This season I will once again be charting Syracuse’s games in terms of “winning plays”. I look at the results of each play and decide which team got the minimum they wanted out of the play. Rather than making instinctive judgments, I use a formula:
- On first down, the offensive team wants to get at least a third of the way to a new first down: they will have two more plays before they might have to surrender the ball and if they gain that same amount of yards on each of those two plays, they’ll get the first down. If they don’t make it a third of the way to a new first down, the defense won the play.
- On second down, the offense wants to get at least halfway to a new first down by the same logic.
- On third and fourth down, they want to get the first down.
- Penalties, if added onto a play by the referees, are added on to the results above. If the offense gains 5 yards on first down but there was holding and they lost yardage instead, the defense won the play. If a running back made a 20 yard run on first and ten and the holding was 15 yards downfield, turning it into a 5 yard gain, that’s still a win for the offense. If the defense is penalized and it’s tacked on, again the net result is what is evaluated. The penalties I’ve listed negated the play entirely and are a “loss” for the penalized team and thus a win for their opponent. .
- If a penalty was not tacked onto a play, it’s a lost play for the team being penalized. I'll count them separate from the other plays from scrimmage because I don't know if the intended play before the penalty would have been a run or a pass - so i wouldn't know where to put it in the chart below.
- A turnover is, obviously, a win for the team that wound up with the ball.
- On a kick-off a touchback brings the ball out to the 25 yard line. Teams still seem to be trying to kick the ball into the end zone and avoid a runback if they can, so any kick-off that results in the receiving team starting between their goal line and their 25 is a win for the kicking team. Beyond that, the receiving team wins.
- On a punt, a touchback takes the ball out of the 20. So any punt that results in the other team taking over from their goal line to their 20 is a win for the punting team. If the next change in field position is at least 40 yards, the punting tam has also won the play.
- A successful place kick is, obviously, a win for the kicking team.
- Any play that results in a touchdown is, obviously, a win for that team that scores it.
- A “victory play” where a team accepts a loss just to let the clock run out, is a win for the offensive team.
I will indicate in parenthesis how many yards there were to go to get a new first down, (if other than 10), unless it was for no gain or negative yardage. If it was a touchdown, (“TD)” a scramble/sack (“S”) a victory play (“V”) or involved a penalty (P). I’ll treat a scramble or a sack as a passing play as the Cuse.com play by play now tells you when it’s either of those two. 1R means first down running plays. 1P means first down passing plays, etc.

Comments: We’ve got a great chance to win any game where we average 6.4 yards a carry on first down runs. Actually, we’ve got a good chance to win any game where we have 24 first down carries and 30 first down plays. It’s also helpful to average 7 yards a carry on third down runs, especially when you only had to gain 12 yards to get those first downs.
The Bobcats were amazing. They went the whole 60 minutes without committing any infractions, (that got called). Also amazing was that we held a team that punted only once to 9 points. It was a game of long, time-consuming drives. There were a total of only 17 possessions. They had 8 of them, kicked three field goals, missed another, got trapped for a safety, failed on fourth down and threw an interception in addition to that one punt.
When I looked at Ohio’s secondary and saw everybody was under 6 feet tall and that we could put two wide-outs who were 6-6 and 6-5, a 6-2 slot and a 6-4 tight end out there, I thought our guys would play catch. That’s why I predicted a blow-out. Well, there were completions of 38, 39 and 32 yards – by Ohio. We had one of over 20 yards, and that was for 21 yards. I still don’t understand why we did go right to that obvious advantage immediately and take control of the game early. Maybe we wanted to “keep things under wraps” for Rutgers. But the Scarlet Knights certainly didn’t keep anything under wraps against Temple.
We won 86 plays in this game to 63. That’s +23. Similar games from the Babers Era:
2016 SU 101 Colgate 74 = +27 We won 33-7
2018 SU 109 Connecticut 83 = +26 We won 51-21
2018 SU 113 North Carolina State 96 = +17 We won 51-41
2019 SU 104 Liberty 84 = +20 We won 24-0
2019 SU 107 Duke 78 = +29 We won 49-6
Dino Babers has now won his opening game 5 times in 6 years. The one loss was last year at North Carolina.
In 2016 we beat Colgate 33-7. Our next opponent was Louisville with Lamar Jackson, who had opened by beating Charlotte 70-14. But they wouldn’t do that to us. No, they beat us 28-62.
In 2017 we beat Central Connecticut State 50-7, then lost to Middle Tennessee State 23-30.
In 2018 we beat Western Michigan 55-42, then beat Wagner 62-10.
In 2019 we beat Liberty 24-0. Our next opponent was Maryland, who’d opened by beating Howard 79-0. But they wouldn’t do that to us! No, they beat us 20-63.
Now we’ve beaten Ohio U. 29-9. Rutgers just beat Temple 61-14. But they won’t do that to us….

Totals since 2016: Syracuse has won 5,772 plays, (48.7%) and 23 games, (37.7%). The opposition has won 6,074 plays and 38 games. They’ve obtained their goals on 302 more plays than we have in 61 games, an average of 5.0 plays a game.
