Wake Forest Game Day Thread

[Eric15]

Is there a logical reason why Culpepper was in the game? Sorry if I missed a post of someone explaining why.

 

[OrangeDW]

And last week and the week before

Yeah. And?

Being a Syracuse fan is punishing. We are phenomenal at giving a reason to believe, and then crushing that hope in the most painful way possible.

My guess is because Mahoney is a deer in headlights right now

 

[SaltLakeOrange]

It’s about even.

Then it may be about coaching.

 

[Ozcuse]

Bunch of babies. We’re all disappointed and frustrated today but geez.

Negativity is better than apathy. Keep losing and you'll see more of the latter than the former.

 

[JeremyCuse]

Some real head scratchers during this game from the coaching staff. 4th and 5 and you take Mahoney out on the fly, rush in Culpepper to snap the ball with a second on the play clock??

Staff has been given a pass because of the Clemson win but in clutch situations they have been bad

People won’t acknowledge the shaky moments this staff has.

We got beat by a Better version our offense. Simple as that.

Just wondering if dungey is done for year.

 

[dasher]

I think we have enough talent to beat Wake Forest

Yeah. And they have the talent to beat us. we aren't better than them and they probably aren't better than us. we got some big breaks in this game. the fumbled punt and the blocked extra point. That got us 10 pts. And they aren't your usually pts off turnovers. We aren't all that talented. The talent pool is getting better. Just not fast enough. I will grant that the coaches had a very bad day today.

 

[Halfmooncuse]

Oh well when your a SU. Fan what else is there but a loss and hope for next year

 

[OrangeDW]

Chalking up the Clemson win to “luck” is just stupid. No recognition of good/bad matchups, etc. There’s being frustrated and negative, and there’s being an irrational baby.

 

[elimunelson]

Insult to injury is they took game off in Boston for the bruins pre game

 

[OrangeDW]

Then it may be about coaching.

Yeah, let’s change coaches every two years. Good luck with that.

Were you in the sack Mac Pack? Because many were.

Is Babers known for making excuses?

How about this program has absolutely sucked for the entire 2000’s and he’s trying to turn it around, but it takes time. Is that an excuse?

Seriously. Have people forgotten this fact. I recall most prognosticators, including even Dino saying at the beginning of the year, that we could be better this year, but end up with the same record. Isn't that exactly what we've seen so far? By the way, we can still end up with 5 or 6 wins, and have a better record than last year.

 

[dasher]

People won’t acknowledge the shaky moments this staff has.

Oh, they should. But overall, they have done a great job with this talent. Are there things to dislike. Of course. Unless you are a Pats that is going to be true for most teams

 

[raf4488]

Damn that's a TD if Ish isnt limping

 

[Halfmooncuse]

SU ugh

 

[Ozcuse]

I can't watch anymore

 

[PhatOrange]

Stick a fork in it. We don’t have one player on defense who can make that play.

 

[SaltLakeOrange]

Their coaches are bettter than ours. Or they are better at coaching during games. Or they are better at preparing their equal talent. What do you think?

 

[orange79]

They're not good even if he comes back. They had to win today. They stopped playing after halftime. This is on Babers and Ward.

What are you doing here? I thought you were done.

 

[PhatOrange]

My guess is because Mahoney is a deer in headlights right now

Guess I was wrong but I’d have benched him. He’s not very good.

Why not take a timeout then before such a crucial 4th down play?

 

[Ozcuse]

FSU down 3 after just getting a turnover with 6:40 left in the 4th. I recommend watching that instead of another SU shatshow
