I know it seems crazy that that much would be riding on that game, but I think it is a huge game for the Cuse,  Through the whole Greggers era, I waited for the tipping point to come.  That one moment where the snowball would start rolling down the mountain.  Well, it never came obviously.  Looking back it is easy to see that the right pieces were never in place to make that happen.  Now with HCDM, things are looking up for the Orange, and with this years schedule, what a perfect opportunity for that elusive tipping point.  We have a game that should be a win against Akron to start off the year, get the butterflys out, some of the early kinks worked out.  Then comes the trip to Washington.  It should be looked as a bowl game for us.  We need to pour our blood, sweat and tears into that game to come out with a W.  It is a huge game for us going against a heisman hopeful, and a nothing game for them.  Start out the season 2-0 with Maine and Colgate on tap at home before the bye and the Big East schedule.  4-0 coming into Big East play could be the tipping point that gets this program turned around.  3 or  4 wins in conference could get us back to a bowl game at 7-5 or dare I say 8-4?  This would help out immensely in recruiting and that extra month of practice heading into the bowl game for HCDM's young recruits is invaluable. 

It may not happen but it would be sweet! GO SU!  I can't wait for the season to start and for Shamarko to knock someone's head off!!
