[QUOTE="GoCuse44, post: 32461"]
What would everyone be saying this morning if the players (not Marrone or Hackett) did not pick-up the first down and  Rutgers kicked a field goal in the first OT to win it?  Marrone made the right decision by electing to take the points.  Everything was working as planned in the second OT when the defense held Rutgers to a field goal except for one thing.  Bailey fumbled and the Cuse lost a college football game.  I have sitting in the Dome for the past 21 seasons I am sure its not the last time SU will lose a game.  The only person I feel bad for today is Antwon Bailey.

I would like to give you some examples of what people would be saying if Marrone went for it on 4th and one in the first OT and they did not get the first down:
[LIST]
[*]Marrone is an idiot.
[*]Marrone should be fired.
[*]Why didn't we hire Addazzio?
[*]Why didn't Marrone just take the points and let his defense do their jobs.
[*]Marrone didn't have any faith in his defense stopping Rutgers in OT.
[*]Didn't Marrone remember what happened in the Toledo game when we got stopped on fourth and inches?
[/LIST]
I know its disappointing to lose to Rutgers but it is time to move on.  Lets look forward to the boys kicking Tulane's a$$,  getting a bye week to get the team healthy, and then beating WVU before a big crowd in the dome.

I for one will be happy with a 7-5 record and another trip to the Pinstripe Bowl since we are only in year #3 of the Marrone rebuilding project.

Well the sun is out and everything is good today (despite the loss to Rutgers).  Time to head out and mow the lawn.  See you in the dome on October 21st !!
