Yes, they are going to be ranked inside the top 20 tomorrow. And they belong there.Sure, Liberty’s for real. About as real as the ACC currently being a pretty pathetic football conference.

They play NC State in 2 weeks. They have a good chance to win that one too and if they do, they are going to finish the season undefeated and in the top 10.
They have done a great job scheduling and maybe gotten lucky some too, with their opponents suffering key injuries. But that staff has done a great job getting talent in place and coaching up some players that were not highly recruited.Well good for them. They can sing hallelujah afterwards that the ACC door mat team in SU, along with mediocre unranked teams in VPI & NCST, anointed them to such Devine standing.
Do you think we have the same level of coaching that they do?They have done a great job scheduling and maybe gotten lucky some too, with their opponents suffering key injuries. But that staff has done a great job getting talent in place and coaching up some players that were not highly recruited.
They are a great example of what is possible with good coaching, a favorable schedule and a few really nice players. We are not far away from being where they are now. It could happen next year for us.
This thread is misplaced and is the most common straw man on these boards. The point isn't that Liberty is good - it's that we stink. A year ago we shut them out - this year they hammered us. The difference in our trajectories is staggering.
There is nothing wrong with being a positive, glass-half-full kind of person. But you have to endure the cynics too. Especially this year ... they have a point. (I know there is also such a thing as "beating a dead horse," but this is message board. It's kinda what happens here)

Exactly. Syracuse fans should know better than most fans what a big difference a good dual threat QB can have on a program. They can cover up a lot of flaws.The difference in last year and this year is their QB. He’s the type of dual threat talent we need.
Depends on the age of the fan. The younger ones may think Dungey was the exception. The last good one before him graduated 22 years ago.Exactly. Syracuse fans should know better than most fans what a big difference a good dual threat QB can have on a program. They can cover up a lot of flaws.
