Possibility of College Gameday at SU/Miami

I’m kinda leaning Army- Navy as far as what college football is all about.At least it should be but you are probably more accurate because nowadays it’s all about the cash and we all know A&M and Texas have the cash.
Army/Navy game is Dec 14th

Yeah I was responding to what college football is all about.He said Texas vs Texas A&M exemplifies what college football is all about and I like to think it’s more like Army vs Navy or at least should be
 
Every time the board starts talking about Gameday the team goes out and poops all over itself - every - single - time.

Please just stop.

They’re not going to win out. They’ll hopefully win most and have a great season.

But everyone - for the love of god - stop with the ’n Gameday nonsense.
This is exactly why I started a thread Sunday on this topic once I saw a couple people saying such things.
 
It would be better to have Miami with 1 loss.
What if
Miami loses one ACC game, before our game
Clemson loses 1 more ACC game
Pitt losses 2 more ACC games

The ACC standings going into the final week are
SMU 7-0
Miami 6-1
Clemson 6-2 (and done)
Cuse 5-2

If we were to win, Miami, Clemson and SU are all 6-2. We would have the tiebreaker in that situation since Miami did not play Clemson. First tie breaker would be best record against the tied teams.
We would be 1-0, Clemson 0-0 and Miami 0-1... we go to the ACC championship game... and the Miami Cuse game is essentially a playoff game. Game Day would come for that.

Even if L'ville wins out and it is a 4 team tie for second place. Cuse would be 1-0, L'ville would be 1-1, Miami would be 1-1 Clemson 0-1, and we win again.

I don't think common opp thing works unless you have common opp.

Since the odds are multi team ties wont, it will probably go to combined Win % of conf opp.

our best chance

We need to win out
VT needs to Beat Clem and lose one
Clem needs to lose to VT and Pitt
Pitt needs to lose to Virg/BC
Lou needs to Pitt
Miami needs to lose to GT/SU and win the rest

that way Lou/Pitt/Clem/VT/Wake all have 3 losses
and we win the Miami h2h

Now if SMU wants to lose its last 3 thats fine too.

more options if Lou was to stumble vs Stan this week
 
Let GAMEDAY come to us, not US go after GAMEDAY.

Patience, grasshoppah... Like JRHEETER said, we can't get passed the CW!!

Let Coach Fran do Coach Fran things, then we see what happens.

Mind blowing that people think we are some beyond relevant team that ESPN wants to go to.

They don’t even want us on ACC Network, let along a whole show broadcast from Syracuse University.

There is no chance we get Gameday this year and I’m okay with it
 
We aren’t getting gameday this year

Reality check folks, we can’t even get off of the CW

There is ZERO respect for this team or what it has done
FB got a nice mention in mandel’s athletic mailbag today. That’s the extent of the positive vibes it seems.

Which first-year coach — other than Curt Cignetti — have you been most impressed with this season? And which have you been most disappointed with? — Andrew, Chicago

I’m impressed by Syracuse’s Fran Brown. I admittedly knew next to nothing about the former Rutgers and Georgia secondary coach when Syracuse hired him, but he quickly made his mark in the transfer portal, landing former Ohio State quarterback Kyle McCord; then in recruiting, where a program that previously ranked in the 50s or 60s nationally is looking at a second straight year in the mid-30s; and now on the field.

Syracuse, 6-2, has two very bad losses, at home against Stanford (now 2-7) and 41-13 at Pitt two week ago, but it won at UNLV and beat Georgia Tech and Virginia Tech. With games remaining at Boston College, at Cal and against UConn, before closing against Miami, the Orange have a good shot to win eight games for just the second time since joining the ACC in 2013.

Note: Brown may be the perfect example of my belief that being a good coordinator is not an indicator of whether someone will be a good head coach. The 42-year-old New Jersey native had never been a coordinator. But as ESPN’s Andrea Adelson reported this spring, “On his iPad, (Brown) has folders from every stop along the way, with notes, schedules, schemes, reminders and plans for how he would run his own program.”

Syracuse AD John Wildhack was an unconventional hire, having spent the entirety of his career at ESPN. Credit to him for looking in a less obvious place.

Yup and I’m fine flying under the radar this season with Fran Brown.

Love the direction of the program and Fran Browns vision.

I think it’s truly going to pay off in the long run.

I think you're right. But as far as Gameday this year, ESPN has given us 2 primetime games and we've kinda crapped the bed in both of them. So not sure they'll be excited to showcase us on Gameday this season.

Took the words out of my mouth. Cuse needs to graduate off the CW for a season first.
