Season Preview

Just kidding... I'm writing one up at the moment and will be running with it by the end of the week.

Oh yeah, and that football team that we all forgot about beat Buffalo 20-12 this weekend. As MJ at Nunes said... International Bowl, here we come!

We won something else!

A-Ro as MJ over at Nunes is a Magician seems to take to calling him has officially won the USAToday Player of the Week Poll after his performance last week.




It keeps getting better...

I need to be condescending towards SU more often...


Apparently when I talk depressing about the Orangemen, good things happen. Two days ago, the boys shocked the hell out of the world with a 38-35 victory over #18/19 Louisville... IN KENTUCKY.

Andrew Robinson decided he was going to come out of his shell, throwing for 400+ and 4TDs, including two to Taj Smith. So much for 0-3, wanting to have Greg's head after a 0-4 start, now we can sing the praises of the coach who got us our first big win since beating BC in '04. Isn't it funny how sports work?

Vote for Taj for player of the week while you have some down time as well. (And yes, I realize the Taj picture is in the loss to Illinois).

Now on to Miami(OH), (who got housed by Colorado this week) to make it a 2 game streak.

Opening Day Blog for the '07-'08 Season...

After the summer off... and a depressing fall so far I guess I'll get back at it.

To sum up the fall:
1) Jim Brown and Ernie Davis would be right pissed off at the state of our football program.
2) Our Major 3pt threat for the upcoming season is having to repair a busted knee.
3) Did I mention the Orange Linebackers are horrible?
4) Flynn looked amazing over the summer on the U19 team.
5) Greene looked unpolished, but has a ton of upside.


There's still potential in the football program to win a game or two. There is also the potential to have Steve Slaton and Pat White rush for 300 a piece against us... Lets see who shows up.

Despite the loss of Homebrew Drew, the hoops squad will look to be solid, returning Devendorf and Harris, while a very promising pack of newcomers, and getting Onuaku back from his redshirt year. The only major issue arising at the moment is how well our lack of size and experience in the frontcourt will play out.

I'll be back with more later.
