Tonight is the Most Important Game of Dino's Tenure

[IthacaMatt]

Wake Forest has lost 3 games in a row. Their place is literally empty. Looks like there will be very little home field advantage or atmosphere.

Believe it or not, as outright terrible as this team has been, a win tonight makes an 8-4 regular season attainable.

Dino could do a lot for his reputation if this team can get up off the canvas and get a win tonight. I honestly think tonight is make or break for his tenure here. Win tonight and next year looks a lot better.

Lose tonight, and we could very easily lose out after a 6-0 start, and a lot of guys who otherwise might have come back might go portal.

60% of our OL is out of the game. Good luck

Sure it is

Is it on the ACC Network or The Wake Forest Network? Hard to tell.

 

[IthacaMatt]

Sure it is

For the disaster of losing 3 starting OL unexpectedly, that was a solid first drive. Didn't like 3 straight calls to Tucker after the 2nd run was stopped for a loss.

As long as Anae keeps the throws over the middle and Shrader can get them out quickly and accurately, there could be a happy ending tonight.

No happy ending for you

The refs did us no favors at the end of the 1st half. Neither did Dino.
This was a winnable game.

Zero penalties called on WF kinda says it all on a night when a TD is called back on a beautiful play.

This league is not to be toyed with...

Once again in November, the wheels have fallen off. Thanks Babers!

5 wins in 7 years just isn’t enough for you? Picky picky

Yeah, this is now beyond tired.

Wake doesn't have great talent. They run more plays than anyone. Yet their Penalties per game is amazingly low. In ACC only games...

Wake 4.6 1st
SU 9.7 last

Under Dino we are consistently near the bottom of the conference. That is coaching.

Had to check. 3 of the 5 November wins in 2018. That's a crazy stat.

Yes other 2 were in 2019

 

[RandomGuy]

5 years without a November win. WOW.

 

[FloridaFan]

5 years without a November win. Kroiky.

That 2018 extension got dino paid for a long time

 

[JeremyCuse]

5 years without a November win. Kroiky.

Well technically 3 but it feels like 5

This is dino record every year of the last 6 games of the season.

Something is off. And it’s not like the players aren’t still giving max effort. But the injuries are killing us. It’s just insane. The defense is a shell of what it was at the beginning of the year. I’m not surprised teams are scoring at will.

 

[RandomGuy]

Dino's record is 35-48.

Addazzio, who we loved to bag on, was 44-44 at BC... If we go 13-0 next year, he'll match the dazzlers win percentage.

By allowing Dino to continue, the SU leadership is implicitly accepting the state of the program.

With the exception of Coyle giving Shafer the pink slip after year 3 that is basically the story of this program

On the plus side, this is something to build on for his next 6 years here. It can’t get worse right?

I'm not being a Dino apologist but we constantly get the short end of the stick with more road games in the back half of the season especially in November I am thinking because the JMA is a multiuse facility. There is no excuse to not beating BC next week though

Yeah but dazzler is a meathead and we’re the new fast. Plus it’s impossible to recruit at SU but Boston has unlimited D1 players all around them…..
