Gotta be killing Froman
Played his last game ever for us weeks ago, and at the time, probably didn’t even realize it.
Go Cards!
Hasn't been as bad as it seems
The running game will completely dictate how well he plays. He played pretty well before last week. Not at all great, but well enough for us to win. If we can keep them from pinning their ears back and blitzing non stop or force them to bring a safety down and leave their corners on an island I think he will play well enough to win.

Just Great.
There goes our hopes for a Bowl game.
Overreact much?
Against Syracuse, Burke threw for 2 TDs and 0 INTs. He passed for almost as many yards (143) as our beloved running attack got (160). He averaged 5.7 yards per attempt; Bilal and company averaged 5.1 yards per carry.
Don’t get me wrong: I think our fates rise and fall with the success of our running game. But I don’t think there’s a huge dropoff from Froman to Burke. They have different strengths and weaknesses; what Burke gives up in mobility, he makes up in ability to go downfield. And let’s face it, both have had problems with accuracy.
In any event, I don’t think Rutgers is up to the task of stopping our offense, and I have complete faith in our defense to stop them. I think we win big tomorrow.
"Screech, you CAN'T elope!"
"Who are you calling a cantaloupe, you melonhead?"
We won at Syracuse with Burke
It can be done
