Message: [QUOTE="SU94, post: 1637792, member: 202"] I agree, but only to a small, small degree. Maybe I am not sensitive enough, but SU (and all teams) play the opponents on their schedule. Not the circumstances or logistics of the schedule. All I heard for most of the last decade from this forum is that we schedule too tough early. And because of this, we are never "allowed" ride the momentum of a strong start. Well, this past year, we started 3-0. And lost the 4th game in a strong fashion to Top-10 LSU. 3-1. All good. That LSU setback was the first of our 8 consecutive losses. And, to be honest, I think our 4-8 record last year was fairly-well reflective of the caliber of team we were. I played a lot of sports in my day. Never football, however. What boggles my mind is the idea that kids (and pros too) have to "get up" to play that one game per week. That frustrates me to no end.
