BC Game Thread...

Dungey and Strickland ?

Dungey Strickland Robinson Black Cordy Martin among others. We have LBs playing DE. We don’t have the depth to replace key loses.
 
Remember when posters wanted Shafer extended during that first season.

He did suck. I questioned his hire but was willing to give him time. That time got shorter and shorter as year 1 went by.

Geez, BC didn't even break a sweat on that drive. Our D is clueless on how to defend them.
 
Again wholesale changes are needed on the D. Players and staff, Babers has to make the adjustments. Team has shown flashes but back to back disasters in the last quarter of the year isnt going to cut it.
 
Would year two have been any different if Scott Frost choose Cuse over UCF? These last three weeks have been brutal!

In their defense we are playing a zone behind it - it isn’t anyone’s “man” per say.

Haat off to this Wade kid making plays back there.

Making plays? He’s throwing to a TE with absolute no one near them

I get the notion that he’s keepig the play alive but our guys are clearly in contain or something

Dude - we have two safeties out. Bradshaw has one arm (I think we finally took him out today), and our two senior lbs probably shouldn’t be playing.

That’s the primary difference right there.

That being said, the size differential between BC and SU is actually shocking. We must absolutely get bigger up front. As great as Bennett and Franklin have been for us, we are still undersized our there. Combine that with J Thomas and 2 out of our 3 lbs are safety size.

Finally, I just don’t think our backups are ready to play. Some of that is on staff too. Carl Jones has been misaligned on 4 or 5 snaps, one of which was costly.

They have to do a better job getting these kids ready to go, but also a lot of these kids shouldn’t be called on out there either.

It’s funny DB defenders love to say Marrone should have had a 9-3 or 10-2 season but when talking about this season, 4 games is right where we should be because we have injuries, lack of depth, “isn’t this what you expected at the start of the season”, etc.

I am pro Dino because I was anti Shafer.
If Dino isn’t getting it done I will want him gone.
We underachievered in 2012.
The Northwestern loss was because of stupid undisciplined mistakes on that penalty.
I still don’t know how we lost to Minnesota.
The special teams blew the Rutgers game.
Cincinnati we kicked attempted a 48 yard FG and the refs called back a pick 6.

I am not blaming Marrone but that team should have been better than 7-5.
 
everyone has a story. And this program can't withstand injuries the way others can because of our lack of depth. But that is a far cry from just being run over all over the field the way we have the last three weeks. Our injuries don't excuse that. Okay, we can't win a game. But we can at least compete better than this.
 
Team, especially the D, looks like they quit on the season ever since that 2nd half Wake debacle.

Dude, I get that we can't win. I don't get that we can't compete at all. 43-5 against Wake. Over 50 pts against the Ville. This today against B.C.. Lose, okay. Not compete. That is different.

The loss of Pugh early in that season killed that team

I wouldn't say that. They came out an improved the run defense. But they never solved the wide open TE crosses. At least they tried to improve
 
I like to think I'm a realistic fan. I wasn't expecting Syracuse to waltz over BC given the injuries and issues. I was absolutely prepared for BC to win. But I thought it would be a competitive hard fought game. I didn't think BC would waltz in and just take our lunch money without breaking a sweat. This is humiliating.
 
How many freaking time outs are we gonna waste because we can't get a play called?
