How hard is this???   The issue is not comparing QB A to QB B.  The issue is comparing QB X in Game 1 vs QB X late in Game 2.

However good or bad Angeli was against Tennessee... he was notably better at the end of Game 2... and certainly in games 3/4.  Collins might have been far worse against Duke than Angeli against Tennessee and worse against SMU than Angeli was against UConn... but Collins looked better against SMU in Q4 than he did in Q1 against Duke.  Much like Angeli looked better in Q4 against UConn than he did Q1 against Tennessee.

No matter how hard you try, you cannot make Collins play like Angeli.  And no matter how hard you try, you cannot make Fran start Carney if Fran does not think Carney will either (a) do better than Collins; or (b) not cause more problems for the team as a whole than waiting one or more additional weeks.

Everyone needs to relax.  Not every win means a playoff... not every loss means we are going winless.  Fran Brown is recruiting in living rooms saying that I will work with your son and grow your son into a man... not abandon him after a few bad games to placate fans.  That is what he is selling to make Syracuse different.  If he says one thing and does another, then there is no recruiting advantage.  If Collins STOPS improving at a level that is not satisfactory, I am confident he will be benched.  And even if Carney is going to start against Pitt, do not be surprised if you do not find that out until gameday.  So might as well prepare yourself for another game with Collins...
