Moela played DT today

[Dcuse]

That kind of says it all when your Offensive Lineman who can’t crack the 2 deep is out playing defense. We are at defcon 4 with players available to play at this point. In addition, we are praying Lequint’s shoe doesn’t come off because we don’t have amother guy to come in for one play at RB right now. Seems like every Monday Fran lets us know that there are 2 or 3 new guys that won’t be able to play the next game. We are crawling into the end of the year again.

This is the 4th game he's played DL.

Moeolo got his first snaps on the defensive line 4 weeks ago at NC State.

So far, Moeolo has seen time on the d-line against NC St, Pitt and BC. He is a very big body, but he has not been very effective.

What’s your point?

That he's played DL all season. Moved there since Holy Cross.

He’s been on the depth chart all year as an OG. Today’s the 1st time I’ve seen him on D but I’m not disputing he’s played there before. But he didn’t start the year on D so it seems it was a desperate move for depth which certainly hasn’t panned out.

And yet Cuse is one of 6 P4 teams to start the same 5 OL in every game, they've kept a QB alive for 9 games, LaQuint is holding up, the depth at WR has been shockingly limitless, and the secondary is okay.

Cuse didn't lose today because of lack of depth. They lost because BC executed better and exploited things Fran couldn't fully fix in Year 1.

Point? exactly

Come on now. We are massively beat up on the D-line and that is not disputable. Nobody is gonna feel sorry for us and they shouldn’t. Unfortunate part of the game. But don’t tell me it isn’t a factor regarding the horrific run defense.

BC put a hat on everyone. Don’t think a healthy Wilson or Jobity or Jacquez was going to solve that, especially since we saw Cuse be awful against the run when they were all healthy.

I don't agree. They would have made a difference. We were gassed today. Zero depth

Weren't beat up against Ohio

Weren't beat up against Ohio

We beat Ohio

 

[BVille44]

What happened to Enrique Cruz? Three year starter under Dino and not seeing the field under Fran.

 

[dwilmont44]

We beat Ohio

While giving up a million rushing yards

 

[LeMoyneCuse]

The Cuse defense simply got out-coached today. The gaps were as big in the 1st quarter as they were in the 4th.

This seems to be the most healthy we've come to the quarter end of a season since 2018. I think most teams will take this in a second. It just sucks 1 position group we were already thin at (DT) is the one that got pummeled. It's also a crime going into a season with 3 capable running backs. We seem to be thin at RB and LB, which are by far the easiest positions to recruit for at this level. This is certainly 1 year that can't be blamed on injuries. We are probably in better shape than 80% of P4. It also seems quite a few injuries stemmed from practice, which shouldn't be happening in-season.

The CW color guy kept saying SU needs to put at least 7 in the box on the D front. It was an obvious thing to try and we waited to the last few plays to try it, It was a major coaching fail.
