Thanks to all the Seniors!
Syracuse is all the way up to #13 on the nation. And one of the worst teams in the ACC is heading into the Dome for Senior Day in a primetime game on national TV. This has the potential to be an absolute bloodbath.
Syracuse heads into the Carrier Dome at 7-2 and Louisville is reeling from losing ever single one of their conference games. They have only managed to beat Indiana State and Western Kentucky. They are fresh off losing to Clemson last weekend 77 to 16. Petrino is reeling after the loss of Lamar Jackson, and apparently has no idea how to coach a team with less talent that the Heisman Trophy winner (not to mention is is personally an absolute scumbag off the field, but that's another story). I mean, I don't even feel it necessary to actually give an analysis involving skill positions, or who to watch, or what to expect. Dungey is going to run and/or pass all over Louisville, which after last weekend moved into dead last in defense in the ACC (it used to be Wake before last weekend). So for the 2nd weekend in a row, Syracuse has the chance to carve up the worst defense in the league. And Syracuse's Special Teams is still very good, made even better by no wind and playing indoors. Syracuse is going to roll in this game, and the only question is can Syracuse avoid any injuries to be as ready as possible for Notre Dame next weekend? In theory we should get a little Tommy Time in the 2nd half to rest Dungey for Notre Dame. Syracuse should be able to coast in the 2nd half. Sure, SU will give up a few big plays, but SU should have this game out of range in the 4th. No drama in this one. Syracuse over Louisville 58 to 30.
This game is available nationally at 7:00pm on ESPN 2 / WatchESPN. John will be live from the Dome. My wife is even in the Dome. I'll be doing a football game in the rain and will be watching on Saturday via DVR. But thanks to all the seniors on the team enjoying their last game in the Dome. I'll see you next weekend in New York. GO ORANGE!
