Thoughts on Syracuse

[iceeater1969]

Go back and watch it. Singleton slowed down a little when he gained separation and turned to find the ball. Had he run flat out for the whole route, it would have been catchable. That was not just an overthrow, but also a let-up by the receiver.

Receiver broke away from defender toward pylon.

Qb threw more toward corner of end zone.

All good.

Lets all get it on same page

If the Jackets win, meet at Dinosaur BBQ after the game (and The Horse) to toast the team???

I know McCord looked pretty good, but hard to tell with Ohio playing super soft coverage all game and not getting much pressure.

I think we are going to run the ball well against their run D and control this game, I’m feeling like a 35-21 type of game.

Despite growing up in the south, I’m a firm believer in blue cheese as the official dip for wings… it’s blue cheese country up there.

Dinosaur BBQ is solid. I haven’t been to the one in Syracuse but was at the one in Rochester last year.

Me too.
Like hot wings w blue cheese and very cold beer at hooters ( back when enteraining customers)

Yeah, he made some good throws for sure, but a lot of throws were wide open. Might be a different line if he was forced to throw under pressure or into more tight windows. If the guy plays like Burrow, well, good for him.

Cuse just gave us a run for our money 6 games ago with a TE at QB…. Plenty of plenty of reason for caution. Also we have to fly up there so if we think jet lag impacted GSU game then that maybe concern here as well. Wonder how many days we went full pads in practice this week. Also we believe we ran a vanilla gameplan against GSU, anyone believe Cuse may have done the same to Ohio to save for our game? I expect this to be a close game, and hopeful our O can control time of possession with strong run game and keep McCord on bench.

GT 34 Cuse 31

I agree it will be close, but there’s no such thing as jet lag in the same time zone

Syracuse, Boston College and Georgia Tech are the three most improved teams in the ACC since the beginning of last year.

Miami should probably be in that group.

I agree it can be close, but I don't think it will. By not close, I mean at least 2 scores.

If we don’t beat Cuse then this team and season are in big trouble

Exactly. We play a team that was in a dogfight with Ohio for a half last week, and everyone wants to act like they're the '98 Bulls.

I don't trust BBQ north of Carolina...

You would be correct. To each their own, but Dinosaur BBQ was wholly disappointing.

I wouldn't recommend a southerner travel to NY for BBQ just like I wouldn't recommend a New Yorker travel to Georgia for a reuben.

Strongly disagree.

It will mean we are still in year two of rebuilding but it doesn’t mean the season is lost.

On the other hand, you and I agree that this game is critical to demonstrating whether this team has gotten to the next level of development or not. A win would be huge and open us up for a magical season. A loss would mean back to the drawing board.

I think it depends. I’ve had some great BBQ in Seattle, but the secret is that the owner grew up and learned to make BBQ in Texas, so the brisket tastes like something you’d find in a suburb of Houston.

I don't trust bbq from North Carolina, but that's my Georgia raising coming out.

That place is gonna be packed......

It's a chain restaurant? Even more of a reason to not trust it.

The OG restaurant stood alone in Syracuse for many many years. They have a few more now throughout NY. I’ve heard there is one in NYC that isn’t the same though I’ve never been. The one in Syracuse is legit.
