Message: [QUOTE="JeremyCuse, post: 4963236, member: 43"] Team has had a track record of major struggles against the 10 man so no I don't think its an overreaction. If you go back to SU's last three matchups against the 10 man all have been major struggles (people forgot the debacle that the UNC first half was last year). Teams are gonna have turnovers against a 10 man it's inevitable, but it's concerning to me that despite acknowledging the 10 man has given us problems we didn't seem overly prepared for it with 20+ turnovers. The other issue is that as good as Gate is in the 10 man, they don't have (for the most part) elite level athletes out there. What's gonna happen when ND and UNC are running 4 and 5 stars around out there in a 10 man ( we know how it went against UNC last year). I don't think it's an Achilles heal issue like say faceoffs were last year but again I think just brushing it off as early season rust would be a MAJOR mistake. [/QUOTE]
