Message: [QUOTE="PASyrFan, post: 726453, member: 2243"] Outstanding thread, with some very really good posts. I live in PSU country, so I've been able to watch a ton of their games over the years. O'Brien is an outstanding HC, who, if he doesn't go pro, will have PSU in the hunt for National Championships once the NCAA sanctions are over. Not only is he a very good x's & o's guy, but he obviously can recruit also. Having to deal with all their fans around me, I'm hoping & do believe that eventually the sanction effects will drive him back into the arms of the NFL. If PSU improves from a pretty remarkable season last year, there will be NFL teams making him offers that will be hard for him to resist. Like Marrone, he really is a coach better suited for the NFL. As for Saturday, I'm expecting a really tight game. In my heart of hearts, I like our chances. But, I bleed Orange, so that take may be tainted. My only fear is that O'Brien will outcoach Shafer & that may be the difference. PSU still has 4 star & 5 star starters that we'll have to contend with. Lack of depth may be an issue, but I don't think this early in the season, that it'll make any difference. This game will come down to turnovers & who plays with the greatest amount of intensity. Both coaches will have their teams flying around. This will be a very entertaining game that hopefully (if we play well), could also help on the recruitment trail. 90% of my neighbors are PSU fans ( the other 10% are Pitt Fans), so keep me in your prayers should things get ugly for us. I've been flying the Syracuse banner out front for almost a week now & no eggs have hit my house yet. I'll gladly handle the eggs, should we win. GO ORANGE!! Btw, I'm glad they're looking at the Minnesota game. It was probably the worst game we played last year, especially on O. Nothing like flying in under the radar. [/QUOTE]
