Message: [QUOTE="Cuseregular, post: 4742500, member: 185"] Yeah just nuts right. At the risk of blowing smoke up my own skirt exhibiting some trump level narcissism, because of my history in the sport, I have a knack for predicting these things. Including years and years ago, predicting in preseason that Rutgers and temple would beat us when they sucked and we were “good”. Seem to be always within a game on my progs. Told everyone in my circle last year that we’d be be good. Telling everybody this year we’re going to be really good. When we were interviewed last year before the first game at the SyraCruz tailgate on one of the television stations I said on camera “Syracuse will be the surprise team in the country this year” which was looking good at 6–0 and couple bad calls away (on slow Mo Clemson‘s QBs left foot was in bounds when he was hit) from 7–0 at Clemson, then who knows what happens. I remember looking around as I was being interviewed seen some there laugh along with much pessimism amongst many regulars in my family and here. Throw in the triple whammy injury (ankle, foot, arm) to your star player, and others injured as well, and we saw what happened. Predicted 8-4 last year, ended at 7–5. This year predicting 9–3, which means if we have similar trajectory with injuries and southern unhospitality calls, we go 8–4. No injuries and some good bounces of the ball/calls and It’s as JR notes, we go 10–2. Regardless, it is going to be a fun year starting with an early statement domination game tomorrow like the old days when we played FCS/Div 1AA opponents. As for those young kids ridiculous projections, they don’t know shite! But that’s ok because “they just didn’t know”. Have fun, gentlemen and ladies, this is going to be an enjoyable season.
