ESPN Gameday Needs to Come to Syracuse for NC State Game

[Trueblue25]

Espn missed out. You’d get cuse fans and bills mafia here

Electricity

Im guessing O'Leary for nc state being hurt in the game last night was a factor, but Alabama-Tennessee is a big game in itself

Probably. Tenn is like Miami these days though and could easily see their little return to relevance end 35-7.

Unlikely, Oregon vs Ucla

I hope so, that is the one game on my preseason progs that I put we have no chance in. Just the way the schedule falls more than anything. And with our previous record with game day at away venues, please no, would mask all the progress we’ve made with a likely similarly bad result down there.

 

[Cuseregular]

I hope Tennessee loses on like a bajillion equipment violation penalties.

That and I hope about 250 people show up total, they must’ve gotten so used to it by now.

Missed out on Haley’s comet to catch a sunrise

Boring.

At first I was annoyed. However, I can understand their point as a top 10 matchup is hard to pass up. Just bad timing really.

 

[Eric15]

I've been foaming at the mouth my entire life for SU to host Gameday, but I mean, it is what it is. We're the 4th biggest game of the day after Bama/Tenn, PSU/Michigan and OSU/TCU.

Yeah I don’t know about that now. If ‘Cuse and Clemson are undefeated that might get the nod over a team that got blown out by Georgia and who shouldn’t be ranked 12th.

 

[storange]

The worst part is I now have that nauseating Rocky Top song in my head. I’m going to hurl shortly.

 

[FrancoPizza]

Take your overly serious and too sensitive takes elsewhere and let me freak out and hot take! Thanks!

Is Otto2000 Jim Rome?

 

[syrBossHogg]

SU's best chance to host Gameday is to have Clemson/FSU come early in the season IMO like 2019.

Hopefully they can keep this staff together + boost recruiting with the Lally complex

If they go back to Clemson for our game, it would be so annoying.

 

[Orangezoo]

Yeah. That said they set precedent this year now with going back to Knoxville. What a nut kick that would be.

Some in this fanbase are funny and not thinking rationally. Beginning of year people just wanted 6-6, and many predicted 3-9, 5-7 Now they are getting really upset that Gameday picked a top10 SEC matchup over ‘Cuse and a banged up NC State.

 

[HRE Otto IV]

The weekend of the ND game has a lot of competition (Fla-Georgia, Okie St-K-State, Ohio St-Penn St)...so unless Syracuse beats BOTH NC State and Clemson, I don't see that game happening either.

Oh well, maybe another time

Won't Ohio State Penn State be FOX? Florida isn't any good this year. I think we win this week, then we get it for ND. ESPN would love to talk about ND all day and it will be two Top 20 teams.

They went to Appalachian State! But they won’t even come to Syracuse when we’re 5-0 and playing a 5-1 team!

Instead they’re going back to somewhere they already went! The slight is real, IMO.

Yeah, sooo.

Doesn’t matter if the OSU/PSU is Fox, Kansas-TCU was Fox too

I blame Herbie who will pick against us again next weekend and then rot in hell

Yeah, I see PSU losing to Michigan & Florida might have 3 losses by then. We’d really need K-State to lose to TCU.

We’d also have to beat NC State & Clemson to have a shot.

It’s called adjusting horizons.

The week of App State there were a lot of bad matchups. The most compelling one that I can recall was PSU vs Auburn.

Gameday is gone for this year. Unless we beat Clemson , in Death Valley.

If we are 7-0 for Notre Dame we will get Gameday. However.. you know, Clemson in Death Valley after NC State

It’s called being unrealistic. I wanted to be mad too, but realistically they were likely the 4th choice.
