The Big USF vs. Syracuse Preview

It’s another terrific matchup for USF’s offense. Can Syracuse’s manic offensive pace make up for its horror-show defense and give them a chance to win?

Overview

Syracuse has taken on a radical new personality. Their last handful of coaches, all the way back to Paul Pasqualoni, set the Orange up to play as somewhere between a smashmouth and a pro-style team. After many years of middling results, with only three winning seasons since 2002 and never more than eight wins in a season, the reins have been turned over to former Bowling Green coach Dino Babers and his hair-on-fire offensive system.
