report hinting coughlin was leaving BC for the G-men. Subwsy commercials that didn't include Jared.

 

[NKR1978]

That is genuinely depressing. I have a seething dislike for those in the administration that allowed us to fall behind.

I'd give up 3 years off the back end of my life to get to see a truly great Syracuse football team. I'm only 36, but I genuinely fear that I'll never get to see one.
