Good. You missed a hell of a game. These guys could’ve packed it in, like you did, but they went out and finished strong. Clayton going out with a W, in his last game, amazing. Tajj having a bounce back game. Trill taking it to the house in over time. I had a lot of fun watching today. Obviously the season didn’t shake out like we wanted, but ending on a high note is huge. Hopefully this positive momentum carries into next year and we build off it.

I know we were all frustrated, but shame on you for giving up. These kids deserve better. Happy for them.
 
I enjoyed the game but the warts were all on display yet again. Clock management issues, tons of penalties, undisciplined players (one getting thrown out for pushing refs) ... we won the game but there is so much to correct and no bowl practices to give us a leg up on 2020. Sorry, this year has just been too disappointing.

that ref also needs to keep his hands to himself and call targeting when it happens

I understand where your coming from but that’s the last Cuse football I’m going to get for a while. I’m glad we sent the seniors off winners.

I don’t know about the ref keeping hands to himself but we were owed at least one personal foul call by those refs. Seems like when we struggle to win games we also struggle to get calls.
 
So, I go to the ACC Network and the game was blacked out. Watched on espn gamecast. Didn't know it was on Fox until 8 minutes left.

Guess just the OT was worth it!
 
Was at the barbershop when I got home to see the second quarter from on. A lot went wrong, but they found a way to win.
 
The ref initiated contact. Now Nykeim lost his mind. But that started because the ref delivered a forearm shiver. He shouldn’t officiate another game. Period.
I didn't see contact by the ref though he was hovering over and following Nykeim as he was walking away. Doesn't excuse him pushing the ref though I can see how he would let the frustration get the better
 
I don't get this. I watched the whole thing, but this season has been tough to watch. Sometimes, for my own sanity, I step away early. Doesn't mean I don't care, just don't feel like getting punched in the stomach over and over again.

You’re also not coming on the board and grandstanding about not watching the game days before because you’re so damn important in your own mind.

I walk away from games all the time and come back later if I have something to work on or whatever but I don’t run to the board to announce it so I can draw attention to myself.

The game was never on the ACC Network.

 
it was on ESPN2 i thought
I couldn’t get access thru the ESPN app and it gave me a message about not having ACCN.

If it was an ESPN2 all along, well it would appear I’m a dumbass.

Yea, it wasn’t espn2. That was the b-ball game. My bad.

A win is a win but..... you are very correct. All the warts are still present and in plain view for all to see. Dino Babers needs to tighten his ship down regarding discipline. Discipline is everything from false starting to shoving refs and everything in between, all of which Syracuse University Football does way too much and way too often. Mike Lynch can not call plays. Dino Babers needs to find an OC who is creative and has both rhyme and reason to his play calls. Lynch has neither. Dino Babers needs to go outside and get a defensive coordinator who will scrap the Tampa Two and put in a system that fits the talent here and puts his defense in the best position to succeed. Lets face it, when Wake Forest kicked it up a notch and switched quarterbacks, their passing game started to shred the Syracuse defense. Dino Babers needs to find someone who can develop the quarterbacks on the team. That did not happen this year. In short, Dino Babers has a lot of work to do to make sure the 2020 season doesn't look like 2019. Go Orange!!!!!!!!
