Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 361905, member: 289"] - I don’t think our offensive output is going to decline. Pugh will be back for Pittsburgh. Lemon is already back and piling up the practices. He should be rounding back into the record setting form he had last year. And he and Sales will be a dynamite combination. Jarrod West is getting better with each game. They keep saying Beckett Wales will be able to do what Nick Provo did for us last year. The running backs are all young guys who will continue to improve. And Ashton Broyld is going to have a game where he makes national headlines at some point. It’s awfully hard for most college teams to keep up with this. Northwestern did thanks to two long punt returns, a tipped pass interception and a fumble return. How often will that happen? USC had the weapons to match us and then some. Stony brook got two big plays and, other than that, was never rally a threat to win the game. Minnesota just doesn’t look the part of a team that can keep up with the Orange. - (This is for Millhouse.) Even if they seem to be keeping up, the pace at which we play will wear them down and we will be dominating at the end of the game. - We’ve been giving up a lot of rushing yards because we played prevent defense vs. USC and because Stony Brook runs the ball all the time and has no passing game. With Gray, Minnesota has a limited running game. We will be able to stuff it and force Shortell to try to win the game. - Max Shortell, meet Deon Goggins, Markus Pierce-Brewster and Dyshawn Davis. - The Axeman talked to a Minnesota journalist about their team. AJ Barker is a walk-on who had barely played prior to this year. He’s been a huge surprise but he’s no Venric Mark or Robert Woods. The reporter described him as a “possession” guy who is unlikely to burn us. We’ll see. - UNLV, New Hampshire, (New Hampshire?) and Western Michigan are not preparation for facing what Syracuse can bring to the table this year. - Northwestern is better than Minnesota and we should have beaten them by four touchdowns. - It’s bust-out time. Tonight we find out if we are really good or just more interesting. 1-2 with 9 to do… LET’S GO ORANGE!!! [/QUOTE]
