Message: [QUOTE="wfschrec, post: 360478, member: 361"] Again please read my initial response to you ... I have seen nothing in Minny whether its roster turnover ... scheme changes or anything of the like that leads me to believe they will improve significantly enough to make everyone forget their last 2 3-9 campaigns. SU has overhauled the offense and shown fantastic results. Reddish is a significant upgrade over Scott, Eskridge is a player and the DL is the biggest it has ever been in recent memory and that is without Raymon. Teams are not going to be able to pound the ball down our throat like in seasons past ... again I feel SU has improved greatly in some critical areas on top of adding Sales to bolster the passing game ... SU has made major strides I cannot say the same for Minny ... I'm not sure why that is so hard to understand why I feel the way I do about Minny's overall suckiness ... FWIW depending on whom you ask ... (ahem Stern) ... not everyone agrees we are decent. We have had major special teams problems ... and in my opinion the running game needs some work ... we should have been able to easily ram the ball down SB's throat on the goal line and failed twice ... what will happen when we face a big boy opponent with the game on the line and have to punch it in? Again I feel we are better than Minny and I expect the results to show it ... but to say previous results have no bearing on future predictions is ridiculous ... ok so they have 3 wins against an OOC that is much worse than the one they had last season that dealt them a 1-3 record ... so if they go 3-1 in OOC or even 4-0 and then winless in the B1G will that be enough of a track record to say they suck? To paraphrase ... Marion Barber III isn't walking through that door ... if Cuse goes out and lays an egg I will be very disappointed. [/QUOTE]
