Inconsistent adequately describes our play this season. By contrast Minnesota appeared to be quite consistent in beating who they should and showing well against stronger wisky and sparty team late in the season. Most of our coaches are in the first year of their current capacity and we'd love to have some of our early season games back with our team as it currently perfoms.

We have 2 identicle opponents both of whom you beat and we did not. You should feel confident based on that alone. I, and other SU fans will point out that those were our coaches first games with a strating qb that proved unfit and has long ago been replaced. We'll point out that Penn State week 1, looked a lot different than the banged up version you saw later in the year. We'll point to how we got NW pre ohio state and you saw them after when they were a shell of themselves to give ourselves some hope. End game, you beat the teams in front of you when you had the chance and we did not.

I see Syracuse and Minnesota as pretty evenly matched player for player and I expect Minnesota to look very similar to the Boston College team that gave us a good game to end the season. Being from Boston, that would be the game to rewatch to get an idea what were about.

Either team could win by 21, but I'll guess on something much closer. It'll be a hard hitting game regardless and likely only fun if you appreciate defense.
