It's only one game.  These kids are playing in a new system on both sides of the ball.

Lamar Jackson is outstanding, perhaps even beyond outstanding.  He throws a tight spiral a country mile without effort, so much so that his receivers sometimes struggle to catch his ball because it's on them so quick.  And LJ runs the ball with tremendous speed, some power and impressive vision.   The SU defense playing in its second game in a new system was very slow to respond early against an elite QB, and I think that is to be expected.

SU made several plays on both sides of the ball which is encouraging, and the offense will continue to score points.   Many on here posted heading into this season that SU needs to score a lot of points to win 6, and it's true.  I just hope Dungey stays on his feet (doesn't jump), although I think Mahoney is a capable backup.  A healthy Dungey is really important.  Surely the football gods will spare SU yet another season where the #3, the #4 and even the #5 QB ends up being a starter.

Learn from it, flush it, onward.  Go Cuse!!
