D will have a couple of games to try and work things out/get some chemistry but that stretch starting with Maryland is unforgiving. A new simplified scheme will help but not losing 60%+ of the draws will be the main help. Petro's system was overly complex but you wonder how many games SU lost because the D got bombed but SU was annihilated at the X as well. I look at the ND game as a good example. Game was tied 5+ minutes into the 4th and I think SU ended up losing like 8 straight faceoffs and the score ended up being like 18-11 or something like that.

I know a lot of pundits are high on SU this year but I've been a little more cautious. FOGO, SSDM, third guy at close are major question marks. Foy's comments on hearing the D didn't look ACC ready is definitely concerning. Hoping the first 3 games can help work out some of the kinks but things could get ugly quick as Maryland, Utah (trap game of all trap games) and Army all have potent offenses and great Fogos (save for utah).

P.S. The injured FOGO is not Rice.
