All time post season record of 16-9-1 .635 which leads all ACC programs. Most Memorable Bobcat Events Attended 2010 97-83 win over Georgetown in NCAA 1st round 2012 45-13 victory over ULM in the Independence Bowl 2015 34-3 drubbing of Miami @ Peden front of 25,086 Back to Top SBH General User Member Since: 12/20/2004 Post Count: 4,045 Status: Offline     RE: Syracuse    Posted: 8/25/2021 4:56:39 PM  Their fans are delusional. They lost 10 games last year, yet their fanbase is dismissive of MAC teams. I know, everybody's gotta look down on somebody, but this is ridiculous.

Most fans I know expect (or hope) to win but realize they can easily lose too. The Vegas spread should tell everyone this game could be really close.

Every single border state is legalized. Ohio is missing out on millions of taxable $. What is stopping our lawmakers?

I think if our football budget was nearly the same size as our opponent's entire athletics budget and our opponent's coach was just replaced unexpectedly after very few media experts predicted great things for this season, we'd have an understandable expectation of winning. I've followed the MAC long enough to see P5 fanbases disappointed plenty of times, but expecting to beat a solid MAC team as a P5 team isn't really delusional. Just fans being fans.

After starting 0-1, here's to an 11-1 regular season for Syracuse.

While I think the ACC is a bit overrated, at 1-0 I think we would deserve to be in the Top 25. I've seen crazier things happen.

Forget about talking about being top 25 or how great a season Ohio is going to have. This board will go straight to advocating an expansion of Peden to 45,000.

Interesting article, thanks. From what I've seen of DeVito and what they report about Shrader, the primary concern for the Bobcats is prevent plays these QBs make with their legs. DeVito tore up WMU a few years back with QB runs.
