Message: [QUOTE="HtownOrange, post: 5528543, member: 622"] Here it is, game day versus B.Y.E. It’s a bit hard to get excited about this game after two tough losses on the heels of losing our QB. Even the Fine Mess crew skipped planning the traditional tailgate. TexanMark, JeremyCuse, and the whole crew are making us fend for ourselves, Orange Extreme hasn’t posted team photos. There is no uniform thread, nor a look-alike thread. We may not get a Tom’s Tuba Tally, it really depends on whether the weather is good, Tom may go golfing instead. Even CuseLegacy is rumored to be off doing something other than monitoring the game thread keeping loyal SU football fans from going off the deep end. I mean, it’s a good way to avoid a suspension, but still, not having some guardrails…sounds risky. The Fighting B.Y.E.s, or as Rutgers now calls them the Battling Bastards of B.Y.E., held Shady’s boys to a goose egg last Saturday. Sure, the B.Y.E. Offense sucks as Rutgers held them scoreless, but then even Shady should be able to hold the worst offense in CFBdom scoreless, after all, he is a defensive genius — that is if you call diving for the knees of the offensive live line a genius move. Let alone in meaningless end of game plays. But I digress, the Fighting B.YE.’s defense should not be overlooked, Collins has been bad and the matchup today of Collins against this defense is not favorable. SU played two poor defenses the last two weeks and Collins made both look good to great. Here’s to hoping that the B.Y.E. Doesn’t tear apart Collins and the offense. Speaking of defense, SU has had little defense the last two weeks after showing signs of life against Clemson. SU will need the Defense to win the day, unless they want SU to end like the Rutgers game ended, a 0-0 tie called after regulation due to a lack of interest. We won’t need much to hold down the B.Y.E offense, even Rutgers handled their offense, this should be a bright spot for our Orange. I am not a gambler, but I did place a bet that SU does not lose, today. After all, SU is playing the second worst team in College Football. After shutting down the mighty Scarlet Frights last week, I think we have to place B.Y.E. one step above Rutgers. Well, that’s it, not much of a write up, but SU has played uninspiring football the last two weeks. We don’t lose today, but then is a victory over B.Y.E. a bragging point? I mean, for anyone other than Rutgers. What think ye. [/QUOTE]
