UCONN post game

[Archimedes]

The offensive line did a really nice job with pass protection today.

 

[guards98]

Will it?

If it isn't, none of us will not have any right to complain about the team going forward. This is the best season since 2018, second best this millenium, and we're finishing it with a shaky top 10 opponent at home. If we don't pack the dome for that, we don't have a legit fanbase.

 

[David321]

I have no rational reason to believe this but I still feel like we're gonna beat Miami in the Dome next week

LFG

 

[Keger03]

Tackling remains a concern but the D had four 3 and outs. 3 drives where they only had 1 first down (excluding the early TD run). They did get 3 on one of those because of the starting field position.

It’s not a great D, but good enough for this offense (which did leave a few points on the field).

I know tackling was a concern for much of the year but since Cal, has anyone besides Chestnut been caught not tackling and leading to chunk yards/TDs?

 

[David321]

I respect just about everyone on this board but I will say this, I for one feel so fortunate for this season right now. I know you guys have suffered so much this century, and as a newer fan (2021) I'm going to savor every moment of this.

Smart man.

It is hard to believe that we had the playcalling advantage but that 4th and 2 heave to nowhere by uconn was hard to believe

Said the same to my son as it happened. Gift.

Stanford did the same play against us and won the game, I think they were just trying to score quick and surprise the Cuse with the deep ball.

 

[Newhouser]

The whole game it seemed as if we were playing with a bigger lead than we actually had. Take the win and move on.

 

[Mchandl8]

We hit 8 wins…. That’s what I wanted pre season. I said 8 wins would be good, 7 would be ok but a bit frustrating, 9 or more would be amazing. I am very pleased with the season

 

[GoSU96]

A very mediocre football team with absolutely exceptional QB and WR play. We are middle tier ACC not upper , not lower, score reflects that.

don’t think we get it done next week but have a punchers chance. May be good for the team being a big dog.

Upper middle tier. There ya go. Everything else isn’t that controversial.

 

[Orangefan1]

We are a few bad calls and about what 8 points away from 10-1 for his first year of coaching in Syracuse NY that’s pretty incredible still more work to do but this team has gotten better

This is like the opposite of the Mrs Lincoln joke
Aside from the most important thing...

 

[Orangeman]

This defense ain't it.

Great season while the "rookie" D Coordinator figures out that you don't get pressure on the QB or Running Games with 3 or 4 guys and trying to out-athlete the opponent when you don't have Lawrence Taylor.

Feel like he'll learn about this, and meantime it's been a fun season and we're talking to Recruits we'd prob never talked to before

The importance of the QB in CFB really shouldn’t have to be stated *shrug* and Cuse has a top 5 one.

I will say UCONN should have had a few more turnovers. Miami makes those.

 

[GoSU96]

My anticipation is to beat UConn by 17 points. Even thirteen points would be an disappointment. Seven points is not acceptable. I got three disappointments three days in a roll. Tough to be a SU fan.

[Capt. Tuttle]

We probably need an attendance thread to discuss.

And uniforms

That’s why if we don’t land a stud qb for next season it could be brutal with the schedule we have

Agree. Someone with experience is a must.

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

Please walk up to your friends this week and invite them to Miami.

If they reply with “there are a lot of red delicious and honey crisp to be picked” please disown them.

Well, there (likely) will be snow.

 

[kirbivore]

This defense ain't it.

Miami game may not be a complete wipeout as they'll start pulling starters in the 2nd half when the lead is 20+

 

[JustPherU]

Whatever it takes in NIL money is a must.

The only thing this team isn’t is top three in the ACC
