Maybe I'm not much of a theologian but if I'm not mistaken the Orangemen did in fact get their first win this year over Northwestern.
They did it in very un-Orangemen like fashion as well, with the offense. Duke carpetbagger Paulus went off for 346 yds, 2 TD, 1 INT. Mike Williams was the happy recipient of most of that, collecting 11 catches for 209 yds and 2 TD's. All you NCAA fantasy players need to the waiver wire on Monday and grab you some Williams.
The much improved defense got torched though. At one point Wildcat QB Kafka was an unsightly 32 of 35. He finished 35 of 42 for 390, 3 TD's, 1 INT. I know they are a run and shoot team but holy god that's awful D.
But I don't care. It's just nice to see SU get a win against somebody that isn't Buffalo or Notre Dame (oooh, does that still hurt Golden Domers?). Next week the Orange try to even their record at 2-2 in the Dome against Maine.

In other news, the Colorado Buffaloes held back the Hawkins Doomsday Countdown another week by beating Wyoming 24-0. While I'm happy that the Buffs got a win, I feel that everybody involved in that game gets a personal loss because of the uniforms. I don't know if it was throwback week or something but those jerseys would make the old school Broncos stomachs roll just a bit.

Mojo's personal University of choice, Colorado State University - Pueblo, handily defeated Chadron State 28-17, snapping Chadron's 28 games winning streak in the RMAC. Nice work.
