so here we are, 1-4? since i began following this program, there simply has not been a worse season. i go back to 1991, though i know the program goes much further back, with high points and low points. It's just hard to see the program at this point, since i've never been here.
I love SU football. Most cuse fans will tell you it's a basketball school. that's just baloney. it is at this point, because the hoops program is excellent, sho nuff, and the football team has fallen so low. but those of you who do follow the program know that the rich tradition, the program has.
Let's break this down, real quick, before Mike Vick, and including Bruce Smith, name me 2 or 3 other Va tech players in the NFL.
I respect Frank Beamer and beamer ball. He's done a great job, and I like his program. I love it actually. He's built it from nothing.
Funny thing is. JoePa went through some very tough season this past decade, but his program has picked up.
I'm not saying we shouldn't have gotten rid of P. I think it was just frustrating to be stagnant for so long, so i understand the program going in another direction. it's just hard to see them hard so far so fast.
another program which went through a coaching was the colorado buffaloes, who won a tital in 1990 and built a very successful program under bill Mccartney. in the old big 8. when nebraska and oklahoma were all that. i mean serious teams. mccartney was having a very difficult time, and alumni were calling for his head. ad decided to give him another shot. program went 6-5 from a 1-10 season, to its first bowl in many years and the rebuilding was on.
so, here's my take. i think the defense is much better under robinson, who is a defensive guy for sure. Great.
but offensively, this team is just really unbearable to watch. it's just painful. Defense plays 50 of the 60 minutes. against rutgers. they only gave up 17 points.
I also like the pro option we used to run. look at how successful it was for so many seasons. College teams had a very tough time preparing for it.
i still just don't understand how the talent level dropped so far.
look at FSU - they're beatable, maybe not down there, but in the down, same with virginia,
how do you not win your home games. you have to be better than that.
do you have to start from scratch

I think 'Cuse is going to win it all this year. There is actually a glitch in the BCS computer system that awards the worst team on Earth (including high schools) a berth in the Rose Bowl. They will win by forfeit as the other team (TBD) will be struck by the bird flu.
