Why We Will Lose Colgate Edition

[PAcuse]

• Saunders Warning – WR Treyvhon Saunders is a big-play threat. If Syracuse’s secondary gets lazy even once, he can flip momentum with a home-run ball.
  
  
• Wynn-ter Is Coming – DB Tymir Wynn is a ballhawk, and Syracuse QB play hasn’t exactly been turnover-free. If Angeli floats one, Wynn might make him pay.
  
  
• Culture Shift – Colgate coach Stan Dakosty Fitzpatrick is building belief, shifting his team to an “input-focused mindset.” Hungry teams with nothing to lose can be dangerous.
  
  
• The Curse of 13 – Colgate was founded in 1819 by 13 men, with $13, 13 prayers, and 13 articles of faith. They wear the number like a badge of destiny. On the 13th play, the 13th drive, or maybe with 13 seconds left—don’t say I didn’t warn you.

If we lose to Colgate, the entire roster and coaching staff should be running a literal post-game marathon around the City of Syracuse by themselves.

How can approximately 120 people running together be " by themselves"?

Jim Browns senior year was 61-7, and it hasn't really been a contest since.

My grandfather used to attend all the games then. Ernie was his all time favorite and Jim was a very close 2nd.

My father graduated from SU in 1950. He said that they would "raid" each other's campus the night before the games. If his fraternity caught someone from Colgate, they would shave an S on their head and Colgate would respond in kind. After the heads were shaved, the victims were compensated with food and alcohol and everyone was happy.

Drop them off in Hamilton and let them run back.

I know this is a safe place to talk about things, and I have to admit that I also experienced the disappointment with the nachos. Once a beacon of light in my life, the nachos are an unlit pilot light of the furnace of my heart. Skimpy on the chips. New container reminds me of prison. No double cheese. Light on the jalapenos. I still ate them. Reluctantly. We use the nachos as a spark if the team is playing poorly. We probably waited too long in the Yukon game due to observing the disappointing nachos from afar, but we got nachos in the third quarter. The prior nachos, which were close to perfection, would provide an immediate change if Syracuse was struggling. The current nachos might have worked, and if they did, the delay was obvious until the very end of the fourth quarter. If we lose this game, it will be solely the result of the mediocre nachos, and this will be my fault. But I will DART it up before halftime and eat this slop if we are not up 14 points. I'll save that for the why we will win side of things
