I know this is a little thing that bugged me then and now


Jan 3, 2018, 9:28 PM

but should we have practiced in the dome the week leading up to the game?

I think it was just that one play that made a difference. We were about to go up 13-10 imo and that play happened. I think we weathered the storm and were about to take over and momentum went right back to Bama.

To be honest, I didn't quite understand that call.***

I can point to thousands of thing that might have...

been done differently but I doubt any of them would have changed the outcome of that game.

How about the first INT? If that doesn't happen we might

have scored and went ahead on that drive.

Me too. Wasn't our only other dome game at Syracuse? I just feel like the lighting and feel is different in a dome and extra practice there would help to acclimate. But I get what Dabo said about choosing Tulane, too.

I honestly don't think it made a particle of difference.


Jan 3, 2018, 9:59 PM

We just didn't make the critical plays and where we practiced was immaterial.

I think practicing in the dome wouldn't have helped us block their O line at all.

oline were blocking blindly because of the dome lights.

I think you have hit upon our problem. Our O line was trying to block their O line, instead of their D line! :)

Terrible decision in my opinion. It's pretty simple. The team would have been more comfortable in the dome had they been practicing there all week. There is no doubt about that. Going to Tulane was a dummy move. "Less distractions" is an excuse and "sentimental reasons" is just being selfish.

Alabama was the only reason were uncomfortable in the Superdome.

Please stop making silly excuses for the fact that Alabama kicked our butts.
