This game will go down as one of the biggest disappointments of my SU fan history. It's up there with Gtown closing down Manley sad.
Syracuse went into Clemson with every intention of winning the game. We didn't come with our tails between our legs, and I knew from the player post and interviews that the team truly believed they could beat Clemson. I love the swagger and hope that it continues as confidence is everything in life and this team has it in spades.
The game came down to a few key things. First i believe that the Clemson staff did a heck of a job at half adjusting their D to take away Shrader. Not sure if they figured out that Tucker was hurt but they shut down Shader and that made all of the difference in the world. Going forward we are going to have to scheme around this as I'm sure every team going forward will key on him vs Tucker. As to Tucker his is hurt and has been hurt since the Ville game. I'd say he is 80% at best. He looks to be one good hit to his leg and gone for the rest of the year. Not sure if it's a deep bruise or ankle, maybe both, but his is really banged up. I hope that we use Allan against ND and others going forward as he is a stud and given the opportunity I believe will do well.
Refs, my two cents are that it was a penalty against our guy on the roughing call. My issue is that it was the same against them on Shrader. I felt that the PI was complete Bull. We had the kid blanketed with 3 and the coverage was solid and clean. You simply do not make that game changing call unless you are attempting to change the outcome of the game.
Dr. Bob was not on his game in the second half as he didn't adjust to them taking Shrader away. To me that was the chess match and we lost.
Other random points.
JW, please do everything in your power to keep coach White
Our O line did a heck of a job considering who they were up against.
Scap the Wes experiment at FB. He has more penalties than blocks. Let him focus on the OL
On the last play interception Shrader only looked at his first option.
Why not spike the ball prior to that throw.
The kid i believe it was jackson was WIDE open on that throw . Nobody within 10 yards of him but he was in the shadows and that coupled with Shrader locking in is the biggest miss of the season.
Next year we are going to be loaded at DL
The Dartmouth kid is a baller
Let's NIL some WRs from the Portal
ND is going to try and run the ball down our throats
Dino please realize that you arent Homer and that you are one of the worst ever at clock management. Please turn the TO power over to your OC and DC.
Next week is crucial. We need to put our foot on NDs throat and never step off the gas.
6-1 and couldn't be prouder of the team or sadder about yesterday.
Go Orange!!!
