Syracuse heads back home after an unflattering loss in Florida to take on old rival Boston College. Somehow Syracuse is favored. Can Syracuse pick up a win against a division rival?
The defensive game plan is simple. Stop AJ Dillon and force BC to have to make throws. If Syracuse can stuff the box and keep BC in 3rd and long situations, that will put pressure on the BC Quaterback, who hasn't had the best season. BC is 101 in the nation in passing offense this season. Syracuse can take advantage with a defensive unit that forced a lot of turnovers last year, and are more than capable of making a few interceptions.
