Games are played with the players available.  It is on the team to prepare their depth.  Part of playing is attrition (injuries, illness, academics, draft, team discipline, etc.).  Wins are not noted with asterisks to define the win does not really count because Player X was out (or in LSU's case Please X1-X9).

Did SU lose to WVU because Grier is a pansy?  NO!  get over it.  SU was down several players, too.  SU was prepared t have players step up (See HCDB and all of his talk re: depth the last three years!)

UCF was good, unbeaten in 2 plus seasons.  They played LSU who was better.  Both were missing players, both had players step up.  LSU's players stepped up better than UCF's players.  LSU won.  Nobody can take the win away unless LSU cheated (to my knowledge, there was no cheating).

We had to deal with the losses after Dungey was injured in 2016 and 2017.  Sucks, but the facts are, we lost.  Syracuse won this fall because HCDB built depth.  UCF was exposed for the team it is, a very good team, but not elite.
