the game, I will have to take a quick bow about the stats on the video board.

0:03.5

You're welcome. If you were at the stadium watching the game, that's all, that's basically all me, right? Yeah. It's not punting stats. Don't even know. Did MasterMono even play? Never saw a punting stat. I'd say the squeaky wheel gets the grease, but you weren't even squeaky. You were like screeching. I was the screaming wheel. The screaming wheel got what he wanted. But back to the game, yeah, I think that the defense, look, they've played now eight quarters and given up one touchdown.

0:24.1

That's pretty good.

0:24.9

Now, I'm going to go ahead and say this.

0:26.5

Syracuse probably isn't the best offense they've seen all season.

0:29.3

They don't have a lot going for them.

0:30.6

Their quarterback apparently had food poisoning, which is what I'd say too.

0:34.0

Although the last couple times I've seen him play, it looks like you had food poison. He might have perpetual food poison. Yeah, but I mean, they came in having scored 21 points in three in the last two games. So you knew, but I mean, look, they scored 14 on Clemson, and they scored three on you. And I thought the past defense was really good. I thought the, they got pressure on them. But also, it's almost hard. Hey, good timing. I knew that was coming, the ice dump. I liked what the defense did as far as pressuring him, moving him off his spot. He didn't, I think he had one run that was worth anything. I just, I really, really like the defensive effort because those are the games that if the defense just loses a dude, just loses a dude,

2:17.5

and you give up an 80-yard touchdown, it could be a game. And they played really, like Shaheen said it was the best they communicated at an elite level, which was good to see because we're six games into the season now. Yeah, that's the thing. Syracuse's offense is not good. You're right. That is accurate. Thank you. But it didn't really matter sometimes the season. It felt like even against offenses that were not very good, it felt like they would find a way to make a breakdown of miscommunication or a couple of mistackles. There were probably a couple of mistackles in this game, but I thought it was impressive as every time Syracuse did start to drive, and it was only a couple times, but when they did drive at all, the defense completely completely shut them down like you didn't let them finish off the drives they gathered themselves and shut down they also some takeaways Joshua farmer has a strip sack yeah down near the goal line they turned into zero points but it was jereverse why you got to be negative sorry jervors could have had a chance to scoop and score it got tackled and then uh they also had a pick late in the game by greedy vans. It just, you know, it felt like an attacking defensive. It almost had a few more. Like it wasn't, there were no open guys to really throw to. And now part of that is because Syracuse doesn't have, you know, Marvin Harrison's not running around on that team right now. They don't have Jim Brown. I'm going to go through all the Syracuse. Kirby Dargar is not there. Donovanab's not playing quarterback. Man, they've had a lot of good players over the years, Syracuse. But, you know, they don't have great weapons on that side of the ball, honestly. But again, like I said, it didn't matter much sometimes. Quadry? Yeah, he was great. the missile, not the rocket, the missile. He scored a couple touchdowns in this place. Yeah, back in 91. But yeah, so, and we got to get to that in a second, too, about one of the greats from that 91 team was talked about in postgame. But the fact that there were no breakdowns, there was nobody just, that I can remember anyway, there was nobody just running free. They hit a couple of runs, which will happen. I didn't think the run defense was as exceptional as it's been, but they rotated a ton of players. I noticed on the first series of the second half, Ira, you had your backup defensive ends in the game on the first series. They are really making a point to rotate these guys in, to keep their play counts down, because they plan on playing in December and meaningful games in December, and they want to be as fresh as possible.

3:13.5

Offensively, you know, you look at the final numbers. I mean, Keon Coleman is that we have to, we'd be remiss.

3:18.4

We would be very remiss.

3:20.1

To not get, let's just go to Keon right now. Early in the game, he has a one-handed catch that was probably as spectacular a catch as you'll ever see. I mean, you can't do a whole lot more individually. He could have spun off the guy and scored. He could have cartwheeled off him and scored somehow. Just the incredible catch. Not Jordan's best throw, but he put it up there and Keon went and made a play, one hand to grab.

3:56.5

But behind him, leaping up like it was an alley-up. It was crazy. It was a huge day for him. He ended up having, I think, 140 yards receiving. Nine catches, yeah. Over 100 yards in pump returns. Yeah. He had a 30-1 taken off the board because of Conrad Hussey's multiple penalty play. Yeah, it's a two for one.

3:58.3

Another bogo there from Conrad Wesley.

4:00.7

But, no, Kianne Como is incredible. And, you know, he downplayed the need to do it with Johnny Wilson not being available. But that's a reality. Johnny Wilson's your number one receiver. Statistically, he had most receiving yards coming into this game. Had two touchdowns and a half last week. Right. He wasn't available today. and Keon Coleman just was sensational. I mean, I know what to say about him. You know, you, we knew this offense was going to be good anyway before he signed in May. But he, he literally, he's the guy that if you just want to project like, okay, you're playing a, you're in a close game at Florida. Are you in a close game in the ACC championship or if everything goes well, you're playing Georgia. They don't got people that can cover him because nobody does. You've got a special dude. You know what I mean? Like you, these other, and Johnny Wilson's like that too. He's a six, seven freak. So you've got two guys out wide that if nothing else works like Death Valley, for instance, you've got a guy that goes and makes incredible place because you got a guy that they don't have. You just have a different dude. And I think Jeheme Bell, if he gets 100% healthy, you'll see that out of him too. And Jordan Travis is Jordan Travis. But these two wide receivers, when Johnny gets back, you know, again, we think they have one of the best wide receiver quarters in the country.

5:05.1

It's nice that other guys got to catch the ball a little bit.

5:07.6

But I thought that, you know, Kian is just a next level guy. Like Pokey Wilson's a fine college football player, right? You won 10 games with him as your starting receiver. There was a time about six, seven months ago where I thought losing Pokey Wilson might be something we started like getting upset about during the season.

5:23.8

Because he made so many clutch receptions last year. But man, Keown Coleman is just a completely different level. It's almost like don't need a coach on this playoffice. Like, because he just does things that you can't, it's just there aren't dudes around the country doing that. And you're lucky to have them. Not lucky.

5:38.3

You earned it, I guess, but you have them.

5:39.3

Other teams don't. That's a nice wildcard. He was also his other, his long touchdown pass was a, was probably one of the first times we've seen Jordan really hit a receiver in stride. Yeah, that's a great throw. As he got lit up too. Yeah. And he, Keon hit the corner with a double move, gets open, gets some separation.

5:55.6

He didn't have to wait on it.

5:56.6

Right.
