ACC schedule review: Syracuse Orange

This week, we're examining each ACC team's schedule, identifying the biggest games, looming upsets and most grueling stretches for each.

Last up: Syracuse Orange

Even though Syracuse went 4-8 in Dino Babers' first year, the Orange made significant progress. They should be better in 2017, but the schedule ranks as the most difficult in the ACC, featuring games against 10 bowl teams. Five of those teams finished ranked in the AP Top 25.

Toughest three-game stretch: Clemson (Oct. 13), at Miami (Oct. 21), at Florida State (Nov. 4)

The good news here is that there is a bye between the Miami and Florida State games.
