It is so hard to defend the triple option since you aren't use to defending it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Common Sense Posted December 23, 2023 Report Share Posted December 23, 2023 (edited) Good points. Plus most of their coaches are here. It's not like JMU was able to prepare well. I think it would have been a different outcome if Cignetti and staff were still there and fully prepared. Carpenter and Sarrat could start for us tomorrow. The two LBs probably need to gain 10-15lbs and our strength and conditioning will do them well. They struggled this game. JMU just didn't look prepared on D or coached up. Bostad will coach up the left tackle. He may play guard or be a rotational guy. Edited December 23, 2023 by Common Sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted December 27, 2023 Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 Somebody with a brain has to figure out these portal dates moving forward. Bowl season just isn't the same for the teams. Sure the younger guys get a chance to show their talents but so many players opting out for portal and/or draft. Florida St who is coming off an undefeated season has now lost 20 guys in the portal who won't be suiting up for the Orange Bowl. I don't even know what the line is for that game but Georgia by 50.

I think there's a Nole on here somewhere that can say more but between the CFP snub, the President/Admin looking to leave asap, and a few other programs essentially paying more it's been mass exodus out of Tallahassee. I know the Canes flipped a couple, Georgia did, Bama did and others. If I were guessing in this order it's $, $, $, and honestly player development. Going undefeated and getting snubbed doesn't speak well for them or the ACC as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the NFL vs NBA games on Xmas. NBA games were pulling 1.5m-2.5m. NFL games were pulling 20m+. Stars sitting out has wreaked havoc on gambling. I won’t place wagers any longer on bowl games. It’s too unpredictable. Edited December 30, 2023 by Naturalhoosier 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
