Simply more exciting. Less slow dread where it just seems inevitable that the other team will score, therefore it is easier to be hopeful. I still remember back against unc when we ran the end reverse with Smelter for a touchdown and all I could think was “we left them too much time”...

Feelings? You continue to attribute viewpoints to me that I do not hold and haven’t expressed hence the straw man comments. The point I originally made was that it may not be as simple as you described. Professionals that have done this far longer and practice far more than our SAs make similar...

If you read my post you would see that I NEVER claimed that they set up correctly. By arguing that I did you are not arguing against the position I took and are arguing against a “straw man” that you created, hence yours is a straw man argument. My point was not that they made errors but that...

What db of ours believes that 2 DBs can cover 3 WRs and what calculus student can’t line up where they are supposed to? I haven’t read to the end of this yet but you seem to consistently set up an over simplified straw man and then attacking it. Many of the things that seem simple to you are...

Was just about to post “isn’t this also CPJ’s fault?” When I read this. All the losses of QBs and BBacks over the last few years must be his fault somehow because all the losses are on him and these cause losses;) This is football! There are numerous factors that coaches cannot really address...

I don’t think that the sacrifice is required and hope we will begin to see that this year although I am frustrated with losses like this one.

Love what you said!

I never claimed that he does more with less than anyone else. If Cutcliffe’s predecessor had an identical record to CPJ’s predecessor would he have improved on it? You may claim to know but you don’t so your argument is invalid. As I said the comparison is apples to oranges which is why your...

600 yards of non-explosive offense would be envied by many teams.

Of course that was not my point but your argument has problems since any comparison of apples to oranges has problems. If CPJ had gone to Duke with their lack of historical success do you think he wouldn’t also have greatly improved their performance such as he did at Navy? There are a ton of...

Duke has had all those tough games with Clemson and Georgia every year as well;)

If CPJ was calm and upbeat then many would complain that he didn’t seem to care enough. Seems to me he was terribly frustrated at losing a game that should have been won. That is an appropriate reaction evidently since many on this board seem to think that being even more upset about it is...

My prediction is that many of the predictions made here are wrong.

Just worked through all the posts. Sounds primarily like we lost 50 to zip and all hope is lost. CPJ seems like an optimist in comparison. Certainly there were some frustrating components (special teams) to the game but also aspects to be optimistic about. The season has just started and ranting...

Both of you guys are below room temperature.

Time will soon tell

Establishing out ability to get 4 or more from the bback will be a big factor. If they can’t stop us there it will be tough for them to win. What I am hoping to hear from the announcer is a Brent Musberger “they can’t stop it folks!” Statement. I don’t expect the defense to shut them out again...

Turnovers. If we receive more than we give them we will win

Since I don’t think the offense will score more than 60, I will choose under ;)

34-20 Jackets two big passes in the second half when they are Going all out to stop the option make the difference.
