Worried about Friday...

Last time we were in the dome, it was an awesome performance! And we had to overcome several things from the atmosphere that the Orange bring to the table. But am worried about the Cuse fans shaking keys inside their dome on Friday. Will we be able to relay plays effectively? Will it disrupt our signal calling? Not to mention there isn't any AC in there! How will that affect us? It will be close to probably 80* in there? Thoughts?

The dome won't affect you at all. Now, if Syracuse had like maybe the #1 WR in the country or something like that then you should worry. oh wait.......

Ishmael leads the nation in receiving. Bet you didn't know that. Of course he's not the best. But saying he's #1 really isn't lying.....statistically. Oh and Erv is top 10 in country as well. But, I agree, the #1 thing was just to open some eyes for those that think you're playing Southwest Missouri St this Friday.

Yes I knew that. I also know he's played in 6 games and only has 3 TDs. James Washington has more yards per game and more TDs in only 5 and half the catches. There's a Hawaii WR that's done even better than Washington in 5 games. Keke Coutee will be better than Ishmael when all is said and done. Darren Carrington and Darren Andrews likely as well. I also know had Cam Phillips not gotten hurt Saturday Ishmael wouldn't even be the best WR in the ACC and he isn't.
Stats don't tell the whole story.

Cam Phillips lead the nation until he went up against us. Ishmael wouldn't even start at Clemson.

Do you guys have a running game? If not it'll be hard for your QB to throw with our D-line pinning their ears back.

Actually to answer your question, NO. And yes, thats a major problem. We knew we're screwed because of no running game. We'll put up some points, maybe 17ish. But that won't be enough obviously.

I'll give you guys 7 against the first team, and 10 against our reserves, so you're right on track.

Erv Phillips, no.3 is the one I would be worried the most with. Ismael is a great hands receiver who is very tough on the fades 6'2" and somehow finds a way to get both hands on the ball with D.B all over him.
This might be the week where Syracuse opens up the play book to plays no one has seen before as last week they opened it up to the T.E.finally who ended up with 9 for 99 yards.
I am very interested myself to see what Babers has planned because in each of the last few weeks new plays were run at a very high tempo and it wore down the other teams in the 2nd. half as we out scored all of them in the 3rd. and 4th. quarters

Erv Phillips broke the ACC record with 17 receptions against a good front 7 from N.C.St.
He is coming off last year with 90 receptions and that was second on the team.
He knows how to find the soft spot in the defense and is fast when he gets going.

NC States front 7 has been less than advertised this year, and are not as good as Clemson's. Not to mention our back 4 is better as well.

Me too. I'm guessing that once again, students are going to fail to fill the hill.
