Message: [QUOTE="syracuse95, post: 4788935, member: 860"] I'm not sure about that. From 1987-2001, we had 15 consecutive winning seasons. In 2001, there were only 4 teams with that many or more consecutive winning seasons...Syracuse, Michigan, FSU, and Nebraska. In 2001, we had gone to bowls in 12 of the prior 15 seasons, in a time when there were only 25 bowl games. We won 10+ games 5 times in that 15 year run, and most of those were 11 game regular seasons. We averaged 3 losses per year during that span, including bowl losses. We appeared in the Top 25 in every one of those seasons, and finished in the Top 25 in 10 of them. So, in the 2001 season we had a pretty longstanding record of success. At an elite level. Our average home attendance in 2001? 41,103 A) Scooch is right. The Dome is too big. B) I'm so glad I graduated from SU in '95. My youth corresponds to peak SU Football. [/QUOTE]
