Defensive battle so far. 0-0

Cuse has a freshman RB who looks solid. Sean Tucker.

Clemson playing some 3-4 caught me off guard. Breese is hurt.

Former QB recruit Garrett Schrader plays for Syracuse now. Bad pick in the red zone after a big Tucker run.

QB Schrader had 29 carries for 178 yards against Wake Forest. He's a big tough dude.

They called Clemson for holding in the middle of the line but how did the guy behind the QB miss the obvious hold on the guy who got to the QB? The lineman had him by the shirttail.
 
Remember this guy Chris Bleich, currently a RS-SO playing for Syracuse?


Career Overview: Enrolled at Syracuse in January 2020 after spending his first two seasons at the University of Florida … Named to the Spring 2020 SU Athletic Director’s Honor Roll … Played in 13 games for the Gators, including eight starts at right guard, as a redshirt freshman in 2019.

2020: Sat out the season due to NCAA transfer rules.

Freshman Year (2019 at Florida): Played in nine games, starting eight at right guard … Helped the Gators to an 11-2 record and the No. 6 ranking in the final Associated Press Top 25 poll … Blocked for a Florida offense that averaged 33.2 points and 430.5 total yards per game, including 300.7 passing yards per contest … The Gators topped 400 yards of offense in five of Bleich’s appearances and passed for 300+ yards four times … Made his first career start in the season opener versus Miami (8/24) … Against UT Martin (9/7), aided an offense that gained a season-high 543 total yards, including 231 yards rushing.


Chris Bleich
will forever be known as Dan Mullen’s first commit as head coach at the University of Florida, but the 6-foot-5, 308-pound offensive lineman had a pretty interesting recruiting process.


Bleich, who is from Plymouth (Pa.) and had been committed to Penn State for over a year, decided to reopen his recruiting process in April 2017. Although he committed to UCLA a couple of months later, the firing of Coach Jim Mora and the subsequent hiring of Chip Kelly caused Bleich to reevaluate his options. On November 29th, Bleich decommitted from UCLA and committed, sight unseen, to the University of Florida.

Today it's time to learn a little bit more about Bleich on a playing and personal level in this edition of Getting to Know.

Take us through the process that led to your commitment. What was that experience like for you?

"A lot was just due to the coaching staff and how much faith and trust I had in them. And once they told me I had an offer to Florida, I felt comfortable to say that I will be going to Florida with the coaches there. Like I said, I just had that trust and relationship with them and I feel like it was the best fit for me."
 
Cal vs. Oregon on espn now. Beth Mowins with the call. Be right back.
 
Clemson lost their whole offense with Lawrence and Etienne..
No wonder why they are struggling.
 
I think Pitt will beat Clemson next week. These teams suck.
Not sure, Pitt has a decent offense, but a Dog crap D.. Clemson still has a pretty good D but their Offense is crap with who they lost from last season.

Wouldn't shock me if Pitt beat them especially the way Pickett is playing.

No doubt they lost great talent, but they recruit top talent. They usually reload and continue to dominate.
 
Cool.....
Pitt wins out in the ACC and is in the CFP
At least it won't be the same four teams we see every year
Even if they win out they aren’t going to CFP. They can go to the Peach tho. Imagine this.

FIESTA- Michigan vs Notre Dame
PEACH- Penn State vs Pitt

I think Clemson’s biggest issue on offense is the OL. I guess they are battling the injury bug too. I don’t see them flipping on a switch this year on offense and all of the sudden start clicking. It looks like Syracuse actually has a nice running game this year.

They lost to a MAC school, they will trip up and lose again somewhere along the way, they always do….likely UNC.

Yeah, just checked some info on their running back Sean Tucker. He is from prime recruiting territory for PSU (and others) in Owings Mills, MD, but apparently no interest from PSU, had only 3-stars and 4 offers total. He was a standout in track.

Now he's grown from 190# to 210# and still has great speed. He ran for 157 yards vs Clemson, continuing his streak of 100+ yards in each game this year. A diamond in the rough, and now more productive than any of the PSU running backs.

While watching him, he looked like a Wisky RB. I checked his offer sheet; they did offer.

Really, don't think this should even be debated. Go read their boards, and most would agree with you. The QB gets the majority of the blame when things aren't going right, but that OL is a train wreck this year. Really a head scratcher considering their recent recruiting

Are the doners contributing less to Dabo’s Sunday’s Service collection baskets this year? Could be a letdown on OL’s enthusiasm and performance.

It’s pretty clear PSU has whiffed big-time on RB recruiting after a nice run with Saquon, Miles and Brown. Hopefully Singleton is the real deal, PSU needs him. May have to hit the portal for both QB and RB depth next year.
