Things To Be Encouraged By

[All4SU]

- Ohio and Buttgers are not offensive juggernauts, but SU’s defense is creative, swarming, enthusiastic, and physical.

- Last year, in a horrible season, SU’s turnover margin was great. If we can start getting some of those turnovers this year, we just may be able to keep things competitive until our O gets figured out.

- Williams can punt.

- The offensive line is better than it’s been in a while.

- We are due for some better officiating. (Lame I know, but I could not resist adding that.)

Rutgers got 5 sacks. So, the jury is out on the OL.

Meh, gotta disagree on that. Even with a few sacks yesterday. I didn’t say great, I said better. The last two years were indescribably bad. This year, we’re get at least some time and some holes. And guys are not in the backfield at the snap. Definitely improved.

Excellent play calling? But seriously, definitely excited about the defense. They were great.

I think our OL has been better but TD has still been sacked 5 times vs 43 passing attempts, which is a high rate. Oddly that is the lowest sack/attempt rate of his career thus far. Then again IMO many of his sacks are hsi fault and not the OL.

Well done, sir.

The OL has improved dramatically, from worst in FBS to serviceable P5. If we need 7 seconds to get the ball out, then this offense is never going to work.

It was actually a bit chilly inside.

I never realized how much the heat bothered me until I experienced the AC on Saturday - a totally different Dome experience.

i remember after beating wisconsin and ron dayne in the opener sitting between two 250 plus pound wolfpack alumni fans in the corner under the concrete. had to 90 plus degrees. and i had to endure the sweaty belly slaps as they high fived over me during that jamie barrette dee brown fumble debacle.
MORE AC. MORE DEODORANT PLEASE.
